So today starts week 6.....I guess. How in the world do you even know if this is the correct week or not? You could be tracking your baby's progress thinking his hands and feet are forming when they really aren't.
I went to see a nutritionist today to check out some things I have been concerned with and of course my iron level was way low. I don't think I have ever had a "normal" reading. One things I learned (and I am surprised no one has told me prior to today) if you eat dairy and high iron foods together the dairy blocks the body's ability to absorb the iron. Well.....all these years I have been eating instant grits to help boost my iron and since I add cottage cheese or cheddar I am wasting my time. Why does healthy stuff have to be so bland?
Tomorrow I travel to the deep south with my little guy. Not looking forward to 10 hours in the car with this awful nausea I have had but hopefully by being the driver that will help a little. Will be revealing to my family and close friends since I'm sure big brother will spill the beans...plus it's gonna be hard to hide this morning/all day sickness from my mama! Wish me luck!
