Week 10

This Saturday marked ten weeks! I thought today I (Jen) would do a frequently asked questions:

1. How are you feeling? It changes on a day by day, moment by moment basis. Last week I had a few really good days, but then the nausea returned. The last 48 hours have been more difficult. I often feel ill before I eat which makes it difficult, but I just keep eating and drinking water.

2. Have you had any cravings? Yes - Macaroni and Cheese and Cinnamon Rolls.. neither of which have much nutritional value (maybe some calcium.. but a lot of fat). I also love a good bowl of milk and cereal.. its my go to food item.

3. Have you been really sick or just not feeling great? I've only been really "sick" once.

4. Do you want a boy or a girl? We want healthy! - But honestly, I see advantages and good things about both. I think Steve would love to have a boy to play sports with and do all those fun guy things. I also think a girl is fun to do girlie things with. We both want both eventually, so we are happy with whichever God gives us first.

5. Do you want to know the gender before giving birth? Steve's answer: YES!

6. When do you find out if its a boy or girl? We should find out around 20 weeks, which is when they do the next ultrasound.

The main symptom I've had is exhaustion. I have less energy, and when I do too much I get nausea.. its a challenging balance.

If you have a question post it in comments and Steve or I will answer.
