So far so good Mood
Saturday, September 5, 2009 | A Happy story

   I had my first pregnant ultrasound this week. I'm having a little black dot! They're so quiet and well-behaved at this stage aren't they? Meanwhile my body is going to mush. I used to lift weights and run every day just to keep my body size normal w/ my lazy thyroid and cope w/ mild depression. Since the stimulation I've had to stop both. I'm walking now, 5 miles a day but it's just not the same. My arms , legs & butt are getting so flabby. I'm afraid of being overweight but I can't intensify my workouts. no,no,no. I'll do whatever it takes to keep baby healthy. My food plan is fine, so I just have to deal... 

 

   My husband was laid off from his job. Impeccable timing don't you think?I try not to worry about what we're going to do. We've made it this far so I guess we'll just have to figure it out. I dream almost every night that I lose the baby. It muse be subconscious because I'm really proud at how optimistic I am about everything so far. It may not sound like it when reading this but I am really happy , just cautious and realistic too.

   Oh well, let's see what next week is like...

    You're having a little black dot! lol too cute.
    I keep checking my stomach for any bump to emerge, and I think it's going to freak me out a little...I'm also going to love every second of it! Try not to worry about your body, in 9 months it'll bounce right back to what it was before hahahahaha!!! Im sorry about your DH's job, I hope he finds a new one soon. I also consider myself cautiously optimistic about this pregnancy and pray that God will keep this baby growing!! Hoping the same 4u!

    Thanks! I think my hubby is going to be fine, can't help but be a woman and worry just a tad, but I'm nowhere near panicked, trust me :). Keep feeling for that happy little bump. It's gonna poke out and say "Hi mama!" any day now.
