Seriously!?!

I now understand why woman with their pregnant bellies get annoyed at random people touching their stomachs. I don't even have a true belly bump yet, but a bloated bludge. But people around me that know I am pregnant think they should rub, where my bump should be, like they are making a wish. Really??? To start off with I am not a touchy feely person, I'm not a big hugger or really that affectionate, so for people surrounding me touching my stomach is already getting to me, bad part is I know it will only get worse.

Anyways on to the next. Right now I am 11weeks3days, I am still very nauseous, pretty much all the time and can't seem to get enough to eat. Although I have had many food aversions. I can't even walk past the meat dept in the grocery store without gagging. So needless to say a lot of fruit is bought, along with junk food that looks so yummy I can't resist. Bad part, we have nothing to eat for dinner. Although cereal is something I think is so good right now, it doesn't keep you full very long. Hopefully in the next two weeks when I reach my 2nd trimester things will change. But for now, I am excited just to have this baby growing inside and will take anything that comes my way.

Here we go....

After much debate I have decided to start a blog for baby McConnell. I love reading other people's blogs, but want to make sure I'm not one of those mom's giving way too much personal information for the world to read :)

As of today we are 10weeks 3days into this pregnancy. We have had two ultrasounds,

7 weeks

and one at 9 weeks

and we are progressing right on schedule. Right now I am just counting down the days to 12 weeks in hopes that this thing they call "morning sickness" that actually last all day long, goes away. The next big step will be around 18 weeks when we get to find out the gender of this little peanut, who is actually the size of a kumquat this week (who even knows what a kumquat is lol) I had to google it. It’s a small citrus fruit that resembles an orange, but is actually the size of an olive. So lets just say the baby is the size of an olive this week lol.

Well here goes the first post. Please continue to keep us in your prayers since we are still early in this pregnancy that everything continues to go smoothly and baby McConnell stays healthy!!!
