Feeling Drunk – but Not!

You know that feeling after you’ve had too much to drink and you lie down on your bed, and you start to feel like you’re going to throw up? And you sit up, and it feels better? And then you lie back down, and it feels like you’re going to throw up? And you go to the toilet, and try to throw up, and nothing? And then you lie down and it feels like you’re going to throw up? And it repeats all night… Yeah, that was last night, except obviously I didn’t have any alcohol first! I’m still a little queasy today… And I’m exhausted, as this started about an hour after I went to sleep, and continued throughout the night. I would finally get to sleep, and then about half an hour later I’d wake up, thinking I was about to throw up! This can’t be morning sickness yet, right? I think it’s too early. I’m kind of hoping it’s not morning sickness already, because one night of this was awful, I can’t imagine months of this, and it will probably get worse! Hopefully I’m just a little sick I guess. Weird.

But no matter what, none of this can ruin my thrill – I’m still pregnant!!! I POAS again this morning, and the line was a little darker… I talked to the Hubs last night on the phone for about 5 minutes, and it took everything I had to not tell him our news. I need to make it through one more night, and then I get to tell him tomorrow night! I decided I’m going to give him a gift with a couple things that I forgot I had bought over the last year: a onesie with “Daddy’s Little Tax Deduction” (we’re both CPA’s, and he was just saying while we were doing our taxes that kids would help…), a really cute sleeper with “Daddy’s Sleeping Cutie” on it, and a pregnancy book for dads called “My Boys can Swim!” It’s a funny and short book for new dads, written by a dad. Can’t wait to give it to him, and see his reaction!

  7. My acupuncturist told me that if I get pregnant, she can help with first-trimester nausea. So hopefully your acupuncturist can make sure that last night isn't the norm for you for the next few months. And I can't wait for you to tell your hubby!
