I'm sure all new expecting mothers share this fear of having twins. I haven't went for my first sonogram yet, and I haven't heard the baby's heart beat. So technically, it could be twins, and I just don't know it yet. Oh lord.
I believe the most favorite thing to say to a newly expecting mother is: "You're going to have twins!" People get some sort of thrill out of making pregnant women feel like they're about to throw up, as if we don't feel that way enough.
I'm not saying I'd jump off of the top of the Empire State building or anything, but I would probably be pretty crazy for a while, say 20 years. I mean having twins is a super serious matter. You have to think about the fact that everything will be doubled. Double strollers, double diapers, double wipes, double clothes, double the college tuition. Oh lord, now I feel like I'm going to throw up.
If I happen to be pregnant with twins, please pray for my husband. He'll need it more than anyone. I'll be sure to update on Wednesday after my doctor's appointment. It's funny. I use to pray for doubles or triples in softball. Let's pray for a single now!
Peace and Love!

Emotional Much?
It amazes me how many emotions run through my mind on a daily basis. One second, I could be flying off the handle, and the next, I could be crying my eyes out over a stupid tv show. I've always been pretty tender-hearted, but this is taking it to an extreme. If any sweet moment at all comes on the tv, it's over with. For instance, watching The Blind Side today, I started crying while watching Michael playing football. REALLY? What's sad/happy about football? Actually as I'm sitting here right now, I feel like crying, over nothing at all. I am such a titty baby these days.
And when it starts, there's not chance of it stopping any time soon. I'm an emotional ball of tears is what I am.
Another prego symptom I feel the need to fuss about is my insane sense of smell. Usually cleaning out my rabbit's change is no big deal, but today I got super sick. I mean I actually throwed up because of the smell. But anywho, I guess it all goes with being pregnant. Just don't say anything to make me mad, or be too sweet, or stink, and we'll all be okay.
Peach and Love until next time.

As I sit here eating pineapple chunks with a glass of grape juice, trying to decide whether or not to do some much needed homework, I remember I haven't posted lately, thus giving me an means to push my homework back a little further. Plus, today has been a very eventful day; it was my first prenatal visit. I know my family members want to know how it went, so I'll just post here because most of them religiously follow my blog---hail to the true followers.
My honey decided to take the day off to go with me to Valdosta, even though he had to drop me off at school twice and pick me up twice. By the way, he got lost in between VSU and Lowes, which I must say is a pretty difficult feat. I even drew a map with street names, but I forgot he was a man. Men take no advice from women, especially directions. But anywho, kudos to my husband and his great directional skills.
After I got out of class, we headed over to Southern OB-GYN, with my stomach churning inside. Overall, the experience wasn't bad, just slightly uncomfortable. If anyone has had a pap, the prenatal check is the exact same. They also had to draw my blood, which I'm not very good at at all. I got a little queasy, but it turned out okay.
Positives: LOVE my midwife, Teresa Johnson. She seemed very thorough and did not treat me like one of the 300 patients she sees, even though I know I am. Most of the staff were pretty nice, as well as the financial adviser.
Negatives: My honey couldn't come back until they put me into my own room, which took about an hour. The lady who took my blood was sort of rude, but hey, if I had to look at and draw blood all day, I'd be a little cranky too. They only do 4 ultrasounds the entire time you're pregnant.:(
They didn't do an ultrasound today, but my appointment for my glucose test (ewwww) and my first ultra sound will be in three weeks. Let's home I'm not having twins.
9 more weeks until we know what the baby is! The million-dollar question is: what do you want it to be? I want a boy for the sake of my husband, but either would be perfectly fine by me. I know everyone says it, but as long as it's healthy, I don't care what it is.
Until next time, peace and love:)
