I have a love/hate relationship with Sundays. It's always the more relaxing of the two weekend days, but it's also sort of bittersweet knowing that I have to go back to work tomorrow. I guess one good thing is that my high school intern doesn't come in on Mondays, but I have a really big lab day planned tomorrow. Boo.
This weekend was uneventful but good - pretty par for the course around here, but that's how we like it :) A big day of grocery shopping on Saturday, then today we went to the mall and Jeff bought me a new purse for my birthday. Which isn't for two weeks, but since we both kind of despise going to the mall and we had to go anyway to get my engagement ring inspected, it seemed like a good time. I keep finding myself stopping at stores that sell kid's clothes and maternity clothes...I know it's too early to buy anything but I really want to! This Wednesday is the 7th anniversary of when we started dating - it seems like so long ago. We're going to Ruth's Chris to celebrate (note: this is NOT on Valentine's Day!). It's crazy to think that by 8 years, we'll have a baby.
As far as the pregnancy goes, it's still smooth sailing. Today and yesterday I wasn't nauseous at all, which is awesome. I'm still bloated (I swear, I look like I should already be wearing maternity clothes) but feel pretty good. My neurologist prescribed me some medicine in case I start to get really bad headaches, and it's also supposed to help with morning sickness. I am going to be really sorry to have to find a new neurologist; even though he makes me wait for hours, he's really great. I'm not so sorry about getting a new OB though...I'm already sort of thinking that I want to find someone new. There were just a few things that I wasn't 100% on board with when we talked - for instance, she told me I'm going to have to get RhoGAM injections even though Jeff and I are both Rh-negative. I thought maybe that's just something everyone does, since I hadn't really read much about RhoGAM and thought maybe I just misunderstood, but after reading more, it seems that I really shouldn't have to get the injection. I guess I'll bring it up with my doctor at my 8-week appointment and see what she says; if she's not flexible on it, I'm definitely switching. It just barely seems worth it since we will have someone else for the delivery anyway.
