In case you haven't heard

Tim and I wanted to keep things on the DL for a while, but because my husband is unable to keep secrets for very long, the word has gotten out. Tim and I are pregnant. We found out on St. Patricks day, March 17th, and as of right now I'm exactly 6 weeks along. So my due date it right about November 20th. We're pretty excited and scared at the same time. I haven't been feeling too sick yet, but because my immune system has taken a hard hit, I've been dealing with a minor cold for the past few weeks. Plus, I'm VERY tired, but that's expected right? I'm trying to eat well and stay somewhat active so my body can stay strong throughout the pregnancy. Am I scared of miscarriage?? slightly, but not too worried about it.

So Sick

So Tim and I caught some sort of bug that I guess has been going around. I've been downing bottles of Theraflu and Nyquil capsules for the past few days. Unfortunately, the medications I have  haven't been working very well and I'm sure I have it a lot worse than Tim does. His overall sick feeling is nothing compared to my runny AND stuffy nose, my sinus infection, sore throat, losing my voice, cough, phlegm, queasiness, fever, loss of appetite, and sleepless nights. I went in to work today looking and sounding awful, so they sent me home after 2 hours. What's weird is that I didn't cough very much or have my usual stomachache, just really tired because I wasn't sleeping well. But, as soon as I got into the car I started coughing, and it has continued to get worse since I've been back home. I have a feeling that I may also be allergic to something, something that I love VERY much. . . .  and I really hope it's not the case that I have developed this new allergy to dogs.....
