Pregnancy Revelation: Egg McMuffins save lives. If this Mc Donalds delicacy wasavailable 24/7 I am pretty sure I would not have morning sickness, I swear it is the cure all!!! Seriously, nothing satisfies my morning sickness like the greasy goodness of fake cheese, butter, an oddly perfectly round fried egg on a delectable english muffin. Anyway, enough rambling about the mcmuffin. Long story short, my morning sickness (I like to call it 3/4 of the day sickness) is back in full force, however if i keep a constant stream of food incoming it seems to help.
I have a new definition of hunger after experiencing pregnancy, you are never just kind of hungry. Its like you are fine, maybe a little nauseous one minute and then it hits you this ravenous, cant be ignored, gotta get food now or someone's going to get hurt hungar. I'm talking I'm in the car and i search through my purse for an old banana hungry. Its insane!
I do feel like the baby is growing, i have not had cramping so much as has been described in the 10000 pregnancy websites I've visited but kind of a pulling/stretching feeling. I think thats my uterus growing, gross but cool! :) I have to unbutton my pants when I sit down (TMI, I know) because they hit at just the wrong spot. I like to call it the growing baby inside of me, but it could very well be the previously mentioned ridiculous hungar/egg mcmuffins as well. I like to think the cause is my rapidly growing little one!
Tomorrow I will be 9 weeks along. I read that as early as 16 weeks they can determine the sex of the baby. SO EXCITING! Our next appointment is on February 20th, I cant wait. Its so reassuring to see that heartbeat, it puts my nerves to rest. I am going in to do blood work tomorrow, and we have decided to not do the testing to determine the chances for downs. To us it wouldnt matter, it would be ours and we'd love every ounce no matter what!

Mary, I've got tears rolling down my face. Partly because of how sweet you are in talking about loving every ounce of your baby, partly because I'm pregnant too and I cry at everything, but mostly because I KNOW THAT HUNGER RIGHT NOW, and there's nothing to eat in this office!!
