8 Weeks

Well, I don't have much news. I'm still extremely tired. I continue to be in disbelief about how tired I actually get each day. Then, I think that there's no way to get more tired than this and that I have to start getting more energy back and nope, more tired the next day. Thankfully the fatigue doesn't hit until about 4:00 so I can get through a day at work okay and get home in time to take a nap. I don't have much energy at work and find myself being much crankier than normal but I make it through the day. Luckily... I only have one more week of school!! Then I am off for the summer. (But start clinic for graduate school in July) so I really only have a few weeks off.
I also am very bloated and find that after I eat my stomach bloats. It's strange. I can button my pants before I go out then after I eat a meal, I can't button my pants anymore. According to all the reading I'm doing this is normal, but I find it strange. I am having random back aches but I attribute that to my tiredness and my body being tired.

I'm excited to start figuring out what we are going to do in the nursery but I keep telling myself that we have plenty of time to work on that and not to worry about doing that now and to just rest while I can!

My mom bought us a baby names book so Aaron and I have already started discussing names. Oh there are so many decisions!

My next appointment is July 9, which will be my first official Prenatal appointment and I will be about 12 weeks pregnant at that point. My Doctor said it would be a long appointment full of paperwork and lots of bloodwork so while I'm excited to have another appointment because it means I'm farther along and that much closer to meeting my baby, but I don't like bloodwork!!! So I'm dreading that. But Aaron is coming so I'll be fine :)
