Week 8: March 30 - April 5 (Raspberry)

I am still miserable in terms of eating, but I'm almost done with 2 months, 8 more to go! I think i'm just ready for the first tri to be over. I saw two girls from my highschool post they're preggers on FB and although I'm not sure if I would do a mass announcement out of fear for the Evil Eye (yea its big in India and the Jewish worlds). I want the world to know, mainly to cut me some slack. I'm the type of person who always gets involved with many things, loves to be social, active, hospitable, and I have got to take some time for me. I feel like it might just provide me a valid excuse. Yea yea it might make me a bad person, but i'm borderline sociopath to enjoy it for a short while. One thing I have yet to address is the awful awful stomach issues. They are not kidding when they say stomach issues are a symptom. Its just awful. I mean eat bad, eat healthy = same outcome. The other thing that's been in the back of my mind is constantly thinking about the baby. I mean it was so cool to see the heartbeat on the monitor at the doctor's office, how else are we supposed to know everything is a-ok? Tom Cruise is a nutcase, but I think he even got an ultrasound machine for the house when Katie Holmes was preggers with his (adorable) spawn. I get it, it would be so nice to hang out and see lil one. Everyone says think positive, which I am, but its natural to worry as a first time mom-to-be. This has been a crazy physical, emotional, and mental ride thus far.
