6 weeks today

Things are going well. I'm still not feeling sick. My newest hope is that I'm one of those lucky ladies that feels really good during pregnancy. I have a little bit of metal taste in my mouth and random shooting pains to all my good parts so at least I'm having SOME symptoms. One more week until we get to peek.

Jon's parents are coming tomorrow afternoon. We still haven't decided how we're going to share our good news. I don't think Jon wants to do anything fancy, but that just goes against the grain for me. Maybe we'll show them the embryo pictures and my small collection of positive home pregnancy tests. Just what everyone wants to pass around - sticks with pee on them! Maybe I should put them in a ziploc at least.

Jon is going to take the first baby bump picture tonight. I'll add it to this post when we have it ready. For the last couple of weeks I've been able to suck in my gut to make a flat tummy, but I noticed that I couldn't do that anymore yesterday. I finally got rid of the bloat from IVF and now it's coming back. Hopefully that means the baby is growing. Otherwise I need to stop chowing down! We plan to do weekly photos throughout the pregnancy.

I guess we should clean the house a little tonight. We're always good about keeping the house picked up, but dusting, vacuuming, and cleaning bathrooms aren't our high points. Jon always does the vacuuming and then I do the rest unless I'm being lazy...then Jon does most of it. He's the best husband in the world and he's all mine!
