Feeling pretty good. Tired and lacking energy all the time. I've gained no weight, but have had to start breaking out the maternity clothes. Trying to start picking up a few winter items too! Buying all supper big maternity clothes as I'm anticipating being as large as I was last pregnancy... but really hoping the regiment that my obgyn has me on will help. I'm taking the regular prenatal vitamins plus a calcium substitute and low dose aspirin daily. Sounds like a lot when you write it out!
We've been starting to prep ds with a few new books... havent found any real great ones yet though. I'll have to do some book reviews later. He's so into babies lately... I think he will be totally ecstatic when we finally tell him.

7 weeks
7 weeks today and had my first appointment and blood work today. Everything looks good and is all in the right place lol Because of the issues with "dating" with my 1st pregnancy she's going to try and get me in for an early ultrasound at 10 weeks and back for another appointment at 11 weeks. If all is well I think we will probably let the cat out of the bag after that.
DS also had a check up today. He's rarely sick, 3 years old and never had a prescription. But it was nice to get him checked out. He is nearly 100% for height and between 75 and 80% for weight. I mentioned the not eating meat thing but our doctor didn't seem concerned. Also mentioned his active nature, and she basically said not to worry about it. She (like me) seemed to attribute alot of it to his personality. She was also impressed at his speech and said he was well advanced and could be another reason he always the most chatty one in the group.

What day is it again?
I was more than disappointed with the election results outside of Atlantic Canada, but not surprised.
DS did prety good at skating. DH came too which was great! I don't think my back would have been able to handle it all on my own.
Yesterday was violin. DS did much better than last week, still likes to run around too much for my liking. His teacher had more hands on activities for him yesterday, which is truly what he needs.
This is our C week.. so we are going to make some cookies in a bit.
I'm feeling ok. Was really tired yesterday though. Mommy brain is kicking in (whether scientifically proven or not). I made an appointment for ds to get his hair cut... thinking tomorrow was Saturday... duh! So had to call back and change it!

5 weeks strong and growing
Had a meet up with the gals yesterday! Was so hard to not spill the beans. I'm most excited to tell ds though. I think I will start doing him up a little big brother gift bag. Some related books and maybe a t-shirt or something. The idea of having him call up the folks and say "I'm gonna be a big brother" has really grown on me.
I'm feeling okay this week. I think we need to finally step up to a queen size bed though. I just can't get comfortable. My back has been bothering me a bit. I've been consciously trying not to pick up ds a lot... not an easy task.
DS has his first pre-canskake class today... should be interesting. Dh is going to go too and we are planning to go vote before heading to the stadium. I'm all jittery about the election. I'm really hoping for a change!

Four for a Birth
Had a pretty good day today! Went to visit my parents and had a late dinner out there. DS had a great time riding on his new John Deer Tractor that his uncle bought him for his birthday. I tried out dads new tractor hehe
We were able to keep the secret of our nugget... even when dad asked me at one point if i was pregnant. Right after that dh called my attention to the big black crows out on the back patio. In total 4. So then I was trying to think of the verse. Luckily I couldn't remember it at that very moment.
One for sorrow
Two for mirth
Three for a wedding
Four for a birth
Five for silver
Six for gold
Seven of a secret not to be told
Eight for heaven
Nine for hell
And ten for the devil's own self.
