Holy crap! Usually I remember when I'm a whole week more pregnant than I was before, but this time it has snuck up on me. I start to lose track of myself when I get the babysick like I have been again lately. The only difference between 3rd trimester babysick and earlier babysick is the fact that I am emotionally and physically wrecked after puking (even once) the earlier I am in pregnancy. As time goes on, I feel fine but I physically just want nothing more than to ball up with my cats and Shawn in a blanket. It exhausts me and it makes my throat raw. I can't even worry about what it's doing to my teeth enamel. Seriously, who pukes mostly everyday for 6 months+? I've said it before and I'll say it many more times: Being Pregnant is WEIRD.
Tonight we are going to look at cribs and finish registering at Babies R Us. We are very excited for that! Last night we checked out the hospital near our home in case of transfer during the home birth and it is so nice! So quiet and so clean. I'm sure we won't need to go there but if we do, I'm happy with that hospital.
After the next 2 weeks go by it will be damn near all-baby all the time. Kind of excited for that, too. My first prenatal with the Home Birth Midwife is the day before baby classes start. Then we have the baby classes 2 hours/week for 6 weeks.
Nightly activities for now include eating ice cream in bed and watching the baby move ferociously between 7PM and 10:30PM while Shawn and I poke and play with him or her and s/he responds in kind. This is getting fun; we can't even imagine how amazing it will be to sit and stare at our actual baby. Every little common jiggle seems amazing!
The 10 (to 12) week count down starts next week! Belly explosion ahead!

Sorry you're feeling sick again. :( It will all be worth it soon though, mama!
Wow, time is flying! I'm still hoping and wishing that your sickness goes away. I can't even imagine how awful it is to throw up so frequently. Have fun looking at cribs and finishing registering! Your baby is so lucky to have the two of you for parents.
I was thinking of you this morning while I was puking in the toilet. Wait a sec....hahaha.
No really, I did! Because I thought "how the hell has she been dealing with this for so long?" You poor, poor girl.
Good luck at Babies R Us. I've heard horror stories about getting lost for hours and coming out with nothing at all.
@Morgan, thanks! You are SO right!
@Heather, I know!!! I remember finding out like it was yesterday!
We had SO much fun at Babies R Us. We feel lucky to get this baby, too :o)
@JustMe, haha!!! Thank you! I totally get it :o)
Babies was alright; we went through the ENTIRE store and didn't realize it took almost 2 hours before we were almost to our "done" point.
