5 weeks...

Well, now all of my family knows, and most of my closest friends. I have 2 more friends I need to tell, and hopefully that comes this week. It is all so overwhelming. Dan still needs to tell his grandparents... and hopefully will soon. I told mine today, and it is so awkward for me to spill it! I never thought it would be, I thought I would just shout it out, but it isn't like that.... maybe it is weird I feel like that.

So I am in my 5th week, and today the boobs hurt really really bad. I hope this doesn't last all of pregnancy. Hunger also comes on so fast! One second I am not hungry at all.... and then BAM, I have to eat something. So far, just a bit of nausea, nothing major... but I hear that usually hits hard at 6 weeks.

Baby is the size of an appleseed, and his organs and nervous system are beginning to develop this week. By next week, the heart will be beating! It is so amazing. I cannot wait until I hear the heartbeat and know everything is going to be OK. I am still nervous about that, since it is still so early. I know a lot of people wait a long time to tell, but I am not one of those people. Anyone who knows me well, knows I cannot keep secrets. I can't even handle holding onto a Christmas gift for anyone until Christmas, and always want to give it early! So, I just pray everynight for God to give us a health little one.
