9 Weeks

I am 9 weeks today and boy oh boy have the past few weeks been a roller coaster. The week after I found out I was expecting I felt great. I really thought I was in the clear for a super smooth pregnancy. I must have spoke too soon. 
The morning sickness hit me at about week 7 and has been on attack ever since. Although, some days I feel great and have so spells of nausea. It is awesome! On the days I do feel sick it is usually worse at night. It will come and go all throughout the day though. I was so sick one day last week that I couldn't keep anything down and thought I may have a stomach virus. But the next morning I woke up and was fine. I was very weak from only being able to keep chicken broth down the day before but other than that I was okay. 
The past few days have been good! I definitely love the days I feel good and don't feel sick. I actually get stuff accomplished! 

My cravings have been all over the chart. Some days I want sweets and some days I crave beer. It is crazy. Two of my favorite things are spicy food and chocolate. However, for some reason those two things don't agree with me this pregnancy. I seriously need to lay off of them and relieve myself the torture they cause....but it is just so hard! :)

We have been telling Cayle that I have a baby in my tummy. I don't think he quite understands. I think once my belly is bigger and it is obvious that something is inside there then he will understand better. 

We go for our first OB appt tomorrow. I cannot wait!! We will do the countless amounts of paperwork, get an ultrasound and hopefully hear the heartbeat! 

Morgan thinks this one is a girl. I really don't have a feeling either way. We do have some girl names we like and no boy names. So, it will probably be a boy. haha

I will update tomorrow after our appointment to let you know how it went! I can't wait to see our little bit!!

Here is a picture of my 6 and 9 week profile. I am definitely getting a bulge!!!
