Little Hoff Upadate Week 2

So this is was the big week. I met with my Dr. for the first time. I am going to a Dr. down at the Lake of the Ozarks which is about 30 - 40 minutes away. I was very nervous going, how this was my very first time and all, but I think I handled it ok. With us not telling anyone, of course Farmboy couldn't go. He couldn't think of a way to explain to his father why he needed to be gone by 11:00 in the morning. I really hated that he couldn't go.

My first instinct with my Dr. is that I trust him. Which I think in my position you would have to. He is not overly-friendly, but I think I can break him of that. My whole appointment was very cut and dry. We did this, then this, then this and we were done. I did run into a problem, when wanted to take my blood. Which I am not afraid of needles, they have never bothered me. What IS the problem though is that my veins are very thin and very deep (they are the only things on my that are very thin. HA) So after two nurses at my Dr's office and the Dr. himself trying to get my blood, they sent me to the hospital. Where they proceeded to draw my blood between my knuckles. But that was the bad side, the good side is that I had my very first ultrasound. It was amazing! I couldn't hear Little Hoff's heartbeat but I could see it pumping and it was going just as fast as it could. I personally took it as a sign as Little Hoff was saying "HI mom!" The Dr. said everything looked great and that he wanted to see me again in a month.

 Very dramatic huh? Not that I'm going to be a diva this pregnancy or anything. Ha!

After which I treated myself to McDonald's. I can not seem to get enough McDonald's. It makes me and Little Hoff happy to dine on McNugget's and Cheeseburgers. I then headed home started reading "What to expect when expecting" That book has a lot of words and not very many pictures, so I'm kind of skimming it. I am also along the lines of maybe knowing less is better. So if I have a question, then I have a reference book but I don't want to know all the things that COULD be happening to me.

Other news this week. We officially told our first people. I made some adorable announcement cards for the grandparents and we told my parents Saturday night in parking lot of Crackle Barrel. My mom sobbed and blubbered and sobbed and just keep saying "I can't believe it, I can't believe it". She then had herself so worked up that she couldn't concentrate on the menu to then order for supper. To say the least they were very excited. She is already planning on what Christmas will hold.

Thoughts & Feelings:

I am Eight weeks pregnant.

Little Hoff is the size of a blueberry. How Cute!!

This week I had my first bout of morning sickness.

I have been extremely tired - I'm not sure if I can blame that all on the pregnancy. I have been gone every night for the past two weeks and have been fighting allergies as well.

I've been nervous about getting sick at public places.

I feel worse as the day goes on.

I feel like I'm letting Farmboy down because I'm not cooking supper.

My house is a total mess AND I don't care.

I gave myself permission to do absolutely nothing on Saturday. Farmboy was gone for the day and I thought to myself how many more Saturdays am I going to have that I will not have to answer to anybody and I stayed in my PJ's all day.

I have not had that much of a appetite or I eat half of my plate and get instantly full.

Smells are starting to bother me.
