8 Weeks

I started writing this entry last week when my niece Kimberly was visiting. I put it down and am just now picking it back up. Last week, I hadn't gotten sick yet. This week, I'm feeling a little queasy. Last time, I think I started feeling sick as soon as I went to the doctor, so I think I'm doing alright.

I've been having strange cravings lately. I don't remember any cravings from last time, just food aversions. I couldn't eat pizza. I've been craving salty, savory foods. Cucumbers with balsamic vinegar were at the top of the list for the past two weeks. Lately, I've been craving bagels & cream cheese, and for some weird reason, I really want an Italian BMT from Subway (toasted). I've never had an Italian BMT from Subway, nor do I really know what is on one, but whenever I see a Subway, I think "I could really go for an Italian BMT right now." WTF?

I've done a few things so far with this pregnancy that I probably shouldn't have. For one, I rode a roller coaster with my niece. For another, I think I got food poisoning, and I didn't go to the doctor. Hopefully neither will prove detrimental.

Our Amnio is scheduled for Thursday, October 28th. We'll get an ultrasound with that one, and should find out the gender. I've been thinking it's a boy, but lately, intuition has been telling me it's a girl.

I've had one pregnancy dream so far. In it, I had twins, due one month apart. Dreams sure are crazy.
