Life on Hold

The word is out that I am PREGNANT.

I'm just shy of 10 weeks along. For the past 3 weeks I have cancelled every appointment, meeting, playdate, and obligation in my life to lie on my couch, trying not to vomit. My poor kids eat Cheeto's for the majority of their meals lately (the all-natural ones at least). Devin does the housework and is being such a help to me.

Last night something weird happened. I noticed that I was sitting up, not lying on the couch. Then I analyzed the feeling in my stomach and realized that nausea was absent! Today was another good day. I still had to do typical things like make emergency runs to the pantry when I got that nasty feeling, or take a break and lie down for a minute and let my head stop spinning, but I actually did things today. I took the kids to the park. I stopped by Selena's house and went to the store. I even went to walking group.


I hope the tide is turning!
