Good-bye Morning Coffee

I have had to say goodbye to my morning cups of coffee. And say hello to morning sickness. Well really it is all day nausea. My new best friend is my toilet. Yes I am pregnant, 7 weeks today. My first doctors appointment is next week. I will be doing some initial testing which hopefully can tell me if I am having twins or only one baby.
I don't really know why I think that I am having twins. Maybe it is because I am soooo sick, maybe because I am a twin and Rich has twins on his side of the family so my chances go up. Maybe it is just because I have teased so many of my friends and family during their pregnancies that they were going to have twins, that I feel it is going to be me that has them. Karma.
This pregnancy is crazy. I am so sick. I remember being sick with Kaelyn, but it was nothing like this. I worked the whole time with Kaelyn, maybe taking a couple of days off before I realized that I was in fact pregnant, but I was able to work. I seriously can not function the whole day with this baby. I find myself constantly laying down in order to not feel so nauseous. Sometimes it works other times, not so much. Thankfully my mom stayed in town this week and watched the kids for a few days so I could relax and feel sick without having to watch and take care of them. What a blessing.
So if I am out of contact for a while, this is why. I really can't do much without feeling like I need to run to the toilet.
I will try to keep you all up to date with what is going on and what my doctors says about this baby or these babies. Until then I guess you can all place your bets and see who guesses right!!
