Alright, for right now I am feeling pretty good. It's been a little touch-and-go with the nausea thing. Some days are better than others. As long as I'm busy and not thinking about it, it's better. I did pick up some vit B6 candies that are supposed to combat the morning sickness. I had to order them from CVS (although not a prescription) and got them in today. A word to the other preggos thinking of trying them: do not get green apple! The cherry ones are ok, but green apple is gross - which doesn't seem to help with the funky feeling you have already.
Also, I found this cool website: http://www.ingridandisabel.com/ They have these things called BellaBands. So neat! They go under a shirt over your expanding belly and will help to hold up your favorite jeans (that you now wear unbottoned). Best part? You can't even tell!! Looks like you have on a layered tank top under your shirt. I'm definitely getting one soon. I haven't gained but a few pounds so far, but my belly seems to be expanding already! The only thing that is comfy are my stretchy yoga pants and summer knit dresses.
On another note, I'm gearing up for another day of work tomorrow. Lately I seem to have to psych myself up for going. Don't get me wrong, I don't regret telling an overwhelmed mom that I can keep her two & four year old 3 days a week... but my energy levels are not really up to par these days. I find myself trying to talk them into watching a movie or sitting in my lap for story time much more lately. I guess that's okay some, but I'm finding that after a few hours of quiet activities they're ready to bounce off the walls. Guess I'm learning about mommyhood early! Lots of activity in the morning = good naps and a better afternoon for the nanny.
Well, better go pack a lunch. Or some pretzels and trail mix anyway.
