Perhaps this is a practical joke...

Considering I'm about 10 weeks along and I haven't had any symptoms, this seems like some cruel and unusual practical joke that is being played on me.

With Moriah, I was sick right away from the beginning - had the typical "morning sickness" and found that I couldn't eat eggs or sausage, but craved bacon. I think we went through a pound of bacon a week! Other than those food aversions and cravings, the only other thing that bothered me was toothpaste - it made me gag. (Try brushing your teeth while gagging - it doesn't work well! :-) ) With Ethan, I don't really remember the beginning being horrible, but the last 3 or 4 months I was incredibly uncomfortable. Which would make sense only after I was a few hours into labor and discovered that his shoulders were perpendicular to my pelvis - yikes!

So, now, here I am - with baby number three - some family members may argue that I'm napping more... however, I'd take advantage of nap any day that I could. I haven't really had any food aversions or cravings; and I haven't gained any weight - which considering that the little bambino is only an inch or two long; is a good thing. Maybe on Monday, when I have my first OB appt with the midwife at Woodwinds, I'll be able to hear the heartbeat or see the baby on an ultrasound.

Until then... :-)
