Baby #4

4/19 I noticed a bit on our Nz trip that things were changing in my body. More frequent visits to the toilet, grouchy and then not (mood swings), hot flashes, chills, body temp all over the place, lack of appetite, then crazy hungry, having trouble sleeping at night and getting comfortable, crazy tired and sleepy...all in 1 day! Come to find out that I've missed the monthly dreaded visit😳...but I've also had an increased awareness/desire/readiness to have another baby (even thought I don't prosaically want to have one because of its demands) I think I'm finally ready. Feel fat already, but oh well. Gonna hold on to this info for a little longer (1 more week when I can really tell that it's true) then break it to Jase...if I can hold out that long.

4/20 couldn't hold it from him. He wanted to spend the day together and just wasn't feeling the same. All I wanted to do was eat anything I wanted because who knows when I will keep my last meal down...are st Surfntaco pork burrito. Was soooo yum. Then lunch came... And I threw up! Oh well I guess I was too excited.

4/21 throwing up continues. Time to go see the dr and confirm things

May

Weight: 144.4 pounds

First official confirmation of a pregnancy by the Dr. Had our first ultra sound. Erin Campbell watched Hali'a for me while I took Tairāwhiti with me. Baby is measuring a little bigger than expected. Making the due date two different day, either December 16 or December 21. We will come back in 3 weeks for another ultra sound to confirm the due date. I will definitely need it because I don't/won't go over due. Either baby come out early or I will induce on the due date😊. Lots of throwing up. They took me off Zofran and prescribed me Regland for nausea. We'll see if it helps/works.
