Pregnancy

Well, I figured I'd better write down a few things about this pregnancy and also fill in a few of you who might be wondering - what the heck, I thought you were done?! Oh believe me, I did! It has been a long emotional journey for me to get here, and I still wake up a lot of days and think "I can not believe I am doing this again!"

October could have pretty much been summed up with one word- misery. I was sick and miserable all month and pretty much laid in bed all day, only getting up or getting ready when absolutely necessary.

After some medication in November I started feeling a bit better, good enough that I started laying on the couch, reading all day instead of just feeling sorry for myself and wanting to sleep in bed all day. Quite an improvement! I read A LOT and enjoyed quite a few new books which I would definitely recommend...The Host which I enjoyed for the second time, and well, since I was reading so much I had to through in another round of Breaking Dawn, you know, because I hadn't read that one as many times as the others, and then of course I had to read Twilight again. Don't worry I stopped there. I got into the new stuff - The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay, then Austenland, and The Declaration. All good reads!

By the week of Christmas (week 17) I was finally feeling well! I am now 21 weeks along, feeling good, and happy that food tastes good again. Except for when I get on the scale, then I maybe wish a little bit that the food wasn't tasting so good again. But then I figure, hey I'm getting fat anyway, pregnancy is miserable enough, if it sounds good, I'm eating it! So, aside from having to try extremely hard not to pee my pants every time I sneeze, and not always succeeding, I'm doing well. Oh, and it's a BOY!
