OUch!

My back has been hurting a lot lately. I've been taking hot showers everyday to try to relax my muscle. Having a waitressing job doesn't help, but it sure is a good exercise;)

These couple of days, I've been worrying and thinking about how I am going to deliver this baby. I have this fear of delivering! I know, I know... Many women have done it, but I'm terrified. AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

I expressed my worry to Brad and his response was a laugh. He thinks it's funny. Sometimes I wish that men can go through what women go through, as far as being prego and try to deliver a baby when it is time. Sometimes, I wonder how Brad's mom had 10 babies.

So far, I haven't gained any weight but I'm sure I will make up towards my last trimester. I was just looking through the internet and did this Chinese calendar test to determine the sex of the baby. According to the test, I"m having a boy! I know it's just a test, but I have a good feeling that it is going to be a boy. Brad and I are both actually hoping for a boy first. We will just have to wait and see...

Doctors Visit

I went in for my last of my first trimester doctor's visit yesterday. I was so worried, but I heard the baby's heart beat again. I felt so relieved, tell ya! It was beating so fast, I couldn't believe it! I still can't believe that I'm pregnant either... But I am very happy that I am and I can't wait to meet this new baby.

So the past 1 1/2 months, I've been having headaches, stomach aches, and , wanting to throw up( but can't), but I think it is slowly disappearing. For the last month or so, I haven't been able to brush my teeth the way I been wanting to. every time I have too much toothpaste in my mouth or try cleaning my tongue with a toothbrush, I start gagging horribly, leaving me with a stomach ache. Anyone experience this?!?!

Couple of days ago( Tuesday), I went to work and as soon as I had arrived, there were tables waiting for me to serve them. So I hurry up and went to the tables to serve them. When I arrived at work, my plan was to take a drink of water because I was thirsty, but that didn't happen because I was soooooooooo busy. In the middle of taking orders of 10, I started getting blurry and I started getting light headache. It was so bad, I had to stop the lady who was giving me her order and I ran to the side station. I ended up on the floor, causing me to almost faint. It wasn't the greatest feeling. After that I was so concerned about my baby thinking that he/she didn't have enough oxygen to breathe. My worry of course went away after the doc. visit yesterday. I've learned my lesson to keep myself always hydrated at work.

What else... This year, we are not celebrating Thanksgiving or X=mas with our families this year. Brad is scheduled to work on Thanksgiving and X=mas day; bummer. Since he is so new in what he is doing, he has no seniority whatsoever. Hopefully, he will be able to take some holidays in the future.
