Wow - has this been an eye opening week! I finally feel pregnant, as in I feel like I'm carrying around 2 watermelons on my chest. Sounds fun, right?! I've taken mid afternoon naps 2 days in a row - which is a big deal coming from someone who never naps and doesn't even like to nap! I'm asleep on the couch by 8:30pm. I feel a little sick to my stomach if I don't eat something small every couple hours. Growing a baby is tough work!
I've also been extremely lazy, which is definitely not like me. I've used pregnancy as an excuse this week and besides, my doctor did tell me to take it easy until several test results were back. I have my first ultrasound on Monday, and will be anxious to see that everything is okay and I can start my regular running again.
I'll tell you what's also been hard - keeping this a secret!! I went for pedicures with a girl friend who is due to give birth any day now, and boy did I want to chat and share symptoms about early pregnancy with her! Then Matt and I went to happy hour, and I think I was getting a few second glances when I was sucking down water. Let's face it, I always enjoy at least one drink when we're out to dinner or at happy hour.....so me with a water is definitely something new! Today we're headed out to go tubing down the Salt River, also a drinking event, but my excuse is that I'm the designated driver. Valid, right?!
