God bless saltine crackers.

So... I'm sort of continually at a loss for what to make for dinner. That and the fact that I really have no energy at all in the late afternoon. Why? you may wonder....

well, this would be because I. AM. PREGNANT.

*surprise.
I've known for like a month, but it is getting far enough along ( I hope) that nothing really awful will happen. ( fingers crossed)
I had some bad symptoms this week and had to mis a half hour of work to go get a blood test, but everything seemed good. So lets hope that's the only reason I have to be alarmed till the end when I'll be really freaked out. I didn't know about this when I got pregnant! *shudders. They must not tell people about that on purpose. Bastards.

so yeah, I'm tired, I feel ill most of the afternoon, but I don't atually get sick. I need to eat more frequently, but less food. Believe it or not, I've lost a couple pounds so far. I think it must be all the water I'm drinking.

I have to take these really large pink prenatal vitamins that taste really bad. They also have a charming side effect of turning the contents of my stomach to cement. *fun.

The baby is due July 22 by their calculations but I think it is a few days earlier, possibly the 17th. My mothers birthday is the 15th, and she was born on her grandmothers birthday, so if that worked out, it would be pretty cool.

My first appointment is at the crack of dawn on monday, so I may have more to report then. We shall see. Nine weeks and counting, or is it the start of 10 now?

Time is already flying.
