March 8, 2000

Oh, my goodness, it isn't a worm after all! I am NOT pregnant with a tequila worm! It's an alien baby! I had one more ultrasound due to bad cramping and it has a HUGE head. S/he is doing fine, though. And it jumps and kicks and turns and I can't feel any of it! It was so exciting. Oh, and while I may be 11 weeks, s/he isn't. S/he is 12 weeks! Nifty, eh? And I'm VERY hormonal. I've accused Don of having a twinkie (a woman who doesn't put out but still...) and I'm about to burst into tears over the craziest things. It's SO odd. I'm told it'll pass, though. I guess I'm almost out of the first trimester, though. Soon I'll start buying little baby things and decorating the nursery :). I think it's a little girl so I've kinda been calling her "she" more than "he." And I'm reading Charolette's Web to my tummy. Tummy seems to like it :). That's about all for now, though! TTYL.
