update day

it's been a little while, so i thought i would update. last week i got hit with either an awful case of IBS or a stomach bug. either way, i was a mess from thurs-sun and it was awful. i actually called the doctor and went in on that saturday to make sure it wasn't the baby. thank goodness the baby, teeny as it was, was fine. but my stomach was awful. i am thinking it was the stress of j losing his job, my work, and my stomach and digestion being horrible. i am still not 100% back to normal, but i can eat and function. i am also eating probiotic soy yogurt to help things. although i had to skip it today since i felt yucky in the morning.

good news though ... we got to see baby h on the ultrasound (on 6/18). it was so tiny though, crown to rump length was just over 3mm, so no heartbeat was visible yet ... i was just 6 weeks at the time, so we weren't too disappointed. next u/s isn't till this coming monday (6/27), so so so so many hopes and prayers that we see a nice strong heartbeat and a healthy sized baby. i will be just over 7 weeks, so everything is crossed!!!!!!!!! i think we can relax a little if that u/s is rad.

overall i feel good, nausea is like there on/off, but i can still eat. i am turned off by many foods, but the plain simple stuff is good. i am not really eating too much breakfast.... early morning and late night aren't my feel good times. but overall i cannot complain. i am enjoying every minute and cannot wait till monday <3 when we get to see our little bear again.
