Moms need to Know

Mike and I had a LONG conversation last night about telling our parents.  First we decided that we for sure aren't telling anyone until we have our first ultrasound at FCI.  He wants to make sure we tell his family in person.  I totally understand that.  Telling people over the phone or FaceTime just won't have the same effect.  We want to celebrate with everyone.

What I didn't think about was the timing between telling our parents.  I will be ready to tell them both right after our ultrasound.  Since we're going to go to Philly to tell them Mike wants to wait to tell my parents until close to when we leave for Philly.  I didn't realize it at first but it just isn't fair for some of our parents to know way before the others.  We looked at the calendar.  Mike is going out of town Valentine's Day weekend so we will need to go to Philly after that.  The weekend of the 20th is Amanda's Shower.  The weekend after that we have Lucio's pop up restaurant dinner.  So it looks like we will be going the first weekend of March.  AHHHHH!!!  Can we wait that long??  I seriously never thought I'd hide pregnancy from my parents for so long but it looks like we are.  I hope they truly understand our reasons why.  I hope all our parents and friends forgive us for lying to them for so long.

I went to dinner with Katie and Becky on Tuesday night.  They asked what was going on with me and I totally lied and said we needed to pick a date for transfer but now it's seeming too real and we need to wait a little.  I THINK they bought it but I don't know.

We had Sarah's birthday brunch today.  I was starving when I got there and ate a ton.  I wasn't going to stay out with Sarah after brunch and she understood.  After brunch I got incredibly nauseous and tired.  I came home and napped on the couch for almost 3 hours.  I did some reading about morning sickness.  The article I read said it typically starts around week 6, but if you have multiples it could start earlier.  Is this why I got nauseous today?  Are there 2 little sesame seeds in there?
