MIA again.

I've been a bad blogger. You'll have to cut me some slack tho because.........











My period is almost 5 weeks late and I'm sick as a dog. So that makes me almost 9 weeks pregnant :). Which is a 90% blessing and only 10% curse. We've only told close family and friends at this point, so Mum's the word, right? :)

With my last pregnancy, I had hyperemesis gravidarum and it looks like this one is going to be the same. I started taking my medication much earlier this time around tho, and I'm in much better shape than I was at this point last time. I'm not puking 15-20 times a day now. I've graduated to just a few times a week. With Jacob, the nausea was pretty constant until my 6th month, so I'm still wickedly nauseaous all the time, so I'm not expecting much relief until then. HALLELUJAH for drugs tho! I'm not a fan of taking drugs while pregnant, but the alternative for me would be IV fluids and total parentenal (sp?) nutrition (TPN) thru a PICC line for many many months. Not a charming 'alternative', so I'll stick with the druggage. The last baby came out okay with 'em :).

So, summer is finally in full swing in these parts. We're getting temperatures between 26 and 32 degrees in the last little bit. I also am very thankful for air conditioning.
