5 Weeks 4 Days

I am starting to calm down about the pregnancy. I still have worries but I have moved most of them to the back of my mind. It took me a couple of weeks to work through my fears, and now it's better.

As far as symptoms go...I have been very tired lately, and I can no longer make it through a movie without having to go to the bathroom. I am still not sleeping normally. Last night was good, but I have been having trouble falling asleep at night and/or waking up very early and then having problems falling back asleep. Saturday was really rough - I felt nauseated all day. I never vomited, but I felt like maybe I should.

Ben and I have been talking about the baby's gender. I hope it's a girl, and Ben says he doesn't care as long as the baby is healthy. His response makes me feel a little guilty about wanting a girl, but obviously I also want a healthy baby - I think of that as something everyone always wants! We also have NO idea about a name for either gender. Good thing we have lots of time.

Thanks to everyone for their nice comments. I like seeing who is reading the blog. Be sure to vote on the new poll before the ultrasound on the 11th - it's kind of fun!
