I feel at 90% today. I am so thankful. I swear, if I don't feel any worse than this, I won't complain until I'm in labor. I do, however, reserve the right to complain then.

I can't believe my energy level today - it feels so wonderful. I wonder if what I had wasn't more than morning sickness. Isn't it strange that morning sickness would go away after a week? Oh well, I will not look a gift horse in the mouth.
I went to the gym! And did a whopping 25 minutes of cardio. Not im...

Tonight is the most normal I've felt in a week. I actually feel pretty good physically. Emotionally - that is a trainwreck right now.In the interests of full disclosure I haven't been logging my food. I'm guessing I'm not too far above or below 1600, but guessing is what gets people - me - in trouble. So I will need to begin logging again. Assuming I still feel relatively normal this coming week, I will try to get to the gym at least three times. If all I do is 20-30 minutes, that is just ...

Today is the end of Week 6. I feel I should begin tracking this more systematically but I just feel so rotten, part of me wants to just go to sleep and wake up in 4 weeks to see if its any better. I just got an email from a high school friend who said week 8 through 14 was really bad for her. I never procrastinate as much as I am right now - I am saying to myself 100 times a day, "I'll do XYZ when I feel better." I dont' think its real to me yet, even given how I feel. I don't have a s...Tuesday, March 8th 2005
I'm dragging today. I am sort of assuming I will feel this way for a while. I couldn't make myself go to the gym last night and I can ALWAYS make myself go to the gym. Perhaps I need to consider just surviving during this first trimester. I know many women experience morning sickness all day long - mine does seem to be worse in the morning. I'm not throwing up - its just a feeling of being "off." I told S last night that I was sorry I wasn't feel very intimate and that I imagined I wou...Monday, March 7th 2005
First journal entry since finding out that I'm pregnant.I told S on the plane ride home that while I didn't want to make too big of a deal about it, my period was late. I wanted him to know, but to also know that it could a whole slew of things - stress, travel, etc. I told him I would take a pregnancy test towards the end of the week if I still hadn't gotten it.
I couldn't wait. The evening we got home, I went to the drug store, bought a test, and took it. And it was positive! It was...
