10 weeks and 2 days

I had a doctor's appointment today, but no ultra sound :( It was all the routine questions like does crazy run in your family? Really, everyone is crazy!! No really asking all the questions and asking if we wanted genetic counseling, which we declined. I don't understand how that works?? So they say, "you test positive for Downs?" What do you do then, but stress for the rest of the time.
I did ask the doctor why my ankles swelled a few weeks ago, she said well it is 100 degrees outside. I told her I have wonderful friends that just had babies and a wonderful daughter who packed me ice bags for my ankles. It has not happened since, I can only imagine how it will be when we go on our cruise or fly to Denver.
Nausea has hit somewhat, but just the sick feeling not throwing up. My migraines are occuring more frequently due to not being able to take anything, but tylenol!!
Still tired all the time, I guess b/c I sleep till about 2 and then toss and turn until 6.
When is it to early to wear maternity clothes?? Everything that I can wear at a modified level makes me feel uncomfortable and really fat!!
I have tons of summer clothes that my friends have loaned me, but not sure when I can wear them.
The new item I am researching are breast pumps: how safe is it for the baby if you use someone else's pump? You read about the bacteria, but then they sell new parts for it. I figure since I have to go back to work and will be pumping, I need one that is fast and reliable!! If anyone has any thoughts or answers on my off the wall question, I would appreciate them :)

Let me know of any good books, I cannot live without too!!

Back to Ga. Southern tomorrow for class, hope I don't have to use the restroom every 20 minutes :)

Next Apt. September 12th.

First Ultrasound!!

August 2nd = I turned 33 today, and got to see and hear baby Dineen's heart beat!!

Today we are 6.5 weeks along, approximate due date is March 22, 2012! It was the neatest thing to see the baby and hear it's heartbeat. My mom is a little sad, that it is not twins!!

Everything is still going well, clothes are getting a little tight, but still able to wear them with modifications. My mom bought me some new maternity clothes for my birthday, my brother got me a gift card to buy some clothes, and Mike and Mattie gave me some new sneakers. I believe I am all set for summer, but still need work clothes. So if anyone knows of any other stores and websites that are good for work pants let me know. I have had some headaches, but I am sure they are work related!! I have to understand that I cannot change everything, and that there are some things I must accept :) I need a good sleep pillow, I have no problem getting to sleep just hard staying asleep comfortably!!

Our next appointment is August 16th, but I will make sure to keep you updated each week!!
