“morning” sickness and Fry’s

I’ve been nauseous for the last couple of hours. I can’t tell if it’s from pregnancy or from my headache. My headache isn’t that bad and I normally don’t get nauseous from headaches unless they are really bad. I’ll do anything not to throw up though. I hate throwing up. I suppose that’s a bad thing because I figure that my body is wanting to throw up for a reason… but I won’t do it unless I can’t contain it any longer. I hate throwing up.
I’m so tired but we got our new TV tonight (once Preston found out it was in town he decided to go pick it up instead of letting them ship it the rest of the way to us) so Preston and TJ are setting it up and hooking up the direct TV, DVD player, surround sound, playstation 2, game cube, etc., etc. :tv: I want to see how it all looks when it’s done and putting all this stuff together isn’t exactly quiet, so I’m staying awake. But, Preston just realized that he doesn’t have the HD cables he needs so they went to WalMart to get them. They will make late night runs to WalMart for just about anything.
We went to buy a TV stand tonight after we picked the TV up. We were at Fry’s and they were out of the stands that we wanted to they sold us the display for a really good deal. Well, the salesman got a few guys to help him get the stand down and stuff, and once they got it down one of the guys looks at me and says “ya goona put your 20″ tv on this thing?! hahahaha”. Seriously, do I look ghetto? Do I look like I would buy a 70″ TV stand and put a 20″ TV on it? I just gave him an “excuse me?” look and said “no, it’s actually as big as that one” pointing to the 70″ TV. Okay it’s not 70″ but it’s 61″… or 62″. I never remember. Anyway, I was mad. I though that was extremely rude. Aparently I was the only one who heard it because when I told Preston and TJ what the guy said they wanted to turn around and give him a piece of thier minds. I mean really, I don’t care who you are or how big your TV is… that guy was out of line. Maybe I took it wrong and should laugh about it. But what if I really was putting a 20″ TV on that big ass TV stand? That would be a really mean thing to laugh at someone about. Maybe I’m just too sensitive to people. Maybe if you are putting a 20″ TV on a 70″ TV stand you should be laughed at. I don’t know.

1st appointment

I had a progesterone test done last week and I got the results back Monday. They like you to be at least between 15-20 and I was at 28! I was very happy to hear that! So I am now 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant. They moved my first appointment to Nov. 9th at 1pm. I should still be able to see the heartbeat by that time, so hopefully I’ll come home with baby’s first picture.
I feel a lot better about this pregnancy than the last one. I actually feel pregnant this time. I had hardly any symptoms last time even up until the time I miscarried. My nipples have been sore since the day I ovulated, I wish I could just go topless everywhere. I’m also starting to feel nauseous in the mornings, and I’m having to eat more frequently. I’m doing really well so far with eating well and eating small, frequent meals. I’m determined not to “eat for two”! I do need to work harder on my Coke craving. My doctor said it’s okay to have one a day but I know it would be best for me to not have any at all. I really need to work on that. I am drinking a lot of water though. I’m trying to drink 5 20oz bottles a day. If I don’t drink a lot of water I get digestive issues. They aren’t fun. I won’t gross you out by going into my pregnancy digestive issues.
The strangest of all things though is my sleeping habits. I used to go to bed really late and get up around noon. Now I can’t stay awake past 11pm and I always wake up around 9am. I’ve never been a person to wake up early on my own. Even the other day when I did stay up until about 2am, I got up at 9:30am wide awake. It’s weird for me but I actually really like it. I’ve been soooo tired lately. It’s amazing how much impact something the size of a sesame seed can have on your body!
I need to go take a shower and get dressed. Today it’s cold and cloudy outside. I loooove it. It’s only supposed to be in the 60’s all week. Right now it’s about 57 degrees. It’s one of those days where you can’t help but be lazy. It’s nice.
