17 Weeks

The nausea seems almost completely gone this week - and it is WONDERFUL. I still feel sick sometimes, but its usually from eating sugar or being hungry - two things I can avoid. 

Sugar is starting to sound better - but I just don't react well after eating it. #boy

The tiredness is creeping in. My iron is on the lowest end of normal and I can feel it. She said if you are anemic in one pregnancy, it's worse and earlier in the subsequent - so she's waiting for it. But she's going to wait to test again in 4 weeks to start iron treatment, and I'm worried it'll be a few weeks too late like last time. 

Speaking of tired, my tornado of a child only wants to play outside. I grabbed all her toys, my water, and a lawnchair so I could sit in the front yard while she played. She was happy as a clam and I realized I forgot to fold my laundry (after running it back a third time) - I grabbed my laundry basket and sat back in my chair to fold while Olivia continued to play.

Dan pulls into the driveway, sees me, in a lawn chair in our front yard, folding laundry, using another lawn chair to 'hang' the hanging pieces. He goes "what kind of trailer park have you turned this place into?" I guess that escalated quickly.
