In this particular gem of a photo, I am a mere 9 weeks. That means, according to my calculations, by January I shall be roughly the size of a whale. Heaven help us.
I had such good intentions with this pregnancy. I wanted to get out and be very active this summer. Then came the nausea.
I have never known nausea like this before. At least once every five minutes I have to mentally tell myself not to throw up, not to give in to the crazy urges to hurl. And this is me on medication that is supposed to suppress said urges. In fact, not even 10 minutes ago I was brushing my teeth, preparing for bed when I thought to myself, 'I can't remember what it's like to not feel the need to constantly empty the contents of my stomach.' It's disgusting. And I am praying it ends tomorrow. I know it won't, but somehow just praying for it helps.
This is my life right now. Every food I see grosses me out, I have begged and pleaded with Ed to no longer wear deodorant or cologne and I am considering washing my hair with my soap as that seems to be the only scented thing in the shower that doesn't bother me. My shampoo must absolutely go, as well as the dish soap we currently use. Long rides in the car are SO out of the question and even turning a corner in my house too sharply is sometimes too much. The only relief I get is when I sleep. Oh how I wish I could sleep until this is over. I know this is a lot of complaining. But the reality is that even getting out of bed in the morning has become such a task that I think I shall take a short blog break for a while.
I hope this will pass sooner than later. Until then, I shall be catching up on a lot of rest and recruiting the much needed assistance of my wonderful husband.
Loves - Muah!

At least you look great ;)
You look great. So no more long rides, does that mean I won't see you again until the babies born? Well it was fun while it lasted!!! We will just have to come to your place, your not getting away from us that easy! Hope you get better!
kevyn, you are so hilarious!!! i know exactly how you feel. i was soo sick with ben. everything stunk. i hid brad's colonge because i thought it smelt so disgusting. i couldn't stand the smell of anything too!!!! it will pass...around 9-12 weeks were the worst for me. anyways, congrats!!
I'm sorry you're still not feeling so good, but you are looking beautiful!! This will be over (though I know it's hard at this point to believe you won't be pregnant forever) and you'll have a new little Caballero to love and adore.
I passed along a blog award to you today - because I think you rock. I love your honesty and your sense of humor. I know when I tune in I'm going to get a dose of reality from your world and I usually end up in stitches.
Rub your belly for me :)
Sorry you're not feeling good, but huge congrats on expecting a new wee one!
maybe your having twins! :)
