The Cupcake Conception

HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!

Side by Side with my 11 Week Pic:

It’s filling out more! See up top? It’s changed from bloat to baby & it’s kind of changed shape. I don’t know how to explain it shut up.

Moving on.

Most Noticeable Symptoms
-Frequent urination (finally has caught up to me)
-Thirsty all the time
-Cramps/pulls/sensations in lower abdomen
-Headaches
-Insomnia during the night, sleeping during the day
-Crazy dreams
-Excessive saliva (still… sigh)
-Nose bleeds

I have bronchitis right now, which is a result of having a horrid viral infection for over a week. I get bronchitis sometimes if I’ve been really sick, and I’m kind of letting it work it’s way out. However, next week if it isn’t 98% gone, I’m going to have to call my doctor. If I get H1N1 right now I’ll probably die… so that’ll be exciting to look forward to.

I’m definitely bonding more with the little guy. I say guy because I swear up & down it’s a boy. We find out on the 22nd of this month, but I’d feel comfortable painting the whole house blue at this point. But yes, we are bonding with each other. I talk to him and say, “Are you in there buddy?” and try to make him move around. I’ll get to feel him soon hopefully! I also sing to him… hilarious songs from the 80′s and early 90′s, mainly, because I tell him often that the music of his generation is going to suck. If we find out it’s a girl next Friday, I will spend a couple weeks apologizing to her… and maybe let her date before she’s 18.

Mr. WC has begun measuring my belly with a ribbon, because he thinks it’s hilarious apparently, and then hanging the ribbon up in the middle of our house so I see it every time I walk by it. He cut it like 12 feet long and said very seriously, “Do you think this will last through the whole 9 months?”

Damn it.

Worst part? It’s not going to.

Two strange things going on (besides the dreams) would be this mouth/jaw thing I’ve been having. About once every week or so, I’ll be sitting around doing whatever, and the little thing beneath my tongue will swell up suddenly. Then I’ll feel a tightness on one side of my jaw. I can still open it and everything, but it’s almost like it’s having a spasm, and it hurts a little when I swallow. It passes in like 10 minutes. I’m going to ask my doctor about it because it’s really odd, and it has only happened since I’ve been pregnant. Any clue what it might be?

The other strange thing is that I hate eating. I mean I HATE IT. I hate putting stuff in my mouth, chewing, and swallowing. I hate almost all foods… the smell… making it… looking at it. I am only eating because it would kill my baby otherwise and I’m totally serious. I told Mr. WC that I’m pregorexic. It’s not that I don’t want to gain weight at all… I just cannot stand the thought of most things. I even Googled “Food Aversion” in hopes that someone else would just rather not ever eat, but could only find aversions to specific things.

So yes. I am still here. I guess I got so exhausted, and then I got so complainy, then I realized no one was really reading this because I had already bitched everyone out… so I thought I’d take a little break. But I am back! Because exciting things are on the way! Like I should be able to feel the baby move soon! EEEE. Thought I may have felt it today but I’m not sure enough to say I did.

Kbye.
