Cravings

When I used to think about having a baby, long before we actually tried to have one, i always wondered if i'd get morning sickness or cravings. My mom and sisters did not. Obviously, I have learned the definition of pregnancy sickness and i'm not a fan, but we had some guesses as to what we thought i'd crave. This baby is all about fruit, veggies, and seafood. There are worse things and it's so not a big deal, except that this baby is also absolutely NOT about anything fried, which would be fine if i had known that BEFORE i ordered cheesesteak eggrolls for lunch yesterday...

I haven't actually thrown up, but my stomach has some very strong opinions about what i'm allowed to eat. I have also established that I'm on roughly a 5-hour cycle of consciousness, and i crash at the end of that time. Naps are not short- they're full cycles of 3-4 hours before i get my next 5 hours of wakefulness.

My first appt is at 9 weeks and even though i don't think it will be terribly exciting, i'm making bob come because i know they are going to take blood and stuff and would rather not drive myself after. Our second appt is 1 week later for the 10 week heartbeat!!! and about 2-4 weeks after that this whole nausea fatigue thing should go away!!! yay!!!
