Little Peanut

So as you know by now, Nick and I are going to be parents!!!!! Sooo exciting! And we've gotten TONS of support but also a lot of questions, so here are some answers.  :)

- How far along are you?
Today, I am 8 wks, 2 days. I know I am early along to tell, but Nick and I can hardly keep it in! We are so excited, and after having a few scary ultrasounds (my expected dates didn't match up with what they were seeing on the ultrasound), we finally got a confirmative normal!

- When are you due?
April 27 :)

- Is that before you graduate?
Yes... My last semester in my nurse practitioner program is very clinical heavy, so I'll try to get it done early. We're just praying that little peanut wants to stick around until at least my due date! But if he or she comes early, no big deal. I'll still graduate, but will just have to do some clinical time during the summer.

- How do you feel? Feel sick?
Not really sick...yet. Sometimes I just have an aversion to different foods or smells. Mostly, I've been emotional, hungry, peeing a lot, and dog-tired.

- Are you showing yet?
Not yet. I think my pants are just a little tighter due to my eating... I've been craving cheese for some reason. Any thoughts?

- What do you want, boy or girl?
Nick is hoping for a boy, and I don't know what I prefer. Both of us, though, are going to be thrilled no matter what!!!! We find out mid-December!

We are soooo excited!
