6 weeks today! +/- a day

I left you guys last time with my fears of a low hCG count and all sorts of semi-irrational thoughts, but I’m happy to report that I was a spaz for nothing. I went from an 840 count to just under 3400 in 72 hours. Yah!! Not to mention the fact that shortly afterwards, I finally started getting some indications that there may be some brewing going on with the little Terminator. While I have managed to only blow chunks once (yesterday), I have been nauseous for the past few days. No complaints though, I’m excited to feel something going on. :-) I mainly get nauseous when I’m driving, (MY DRIVING, not Steve's) which is really no surprise since I’m a terrible driver. 

Steve and I have already been looking into baby gear and I have to show some sort of restraint and not buy everything I see. We’re still up in the air about whether or not we’ll find out the babies sex or if we’ll even get an ultra sound. Since I’m with a midwife, I’d have to figure out how to get to a facility to get said ultra sound. I don’t know. Seems like a lot of unnecessary work to just satisfy a personal urge with no real medical reason to do it (unless something happened and it became medically necessary). However comma...the thought of getting green and yellow crap makes me want to vomit. I suppose I can just get the bare minimum and get whatever else later. Steve and I were joking that we would have two Amazon carts, one for a boy and one for a girl. As I have the baby, he’ll just run downstairs to the computer and buy the appropriate cart. Sounds feasible. Haha!

We did pick a crib out that we like - Arms Reach - it looks like an awesome co-sleeper, so I can keep the little guy next to me at night. 

Question for all my mama friends: did you buy one or two car seats? 

I really don’t have much to talk about at this point. I just don’t want to fall off the wagon and not write weekly or I’ll forget about this and never do it. Time to get ready for yoga!
