Further Instructions!
First of all. I love you guys. Thank you so much for your support.
I'm...okay with it. It's not the ideal time for me to be pregnant, but since I am (about 4 weeks, I think), it's something I have to deal with. And I'm lucky to have a wonderful man who I know will take care of us.
My biggest problem right now is just the changes in my body. I mean, I've been through this before, but I think when I was pregnant with Gabe, I was too focused on "OHSHITOHSHITOHSHITWHATDOIDOOMG" to REALLY be aware of my changing form. I'm already showing, which makes me think that it might be twins, and my breasts have swollen to twice their normal size, and they're so sore that they feel like they're on fire. I couldn't get to sleep for hours last night, because every time I would move I would accidentally bump one of my tits and be in agony for the next 5 minutes. Not to mention that I had to actually SIT UP and sort of slide my entire body down in order to readjust myself.
The one positive is that my morning sickness hasn't been that bad, really. I'm focused on eating right, getting lots of folic acid, drinking lots of soy milk, water, and juice, and I think it's making a difference. When I was pregnant with Gabe, I was sick the first 6 months, all day, every day, no matter what I ate. I'm glad that that's not the case this time. Although I could seriously do without my wacky, wacky emotions right now. One minute I'm crying, the next I'm pissed off, the next I'm so joyous I feel as though I can't contain it.
It's going to be an interesting 8 months.
