Pregnant Joy
Of course I am.
How could I possibly not?
I am displaying normal first trimester symptoms.
Very delightful really.
For example, I am totally and utterly exhausted and not by the end of the day ... no no... that would make sense. I am already tired when I wake up in the morning.
By evening, I am sleep walking like a zombie.
It is a good day around here if I managed to ensure Buchela is occupied and entertained without accomplishing much else. I can hardly keep up with my correspondences. If you have emailed me and I have not responded, I am sorry. Being an Easy Bake Oven for a little human can be pretty draining.
I also really like puking my guts out because it is sometimes better than feeling nauseous all day long. Throwing up actually breaks the monotony of nausea.
Ohhh. Let's not forget the delights of excess saliva. I am hardly ever thirsty now since I am having to swallow gallons of my own spit.
Getting up in the middle of the night to pee because of the growing uterus pressure on my bladder and waking the sleeping Buchela up along the way? Priceless.
But what I am really enjoying is the depression. I am lovin' it.
Happiness is overrated anyway.

P.S.: For those of readers who have never been pregnant or come with boy parts, yes these are all NORMAL pregnancy symptoms! I can't imagine what it would be like having an "abnormal" pregnancy. SHEESH!


















great pic of you two by the way...
I havent been here for a while and just read your post about pregnancy. I am so happy for you you must be delighted. Congratulations, and enjoy those 9 months as much as you can. The Buchela must be excited to have a lil'buchela :)
I drove by two Panda Expresses yesterday and thought of you, but perhaps you don't feel like eating that anymore now anyway.
Congrats on the new baby. I hope things get better soon with your pregnancy. take care!
Thank you so much for all your encouraging comments. Even though I know I am not the only one who feels crappy during the first trimester, it is still nice to hear it! I am sure I will survive. I am hanging in there.
Diana, Buchela will not know what hit him when this baby comes. He doesn't yet understand what it all means.
