9 weeks 6 days

Today is the day before week 10. I'm excited to get this first trimester over with so that I can finally be in the "safe zone". Tomorrow I have an appt so that the doctor's office can take my blood and run all of those necessary tests. I'm not too excited about it but I know that it has to be done.

We had some visitors over this past weekend, David & Jessica, and they bought us the stroller/car seat combo that we had all picked out. I have to admit, I was worried that we wouldn't get it because it's such a high dollar item but thanks to my Craigs List Queen friend she found one practically brand new for a fraction of the price. Lorenzo just looks at the carseat and he's like "hurry up with the baby already". He's ready to be a daddy!

I have been feeling pretty good today. I didn't get any feelings of nausea which is rare. I have been getting it for the past 2 weeks. It's been a hard lesson to learn but I have to eat more often then I would like to. I can't allow myself to get hungry or I will be sick as a dog and by that point it's too late to make it better. It's against everything that I ever learned about eating. I have to eat before bed, eat before hunger hits & eat when I'm hungry.

I few weeks ago I got worried because my few pregnancy symptoms started to diminish and I am starting to go through that this week. My breasts aren't near as sore as they have been and I have been able to stay up later then usual. I get scared when I don't have those symptoms but I'm sure that will all be put to rest tomorrow at my appt. I'm hoping that they let me hear the heartbeat...if it's not brought up I'm def going to ask.
