Still suffering...

Well here goes, the complaint post. I'm now past 12 weeks, an still nauseated all day long. My mouth is still producing WAY too much saliva as well. I'm tired, sick and starting to get grumpy about it. This is just not what I'm used to, by 12 weeks I'm usually feeling great. My doctor has upped my diclectin, and put me on iron. If it hasn't let up by now, it scares me...how long will it last? Just when you think you know what is going on...NOT!

On a happy note, I did get to hear the baby's heartbeat. Surprising and wonderful. It made it seem even more real.

I must find a way to get shopping, I have no pants (okay I have 1 pair) that fit. My belly is getting bigger...almost time for some belly pics.

Thanks for listening to my sniveling...

Until next time...

Some new pictures...




I'm not too sure what Adaira was drinking/eating...but she grew a fine moustache!!





Today we were at my moms for a little visit, my sister in law took some pics, it's nice to have some new to add. Please disregard my frumpyness... no pants that fit= baggy sweats.

My house...it's clean!!!

Last night, I went to bed at 9:00, that hasn't happened around here, well, probably since the last time I was pregnant. This morning, I left my dirty house, and went to work. Upon arrival home, it was clean...well mostly. What a wonderful surprise.

I have been feeling so ill these past few weeks, it has felt like an eternity. I haven't got the energy for anything. I feel nauseated all day long, it's been brutal. I'm nearing 12 weeks (on Tuesday) and by now it's usually gotten much better. I'm looking at a nearly empty bottle of diclectin, hoping I don't have to spend another 100 bucks on pills. When will this let up?

Henry cleaned most of the house, what a wonderful man. Then as soon as I came home, he was gone. Funny how they think that once you get home...they somehow are freeeeeee. And that working was somehow my free time...sigh. Oh well, at least my house is tidy.

I have only put on a few lbs since becoming pregnant, maybe 3-4. But I know this is NO indication of the future. My pants are starting to feel different on me now, like the normal flab, is become more ball shaped... my pants want to slip down. I guess it's time to do some shopping for some new clothes (awe shucks hey?)

I'll post some belly pics, once it feels more like a pregnant belly, and not just fat Erin.

On another note, Adaira is registered for school in the fall. This has felt like a long time coming, I know she will be super excited to go to school with her brother, ride the bus and be a big girl finally. But this new world it will open up... oh dear...ready or not, here she comes!

Starting my bloggin...

Here it is, the place where I'll try my best to keep my world updated...

I'm now 11 weeks pregnant with my fourth baby. The nausea seems to be lifting a little more everyday. I'm not nearly as exhausted as I have been. December was a blur of a month to get through...thank goodness it's OVER!!!

I have started to think about maternity clothes, baby stuff...and names. Names...what in the world to do about names. The girl name in all probability, will remain the same as it was for Thor, which is September (shortened to Ember if we want to) For a boys name...wow, I think we've run out...I have no idea... good thing I have another 7 months to figure it out.

In the mean time, Thor is keeping me on my toes... he is into everything, he is the most high energy, busy little boy I have had. It seems I am constantly going from one room to another, either cleaning up after him, chasing him to get something out of his hand, fishing things out of his mouth... or scolding him for some injustice done to some part of our house...HELP!!!
