Week 14

I feel like I have a huge tummy now, but of course I find myself thinking sometimes, "Is it growing the way it's supposed to?  Do I look like other 14 weeks pregnant women?"  This is bad news because I am already worrying about the dumbest things!  I just read through another pregnancy book that a friend let me borrow and enjoyed it because it is written not from a doctor's point of view, but a regular girl and it goes through several different scenarios that she and her friends have experienced through their pregnancies. 
I am still not sure when to announce this to my class and parents at school.  Parents would be able to tell by now when I wear certain outfits, but the kids are more oblivious for now.  However, we have curriculum night in about 2 weeks and I feel like I should tell them by then or the parents will just be eyeing me strangely wondering, "Is she just getting fatter, or is she pregnant?"  Ah, who knows.  I guess I'll just tell them out of the blue one of these days.
I also have my next appt. in 2 weeks and I'm not sure what all we'll do, but then I can schedule my 20 week ultrasound and I definitely look forward to that one!  However, to go along with my worrying, it seems like a lot of people first hear about potential problems during their 20 week ultrasound, so I guess I'm eager to see it, but I also want the relief of hearing that everything looks healthy and good (and that the stupid hemorrhage is gone).  And of course I can't wait to find out the sex!  Right now I still think boy mainly because I enjoy looking at/shopping for the girl stuff much more, so I probably won't get to buy any of it!
I've had the worst cold and or allergies for the past couple of weeks and don't wanna take much medication.  I did break down and have 1 Benadryl a couple of nights ago after searching the "safe lists" online.  It didn't help much, so I didn't take any more.  Hopefully I'm over the worst of it for now and will start feeling and looking normal again.  I look like I should be in a hospital bed due to my paleness and dark circles under my eyes when I have a cold...  Anyway, I'll post again next week at some point!
