So things have been 'fun' in the Pelon house these days. On Friday we got to hear the babies heartbeat, which was amazing! David got to be there with me and both of us were amazed by the tiny little heartbeat. Not going to lie it sounded more like I had an upset stomach than a heartbeat, but I still teared up a little bit. I did get in a little trouble with the doctor because I'd lost 3 pounds since my last appointment, so the doctor gave strict orders to "Get bigger, and feel better." Well apparently little Pelon doesn't like being told what to do because the morning sickness has doubled to the point I consider myself lucky if I can hold down 500 calories and 1/3 cup of water in a day. Needless to say I've dropped even more weight and am very low energy. Then tonight I woke up at 1 am with a nasty stomach ache and a irrepressible need to scrub the shower walls and ceiling. I think that I had a serious bout of nesting to say the least. Yes it was nice to get something done but the nagging obsessive feeling was less than fun and cleaning products do very unpleasant things to an already upset digestive system. Oh well, baby will be/is worth all this. I can do it!
Over and out!
