I know I haven’t posted in a while, but there’s a good reason for that. I didn’t want to blab the big news prematurely: we’re expecting a baby in February!
I’ve got 14 weeks under my belt (literally) so far, and I have to say it’s been pretty crappy up to now. I started feeling nauseous around week 5 and no sign of it going away any time soon. Strangely, I feel sick in the evenings most often, so at least it’s not really interferring with work (except for today, today I feel lousy).
The fatigue has mostly faded though, which is great. I was eyeing my watch at 8:30 on some days, ready to get to sleep already.
I’ve also outgrown a bunch of clothes already, which is surprising because I don’t think I look obviously pregnant yet. But I can’t zip up any of my jeans (rubber bands to the rescue!) and I’ve outgrown all my bras. Had to go out and get a new bikini for our mini vacation to the beach in a few weeks. Just in time, too, since it’s the end of the season and there aren’t many swimsuits left to choose from.
So yeah. My life for the past few months: wake up, eat a huge bowl of cornflakes because I can’t stand the sight of bread for some reason, try to find a shirt that still fits, get to work, snack all day, get home, collapse on couch, go throw up, feel better, eat supper, watch some TV, ignore chores, go to bed early. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it?
