How is this pregnancy different from your first/others? How is this pregnancy the same? Shaping up to be pretty much the same. Very bloated, throwing up at least once a day, but nauseous all day...nothing sounds good, and it just feels so unhealthy to be existing on animal crackers and ginger ale lol. Feeling pretty worthless at work, but taking 10-15 minute walks a few times a day around the neighborhood next to my office seems to help me a bit. I discovered this much later in my last pregnancy, so I'm glad to have that trick up my sleeve early on.
Weekend updates? My son turned 2 and we had his birthday party with just family. We also announced Baby #2 to my parents and in-laws. I wasn't really planning on doing it so early, but they all live 12 hours away and I figured we might as well do it while they are in town. Obviously, they were all thrilled, so it was a lot of fun.
GTKY: If you could eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Right now, nothing. Although, the mention of mashed potatoes above does sound like something I could stomach. Yesterday, I decided that I couldn't live without spicy shrimp and sent DH a picture of this amazing dish I saw on Instagram. He stays home, while I work, and does all the cooking in our family...and was SO sweet and went out of his way to make us almost exactly what I sent him. It was so thoughtful of him. I took one bite of it and my body was like "lol, you thought you wanted shrimp!? Stupid!" I tried to power through it because it really was good, my body just couldn't handle it. And shortly after, I threw it all up while taking my evening shower.
@mylittleirvz and @cafedisco I'm basically only wearing flowing type dresses to work now. Pants are not longer cutting it. I'm just so bloated i'm uncomfortable.
Does this mean you're shaving your legs on a regular basis?! You go girlfriend. Maxi skirts all the way for me!!!
