6 Weeks

It's confirmed, I am 6 weeks pregnant as of today, Baby Davis is due September 20th! I had my very first ever ultrasound done, which, I might add, is not that thrilling, but we got to see our little Pea! SO EXCITING. The nurse had a hard time finding it at first, so the doctor came in and prodded until the little baby dot appeared on the screen. (Thank you, God, for giving me a low sitting and wierdly positioned uterus...) Soooo there it is, tucked in very comfortably in the middle of my uterus... begging for food every 30 minutes. I didnt realize it was possible to eat 3 pieces of chicken and a whole can of corn and still be hungry. Oh, and an apple. *stomach growl* hungerrrrr. The doc says this is normal. NORMAL? really? and that I should eat EVERY TIME IM HUNGRY. are you seeerioussss? We're going to need a LOT of groceries. Still guzzling water but hardly any nausea today, thank goodness. The morning sickness fairies have skipped me. thank yoooooou.
I started thinking about when my rabbit, Trixie, had babies 2 years ago. Rabbits are so fascinating when they are pregnant, they tear up anything they can find to make a nest and pull out their hair for the babies to sleep in. Then they are born, this time there were 9. I woke up one day to find them tucked all warm in their mama-fur-nest. precious as can be, seriously. They stay that way for about 3 weeks, and you're like awwwww cutest thing I have EVER seen. And then, all of a sudden, THEY ARE ALL WALKING AROUND THE HUTCH. AT THE SAME TIME. im not kidding. and they all want to eat. and they want attention. I remember staring with wide eyes like oh CRAP i have 10 rabbits now GO BACK IN YOUR NEST IM NOT READY GO BACK GO BACK. they were really nice when they were blind and hairless in their nesting box and then they could WALK. anyway, im not really sure where I was going with this... except I hope when this baby comes out im not like WAIT GO BACK IN FOR A COUPLE WEEKS IM NOT READY. And, for peace of mind, I will not be pulling my hair out to make a baby nest. thats all.

So here is the first official of our pea. precious right? It will double in size in 3 weeks. It's already big, I think, that must mean its a boy.
