This weekend we celebrated Valentines Day in Virginia Beach. We left Friday and came back yesterday. It was a nice quiet relaxing weekend. I slept a lot because I realized, without a lot of stimulation, that my nausea medicine makes me REALLY TIRED. We also did a lot of exploring by driving--we went south past Rudee Inlet to Sandbridge which was a cute little town and even found a little wildlife sanctuary. Then we went north past Fort Story and went across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel to the eastern shore where we found another state park/wildlife sanctuary. We stopped at the first tunnel and watched a huge ship go over the tunnel and saw the sketchy snack bar and souvenir shop. We also played a lot of Yahtzee which I had never played before. I had one game where I got three Yahtzees! Pigpen was not happy. :) We had Valentines dinner at the worst restaurant ever (putting Waffles and Things at Pacific and Laskin almost to shame). The service was horrible and the place was sketchy but luckily the food was good. I had a lot of steamed shrimp with Old Bay at Nick's and the Beach Pub. MMMM!
When we got home last night, we took the 15 week picture. Still not showing but the doctor says I probably won't until about 20 weeks. I've gained 1 lb and she'd like me to gain 4 by 20 weeks. My nuchal transluceny testing was good--no problems. My appetite is better and I'm taking the meds less but still once in awhile. I'm trying hard to find redeeming things about being pregnant! I guess its the whole "you get a baby at the end" thing that makes it worth it. :) The doc also confirmed that the bulge above my pants (at my tummy) is just fat, not baby.
Picture!
