I’m eight weeks and five days pregnant. Go team! I was very tired through weeks six and seven but now I’m just feeling a bit bloated. I haven’t really had any proper morning sickness, just a few brief moments where I felt a little icky but having something to eat or drink was enough to fix it. We’re booked in to have our first ultrasound on Friday. I’m so excited!
And as if that isn’t enough excitement, we’re getting married! In forty-six days! Gah! It’s been a very busy week trying to get everything booked and ready for our big day. We have picked the venue and the celebrant but currently have no idea if either one is available. We’ll go there on Saturday to take a look and make bookings if possible. Please please please let it be available! I’ve got the phone number for the jeweller my sister’s husband used and will try to get an appointment to see him on Thursday night. I don’t expect it will be too difficult to make our rings and hopefully will only take a couple of weeks to do. I’ve ordered the most beautiful wedding dress and should have it later this week. Given I’ll be fourteen weeks by then, I’ve ordered a larger size dress to cover the baby bump.
Today I booked our honeymoon — ten days on Hamilton Island and this morning I put baby on the waiting list for a day care placement. I’ve asked for a spot for November 2009 but am hoping we’ll get a spot without too many problems.
And incase you’re wondering, Kitty is doing really well. The vet increased her insulin to 3 units twice per day and this brought her blood sugar level to 6. We now give her slightly less than 3 units just to try to keep her at around 7-8 which keeps her safe from potentially deadly hypos.
