It is Wednesday, March 17th. St. Patty's Day. My lovely husband just left to enjoy a lunch full of beer to celebrate being Irish and his Birthday - which I was too sick last night to help him celebrate properly.
I am a bit jealous - St. Patty's Day was always one of my favorite days to go out and partake in fun, green libations. But living in LA makes it a bit easier to not celebrate - if I was still in Chicago, I think I would be crying in my water! Either way, today, I am just happy to feel somewhat good and for the happy breeze running through our condo. This week it has been hitting 80 at the beach - which means it is hot - and without air conditioning and a breeze it can be quite stifling in here. Today, I am looking out at the lovely waves, the people enjoying the warmth and the breeze is keeping me cool. I am a bit nervous for the summer when I am big and the heat is more prevalent...Our little ghetto air conditioner in the bedroom may not work so well! Or I will set-up permanent residence in the bedroom for the summer!
My mom has decided to fly in this afternoon to help me out with grocery shopping and cooking. This is a God send since I cannot step foot inside a grocery as the smells make me want to run to the nearest bathroom stat and I have not cooked a damn thing since I found out I was pregnant. It will be nice to have my mom around - even though Tim has been doing a stellar job taking care of me!
Yesterday was another bad day of pregnancy - my afternoon was filled with waves of nausea that rocked into the night, very little food as everything I tried did not help and me crying from the pain. See, I do not deal with pain well, I am a 100% a baby!
Enjoy St. Patty's Day and have one for me=)
Hey, have you looked into switching your prenatals? Also, if you're taking that nasty DHA supplement, stop! That made me sicker than a dog this time, but I didn't have to have it with my other two and they turned out fine. (Also, I did check with my dr., and she said it was okay). My dr. said just take two children's chewable vitamins which works great for me...no vomiting! I, being 30 weeks ahead of you, am whining and complaining for different reasons now. but I won't spoil the fun for you!!:) Congrats and love you,
