6 weeks today!

I'm 6 weeks pregnant TODAY! Wahoo! Our baby is the size of a BB pellet, as the books say. Last week, the books said it was the size of a sesame seed. So, Dave, being the funny guy he thinks he is, ate a burger last night with a sesame seed bun. He held up his burger and while looking at me said, "mmm, baby". Such a punk. Thanks for eating our kid! ;)

On the nervousing side: I have been having mild cramping off and on since before I found out I was pregnant. Mostly it would start around 3pm with just mild twinges. Today, I had true cramps. Almost like my period was about to start. FREAKED me out. OK, here's where it gets wierd. I peed and they lessened. I ate and they lessened even more. Is the baby just trying to tell me things? Perhaps I should listen.

Our first ultrasound is scheduled for Monday. I'm terrified that history may repeat itself, yet I'm very excited to hopefully be able to see the heartbeat. I've been looking forward to this day for a long time.
