Confessions

I always thought pregnant girls were just so cute and couldn't wait until I was ready for that stage in my own life. Now I wonder what happened to that fantasy? I've never been the type of person who struggled with my image/weight. However, it seems my mind is really struggling to embrace my growing belly and ... extra pounds. I'm so excited to be having this little boy and feel so blessed that he his healthy and doing well. Why can't I just embrace the new physical me?

I'm afraid to stop taking my nauseau medicine because I'm afraid I may throw up at work or along the side of the road (both have happened). Though I will admit this morning I felt really sick when I woke up.

I try not to overeat but it seems my stomach growls every hour. I try to eat healthy stuff, but fruit doesn't seem to dent the hunger. So I find myself eating and eating, especially at work. When I'm just at home my stomach doesn't growl as much... I'm trying to counter the extra calories with walks and yoga.

My doctor told me I need a belly support band because I work on my feet most of the day. I bought one.. I think that Nate and I should get these for our dads. Maybe it would help their backs hurt less.

I just thought this was funny...
This morning before I left for work I went and told Nate bye. He said, "the funniest thing happened. I woke up twice and you were here and then I woke up again and you were gone." That was it.. It made me laugh. Then he said, "Now that I say it outloud it's not really funny."
