SHOCK

Oh Em Gee, you guys, I feel almost normal!!! And I haven't even taken my nausea pill today!!

Admittedly, all I have eaten is cottage cheese, apple juice, and a banana... but it's been a lot of cottage cheese? Oh, and two slices of Hawaiian pizza.

And I got, like, 12 hours of sleep last night. But still!

No pain, minimal to no nausea, it has been AWESOME for all the ten hours I have been awake.

I have celebrated by reading 2.5 Robert J. Sawyer novels- Flashforward, Factoring Humanity, and Calculating God. Lot of middle-aged white male scientist protagonists. My favorite, Factoring Humanity, actually had two protagonists, one of which was a middle-aged white FEMALE RESEARCH PSYCHOLOGIST protagonist studying the inscrutable messages of aliens and ending with some fun Jungian stuff, so that was cool.

Basically a lot of "cool skiffy concepts" and "science porn," which I enjoyed. Negatives: Not much character development, a writing style best described as "functional," and an unfortunate tendency to end books by leveling up to some "transcendent" experience. Probably won't deliberately seek him out in the future, but given his extensive back catalogue he would make a good fallback in a reading drought or when stranded in an airport.

P.S. I am pregnant! 11w4d.
