Yay!

Ok so today we found out that water births and midwives and doula's are all covered under my insurance as long as I do it in a hospital!!! So im excited about that. And Jace gets paid this comming Friday and were going to use some of that money to put into the deposit for the apartment and hopfully move in, in the next few weeks.
Makayla is trying her hardest to crawl lol but hasnt quite got the corrdination yet.
I will be 14 weeks preggo tomorrow! And I am already having problems with my pants. My blue jeans feel like they choke me everytime I sit in them. Lol
Luckally I dont have to go out and buy a whole new wordrobe this time! Because the majority of clothes I have now, are maternity! Yay. I have like 3 pair of maternity blue jeans, 3 dressy maternity pants and lots of tops! But of course I will go shopping for more clothes because since I worked at Motherhood they said that I can get a discount lol. Even though im not working there anymore lol.
Makayla is loving her baby food!! OMG, she eats a whole plate of baby cereal every morning for breakfast, then I give her some fruit for lunch, she loves bananas and pears! She usually eats the whole plastic container of fruit. Then i give her veggies for dinner, and she is going to turn into a squash because she loves it so much.
But im happy shes doing to good with her eating, shes 7 months old and weighes 17 lbs. Lol I get my work out everytime I pick her up and expecially when I play "super baby" with her lol omg. I swing her a few times then have to stop becaues shes heavy lol. She has also been off her morning does of antiseziure meds for a few days now and by the 20th will be completely off her meds!!! And shes doing great, shes had no problems at all! Jace is making great money since he's working at AT&T. Like were making more money then my dad lol and he's been working at his job for 25 years lol. Were excited about the new baby on the way, lol it wasnt really planned to be this soon lol but we cant wait. And Jace has been doing the same thing that he did when I was pregnant with Makayla, he sings to my belly and talks to the baby at night when were laying in bed and I love it when he does that.
So lifes going pretty good right now, I love my family and couldnt ask for anything more.

Morning sickness...ha!

So far this is turning out to be a little rougher pregnancy than what I had with Makayla. Still not out of the norm though.
When I was pregnant with Makayla I only got sick twice, once from morning sickness when I was stupid and drank chocolate milk for breakfast (chocolate milk didnt sit well on my stomach in my first trimester). And the other time was when we went out to church and I just got really neausas and got sick. No big deal right?
Lol, well so far with this baby, I have gotten sick almost every morning for the past two months! Usually five out of seven days a week, im sick. And I've lost a little weight from it, and that sucks.

However, I am thankfully in my 2nd trimester now!!! I still get neausas if I go to long without eating but nothing serious that I cant deal with. So im thankful for that but, im still really tired, like for instance, im supposed to be cleaning right now. I said that I would clean the bathroom (just needs to be wiped down again and mopped) and the kitchen (a few dishes need to be done and floor mopped) and the living room (needs to be straightened). But I havnt done anything yet because it seems like everytime I get up off the sofa to do something I get lightheaded and really tired.

I went to the doctor and he said that I might have a medical reason for still being so tired. He took a lot of blood and said that everything came back normal except my thyroid. He said that my thyroid hormone levels are slighty lower then normal which can cause extreme fatigue during pregnancy. But he said that its nothing to worry about because its not to low. He said that there is a condition called "hypothyroidism" where the thyroid doesnt produce enough hormone during pregnancy and that can cause the baby's IQ to drop slightly, or for the baby to develop motor skills a little slower. And the only way to fix it would be to give the mother hormone treatment. However, my doctor said that my levels are no where near that low, so theres nothing to worry about. He will check my blood again when I go back on the 21st just to see if its gone up any.

So thats a little aggrivating, lol im supposed to be feeling better and back to normal again at this point, but im still really tired. It just makes it kind of hard to be a good mother and wife because if im not feeding or playing with Makayla im supposed to be cleaning and cooking...but I just dont have that much energy. And Jace still gets pissed at me because he still thinks this is a "mind of matter" situation. And I'v tried to explain to him that, during pregnancy it just doesnt work that way, expecially if im feeling tired for another reason other then just normal pregnancy symptoms. He tells me to get up and do some cleaning but dont push myself. But what he doesnt understand is that just getting off the sofa and walking to the kitchen and washing one dish is exhausting to me.

But hopfully I will feel better soon so I dont have to listen to him yell anymore...at least not about that lol.
