Okay so I just have a few things to say about early pregnancy (in hopes that things will get better in the future)... it is such strange experience. Like, I'm really not myself these days. For instance, the only foods I ever crave (which is a rare occurrence these days anyway) is something nasty that I wouldn't dream of eating otherwise. I have been known to have hankerings for taco bell mexican pizzas and top ramen of all things! It's insane. Why am I never in the mood for something delicious, while I have this pregnancy umbrella shielding me from worrying about spending the money? Cafe Rio--why not you? Another strange thing is my senses...they seem to be extra sensitive these days. Never have lights seemed so bright, voices seemed so loud, burnt food smelled so strong-- it's crazy. The worst part is my aversion to Jordan. My poor husband who slaves away nursing me back to health absolutely revolts me these days... it is so sad:(. It's mostly his smell (which is strange because that's usually something I love most about him)... he will want to come give me a hug or something, but it won't last for 3 seconds before I have to tell him to go away 'cause I might be sick. Anyway, after listening to stories of my pitiful state, my friend Carlee gave me a book of hers that she said would cheer me up, and boy did it ever. I recommend it to anyone who is in for a good laugh, pregnant or not! It's called Hatched: The big push from pregnancy to motherhood. It is absolutely hysterical... and I never thought that in all this strange misery I would be able to relate with a bunch of fuzzy chicks... Anyway, if any of you moms out there have ever experienced being disgusted with your husband during early pregnancy, hit us with a comment so Jordan won't feel so picked on:)
