Week 20 and a penis


The ultrasound tech saw that he was a boy right away but since my daughter was chatting about what we are naming it if its a girl she whispered it to us so we could tell Kya, so she wouldn't be so disappointed there, but Ravi said it outloud and at first she made her grumpy face and then said well I guess were naming it Ashton. I thought that was funny because noone has every mentioned that name before! We are excited and its been 7 and 1/2 years since I have had a baby boy so I'm ready for another sports fan to join the house!

Its almost back I can taste it!

So the last few weeks have been utter hell and most of it was spent in my chaise lounge nauseous as I watched repeating syndication television which ultimately made me more nauseous. My poor husband tried his best to seem caring and ask how I was doing but inevitably ended up playing live games online and avoiding me and when confronted he said he was scared of me which shocked me because I was unable to yell, get upset or start a fight, but in my non-lucid state I was difficult to deal with and unable to be pleased! So poor husband did his best to just stay away and avoid bothering me further! Although I can see the sun poking out and it seems as if, I may be emerging from my moody, nauseous, miserable month! What I wouldn't give for a full day of energy and eating whatever the hell I wanted with no fear!
Now I have been pregnant before so this should be old hat well I have labeled my husband's sperm 'demon sperm' that my body is rejecting and is hating to have anything to do with it! This baby is holding me hostage but if he's a mirror image of his father when older I may forgive him for the months leading up to it!
I'm looking forward to the upcoming months as long as their better and I can actually be close again to my loving husband I know he's dying for affection again!

The Beggining Week 6


So its roughly week 6 in this pregnancy and I am really excited to have this child with my husband, my two previous children are from a past marriage and relationship which I could have given them more than what turned out to be failed relationships. I can't predict the future with me and my husband but realistically we don't posses the same character flaws the last relationship did. If not cliche a real fundamental love! So my husband Ravi is excited to have the love for a child from the beginning, he loves my children so much he wonders how he could love more! I also fear this as I have a son and a daughter, so when asked what I would like this time I feel I'm doing an injustice to one or the other to choose so I just don't have a real heartfelt opinion this time!
My best friend just found out she was pregnant the same day I called her to tell her I was as well and our other friend (whom makes up the trio) is five months pregnant also, we were all so excited to be experiencing it together and then yesterday I get a double blow of bad news My friend ( lets call her Hayden) lost the baby and my other friend (lets call her Ginny) found out her husband is moving to Arizona with her two younger sons whom she has been fighting to get custody back from. I feel both my friends lost something today and I feel so guilty for being so genuinely happy, I have no fears, no pain, no loss but I do know that when friends experience true pain there is no difference between theirs and yours.
