10 weeks!

We are finally into the double digits....10 weeks! 2 1/2 months. If you asked me how I was doing my answer would depend on the day and time. Yesterday I don't know if I would have even answered you for fear of bad words or throw up coming out. I really need to do the dishes right now but any slight smells of food make me gag. I don't have morning sickness. I have evening sickness. Bad, bad evening sickness. It comes on around 4 or 5pm and lasts until I go to bed. It is terrible. Can you tell I am having a bad day?

On a lighter note....I get this email from this pregnancy website telling me what's going on with my baby each week. Here are some highlights of what it says for this week:
"Your baby is no longer an embryo! All your fetuses vital organs — the liver, kidney, intestines, brain, and lungs — are now in place and starting to function. During the next three weeks, your baby's length will more than double to nearly 3 inches. Each day, more minute details — including tiny fingernails, toenails, and peach-fuzz hair — start to appear on her body. She is busily swallowing amniotic fluid and kicking her legs. Your uterus has doubled in size by now. Before you got pregnant, it was the size of a small pear. By this week, it's grown to the size of a grapefruit. "
It also talks about "evening" sickness and recommends eating a big meal in the morning and just snacking at night when you are not feeling well. Not great advise but that's OK. It's mention in the email is validation enough that I am normal and not alone.

A couple more light notes......It seems a few things have improved. I don't have quite as many migraines as I used to. I still have them, but they are less frequent. Maybe because I sleep more and if I am not sleeping I am laying on the couch. I don't do much anymore that would bring on a migraine. And my complexion has improved. I have always had bad skin and it seems as though it has cleared up a bit over the last month. My neck is not giving me too many problems either. Again, probably because I don't move around very much and spend a lot of time in the horizontal position but still.....I will take it!

P. took on two classes at ITT this quarter. I feel bad for him working so hard for us all the time. Lately I feel like I don't contribute anything to the relationship or house. I can't even make him dinner because the food and smells make me sick. I hope he understands this is temporary. This IS temporary isn't it? Isn't it?
