14 weeks and sick

14 weeks 4 days

well, i got sick. last week i could feel it along. i had small sores in my mouth and body aches on and off...i knew it meant that right before moving, i'd get sick. it's just a cold, i'm pretty sure, but i'm watching for a potential fever so i can run in and get tamiflu while i still have a doctor. (oh, yes, i am moving and with that leaving my dr. and do not have a backup...)

this weekend was fantastic. i finally got my highlights done after waiting until i was out of the first trimester, then i used gift cards to get a manicure, pedicure, and maternity massage at various salons. the massage was heaven! even though i'm not lugging around a big belly (yet?), it was nice to be pampered and to really relax before the big trek across the country. i hope to get another one this pregnancy when i'm further along - i know i'll really want it then!

not much else has changed. i'm basically over morning sickness and only rarely do i get a severe and instant urge to vomit. gagging and watery eyes ensue, but nothing more. everything else remains the same. i have a feeling these weeks will go by with updates like this...not until weeks 18 or 19 do i expect any big things. that's ok. if i'm sick and moving during these weeks, i'd like everything else to be easy.

I got a massage at 38 weeks and it was heaven (and long over due). If I'd known how awesome it felt I would have gotten one around 25-28 weeks when the aches and pains really start to kick in :D Travel safe!!!
