16 weeks today!

We had our checkup today and everything is going great  the doctor says. The heartbeat was 150 today:) It's amazing! The doctor wrote a RX for Reglan for nausea. I am hoping this works so I can start feeling better.

We go back June 17th for the sex of the baby and the second part of the early screening. I can't believe we're already here... This pregnancy is flying by.

15 weeks today! 175 days to go

It's been a rough week! Vomiting everytime I eat and feeling a little dizzy is the norm here lately. When I called the doctor's office to let them know the reply was the same as always. BRATTS diet and rest. I am so looking forward to the day this sickness ends, lol. It's taken a toll on me and my poor husband. Imagine having the stomach flu everyday.. What kind of person would you feel like? Exactly, a monster. I love when I am talking to other pregnant women and they have no idea about morning sickness. Bless their hearts!

I was reading my weekly emails that I get from Baby center and soon I should be feeling some movement! Some women say they do feel movement at this time but not me. All I feel is sickness, heartbearn and lovely acid reflex. It's weird how the sickness goes away for a couple of days and then hits you for a week afterwards.

I start my prenatals back up next Wed. and hopefully this time they stay down. Heartbearn and acid reflex has started and boy oh boy does it suck. I was hoping to gain some weight for my next doctor appointment but I have a feeling I have lost another couple of pounds. We'll see...

Justin and I have been working with our dogs. We have one of my old baby dolls that we carry around and pretend it's our real baby. Our oldest dog Rocky is great with the baby, Emmy on the other hand still needs a lot of practice. She is very aggressive and jealous. Just when you think she is getting use to the baby, we lay it down and she is up on the couch growling at it. OH BOY...I really want to keep her around but if she attacks my real child we will have a problem and she will have a new home.

We realized that after having my nephew stay with us last month she needed some help! My 2 year old nephew was eating a cookie and Emmy decided to jump and snap at his face. Luckily she didn't get him because he threw his little arms up and Justin was on her like glue.

Hopefully now til the baby gets here Emmy will have been trained enough! I am hoping for her sake!
