why do people always have to bring up that whole, "don't get too excited until after the 1st trimester" thing? neither nick, nor i have any history or family history of miscarriage - so why do they have to do that? nick hadn't even thought of that until today when someone said it to him and now he's terrified (i, on the other hand have been since i found out even though i know it's ok).
also, what's sad is when you hope that certain friends will be excited for you when they find out you're expecting... but you find out that they could care less... even though you know that they feel that way b/c of a lack of happiness in their current relationship and they're jealous that you have what they want -- it's still sad and disappointing.
oh well. i'm happy, nick's happy, we both really want this little jelly bean.

ugh...
is it normal for me to be terrified that i'm gonna see my period every time i go to the bathroom? i'm sure it is, but it's still this fear in the back of my mind. i'm so excited to be having a baby (even if i'm not showing or having a whole lot of symptoms yet) that i'm terrified it's gonna just go away...
cried over a vitamin water machine taking my money today. dork... i know...
went to the gym and did yoga, but only half-assed b/c my doc isn't seeing me until i'm 9 weeks so i don't know if it's really ok for me to do it or not... i would bet it's ok and i'm sure walking is fine, but i just don't want to overdo it...

headaches
so i've been getting these monstrous, icky, tension headaches.
normally i'd just pop an excedrin migraine or 4, but i can't now... looks like acetaminophen is OK to take while pregnant... and of COURSE there's none in the house.
oh well, it's cool.
went to the library and got 6 or 7 million books on pregnancy and birth and stuff like that. ya know, even if i end up having it in hospital, i still want natural birth, and when i see dr. stack in july i'll make that clear (unless it's breach or there's a problem and then we'll go from there in the best manner possible).
started thinking of names... no definites yet.
a girl name i really like is elizabeth lucille, call her lucy.
a boy name i really like is eli, or jonah (dunno what other name goes with those).
also: zoe, liv, sun, ryder, mei, hayden, riley
one thing i can definitely say is that i'm glad this baby isn't being born to my 15 year old self, otherwise it'd be named Seattle Rayne (swear to god i thought that name was magical at 15) - and that would just be sad sad sad.

just for me
When the line turned pink - I wrote this to baby:
6/27/08 – took a test today. faded pink line. knew i should wait and do it again tomorrow.
got impatient… took another one, different type. the word "not" wasn't shown.
i cried.. the happy kind of cry.
your daddy doesn't know yet. aunt liz and aunt lucy do. laura at work does (she was the person that determined that it really was a faded pink line for me). trying to decide when to tell him… should i wait and see dr. stack first?
wow.
how am i going to have you? i want natural… daddy's gonna have to get used to that idea if he hasn't thought about it before (which, since he's a dude, i'm sure he hasn't).
