alright mothers

how how how did you get through your first trimester without feeling like death?

i am dealing with smells, constant headaches and serious heartburn. oh and some crazy food aversions.

smells are just killing me. i've changed my deodorant, my laundry soap, my shampoo, i can't stand nag champa anymore, my whole house smells like it's

yeah i had a really hard time going grocery shopping when i was pregnant.. it lasted through the entire pregnancy. but that was my only hardship in that way.. i had a little nausea but that was only the frist trimester really.. then it was my ankles that hurt!

question: hoping for a boy or girl? are you finding out? or do you "have a feeling" yet?

[silentasabreath]

yeah we are going to find out. i'll go nuts if i don't! :-P
i want a girl jason wants a boy. what a surprise. i haven't had a feeling but in the few dreams i've had about the baby, it's a girl. and everyone calls it a girl. so we'll probably have a boy :-P

I had the smell situation. all the smells around me were way too strong and made me feel nausea but i would only throw up in one period of time each day. My neighbors had this strong onion smell that creeped into my apartment and it made me crazy and I couldn't handle it and would have to go outside or leave because it was so bad. the other day they had the onion smell and it was hardly noticable (i guess it's something they make every time this season). I hardly had heartburn, I had to take naps because my head hurt and i was dizzy. that helped a lot. so many of the foods i normally would eat didnt seem pleasurable at all and I couldn't stand it. chocolate was 75% of my diet haha

haha. oh goodness. this is not encouraging haha. i am praying that the yuckiness clears up 2nd trimester, because i was sick sick sick my firs month and that's alleviated, but it's been replaced by smells and headaches.

maybe wait like 5 years until another baby :-P

nah i'm going to wait to have another baby come 3 total years away. . . .when we have a bigger place to live so Leto can have his own room too. i dread having to be pregnant again but i do want more kids and it did go by fast even though it was a pain in the bum.

oh i just remembered, my nausea and throwing up didnt happen as often if I ate something my stomach could handle . . .so i would have to have chocolate milk every morning and perhaps an egg sandwhich or a well done/over hard egg to eat. so try to eat something as soon as you wake up.

smells!!! ahhhh they get to me sooo bad! in the first trimester I could NOT stand coffee...yes, I do run a coffee shop...figure that one out. I learned to hold my breath ane make coffee and then quickly smell something desirable...and wash my hands. I'm still plagued by coffee but it's not nearly as bad.

usually it ends after the first trimester...so THEY say...ha ha ha.
