currently i am 11weeks and 1day. i am still battling morning sickness but for me all day long. i take anti-nausea medicine which works after an hour after taking it but it makes me pretty sleepy so it's not the best idea to take it when i am working nights. i can prevent the nausea if i eat every 2 hours but i am not always hungry every two hours so instead of nausea i feel bloated and full. needless to say, i am huge. on numerous occasions people have thought that i am anywheres up to 6 months pregnant. but when i weighed myself at home i have only gained 4 pounds and on my SIL's scale, i lost 2 pounds....go figure!! i have never trusted scales anyways!! i am having an argument with myself about going to see a midwife or stick with gouverneur because jen works there. if it weren't for jen, the decision would be pretty simple. i have always wanted a midwife and to labor in a tub. our hospital does not have labor tubs. but how many nieces/nephews can say their auntie delivered them. it's a cool thought, at least for me it is. i know i have a while to decide but i can't take too long before i contact the midwife's office to see if they are even accepting new patients.
i'm pretty excited to be seeing my sister, nephew and niece in 22 days. it's always so much fun getting together with family and so much more special since i see family only once a year (if i am lucky)!! :( no plans made yet but we have some ideas but either way i know it will be fun.

OK, I AGREE IT'S PRETTY COOL TO SAY THAT AUNTIE DELIVERED YOU, BUT HOW MANY WOMEN IN HICKVILLE (OOPS, RICHVILLE N.Y.) GET TO SAY THEY DELIVERED THEIR BABY IN A TUB!!! WITH A MIDWIFE!!! NOT MANY, I GUARANTEE IT!!!!! AND YOU WOULD SO LOVE THE EXPERIENCE, SO I SAY...LIVE LIFE ON THE EDGE...BE A PIONEER, THE FIRST TO DARE TO DO SOMETHING A BIT ON THE WILD SIDE!!!!!
meh. your other kids will get to say that their aunt delivered them. this one can be special in a different way. besides you could always invite jen to be there for the birth.
ps-my verification word is unthrill...it almost makes sense!
