Aggh. Food is not my friend. I was all determined to continue my healthy diet through pregnancy, but I wasn't counting on how much my body would desire (or despise) different types of food. It's like trying to control a puppy. I am constantly thinking of food, but thinking of food makes me feel ill. So, anything that doesn't make me turn green when I think of it, I rush to find it and feed the monster (me). So far, the spicier the better. And salty - that's OK too. But a bowl full of veggies - no way. Alas, I am trying to stay with my exercise program so that I don't feel guilty for the spicy burrito that I crave. Such a strange dance!
Other than that, I am feeling exhausted and nauseous in the mornings and evenings, and occasionally in between. So, pretty good all around.
I feel a small weight in my belly - like a presence that is different from the rest. I definitely feel it when I do abs work or yoga. Even on our bike ride today (which was awesome), I could feel an intensity in my belly while I was riding. It's cool to think that already my body is making room for a tiny little being to grow.
I'm trying to enjoy many of the things I won't be able to do easily soon. Rough house with Cody, read him books while cuddled up close, get yummy back rubs from Rowdy while lying on my belly, etc. Soon, my belly will be growing.....
