I hate being prego. No offense little one on the way.
Whoever says being pregnant is the best they've ever felt is CRAZY! I was sick for about 4 1/2 months with the first one. The morning sickness started with that one at 6 weeks while on a cruise - I don't plan to ever go on a cruise again. This one started at 4 weeks. It's been miserable!
I stopped eating dairy for 2 months to reduce the hurling. I couldn't tolerate water or pretty much any liquid. I lived on fruit and snowcones to feel hydrated through a very hot summer. Finally at 17 weeks it felt like the "fever broke". Really, pregnancy to me feels like the longest case of the flu. I can eat dairy and drink water again but I still feel nauseous every day, even at 21 weeks.
Tad is convinced it's a baby brother. A promise of a bunk bed is probably the motivation behind that. :} Fred and I have been tempted to find out what we are having, but so far we're sticking it out. I feel so sick that I like the baby better when I don't know what it is, instead of starting to curse it before it gets here. It's just been Tad, Fred & I for so long that it's really hard for me to picture another child in our family. I'm sure Tad will be a great big brother and old enough to be helpful!
Fred and Tad have really been troopers. I HATE feeling bedridden, I feel lazy not being able to do everything I used to do in one day. It has been a lot of fun to watch Fred and Tad become best buddies. And Tad has grown a lot in the past few months - very independent! Now that I'm starting to feel human again, I'll try to catch up posts on what's been happening in the past few months for us.... besides me being a grumpy prego lady!
