Well. No more.
Because while my journey to better health certainly continues, "weight loss" is no longer the goal. At least now right now - seeing as I'm pregnant!
Yup!
Most anyone that I imagine could be reading this probably already knows about my new status as "expectant mother". Here are the details as we know them:
I'm due August 17th, which puts me at 9 weeks and 3 days at this moment. Supposedly the baby is about the size of an olive right now.
I haven't had any sickness to speak of. A bit of cramping at first, the teensiest touch of nausea once or twice, but nothing compared to what I hear about others dealing with. (Our Sunday School class is in the midst of a pregnancy outbreak right now, in which I am the current tail end of what will end up being seven babies born to six moms between August 2009 and August 2011.)
I am constantly tired. That's been my main symptom. Most days I feel like I need a nap immediately after school, and whether I get one or not, I tend to conk out on the couch by about 9:00pm. At this moment, I'm watching the Miss America pageant, which is keeping me up until at least 10.
I'm going to try to update the blog a bit more frequently as this pregnancy progresses. But then again, I feel as though I may have made that promise (minus the pregnancy part) before. So, we'll see. Here's hoping!
