the skinny.
i've been sick most of the time, and it wasnt just because muppet's parents came to visit.
going outside has been pretty much nixed for me, i have around 15-20 mosquito bites all over my body (inculding 2 inside my belly button) from being outside a grand total of one hour on saturday. it's miserable like chicken pox. calamine and chiggarid only help a little.
and then there's the eating. i am ravenously hungry every two hours or so, but when i prepare myself something to eat, i can only eat about a quarter to half of the meal, then i go back to feeling sick. i get physically repulsed by the sight of food after i eat a couple of bites. this happened on friday when we went to go get Thai. i'm also tired all the time, but can't really sleep, because of sick-to-stomach feeling, and being itchy all over. but on the up-side, my embryo has officially become a fetus, i have a doctor's appointment next week, and the only articles of clothing that fit me right now (comfortably) are sleepy pants and broom skirts, which i dont have many of…it's a little belly, yes, but my jeans dig in right on the spot that makes me hurl, and my skirt collection is right out, due to eaten-up legs, and that cutting-in previously mentioned with the jeans. what once was loose on me, is now tight. which probably means that next week i'll be looking for maternity wear.
there, now everyone knows how i'm doing.
you may notice that with all of this sick going on, the question of when i start lactating is not so important……actually, it's a very callous thing to ask me right now, so stop.
