Thanks everyone for the wonderful advice! I'm trying to just relax and let things happen as they come, but sometimes the cramps and whatnot make me think "nine months!?" - lol. I have increased my water intake, so ended up getting up three times last night. I thought the bathroom habit only started when the baby was bigger and pressing on your organs.
I'll have to get some hazel nuts. I'm getting pretty frequent heartburn. Something I ate at the family party really did me in last night. My family was thrilled when we told them-they've been waiting a few years for us to start having babies.
Crackers, too. I just have a feeling the morning sickness is going to be pretty bad considering how often I feel ill now.
RachelandSadie: I totally don't mind sharing my experience. In a way it's kind of cool that I found out so early. I still can't believe I got teary-eyed over an article in Glamour.
Oh, I forgot to mention, I think Addie knew before we did that there was a human kid on the way. She started looking at me with a betrayed expression (I would have been about a week pregnant) and started going to DH more. I was really hurt at first, but now I understand. Plus, she seems to have gotten over it and is now coming to me again.
