I guess I am a pretty lame blogger, I haven't posted in a little while now. There are two main reasons for this. First being that I have been super sick with a cold all week. You never really appreciate good drugs until you can't take them. I know there are some things that are ok to take when you are preggers, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. I don't want anything bad happening to this little bean in my belly.
The other reason is that my work schedule has been changed. For this last term of classes I am teaching all class periods with no prep time. I only have about 30 minutes for lunch with is often taken up by meetings. Some days I have to pee at 10am and don't get a chance to go until 3:30. Being a teacher has given me a strong bladder. I used to do most of my blog writing in the time just before or just after the school day, but that is mostly filled with prep for class, marking etc. I will try to be better though.
Pregnancy is going pretty well, except for how slowly time is progressing! I am 7 weeks 1 day today. Getting to 12 weeks and the second week of June seem a long way off. For some reason I feel like I am getting big faster. I feel like I am showing, and that any day people will start asking me because it looks so obvious. Actually one of the teachers at my school did ask me the other day. I was off sick on Tuesday and on Wednesday morning she came in and asked if I was off because I had a doctor's appointment because "I had good news to share". I just told her I was off sick with a cold, nothing that exciting to report. Hopefully she believed me, I mean I was legitimately sick.
My doctor told me that sometimes if you get pregnant pretty soon after a miscarriage that you get bigger a little quicker because your body is so used to being pregnant. I don't know if that's true or not, but I really think I am bigger at 7 weeks this time than I was at 7 weeks last time. I keep having this thought that maybe I have twins in there. I don't have any twins in my family or anything, but one of the teachers at my school told me that she had a miscarriage and when she got pregnant again 5 months later it was with twins (who are now teenagers). She didn't have any twins in her family either. I know the chances are so tiny, but for some reason I keep thinking about it. Last pregnancy I kept having this feeling that I would go to my 12 week ultrasound and the baby would be gone, well turns out I had some spotting and found out the baby was gone at an 11.5 week ultrasound. Weird. I guess I will find out how everything is going in June.....again, that is so far away! Seriously!
Ok well I am off to do some work. Have a great weekend everyone!
