Still Nauseous...
But not dead!!! Yay!
After taking a number of weeks to process the fact that I am PREGNANT and getting my husband back from Japan, things are starting to settle. I was SO nauseous that I was basically immobilized, puking, trapped at home, which led to extreme cabin fever and severe loneliness. So I discovered the wondrous tablets of Tums, started answering my phone again, and we've been meeting our friends. Today the weather was warm enough that we actually walked along the beach! It was perfect timing, since the temperature is supposed to drop to -20 degrees Celsius by Wednesday. I'm trying not to worry too much about it, as our national groundhog, Wiarton Willie, apparently saw his shadow today, thereby commanding the season of winter to disappear by March 15th. I will certainly hold it accountable if it fails to meet that deadline. American neighbours who also celebrate this rather ridiculous holiday, did your groundhog Paw....... something-Pete see it's shadow too? I could google it, but I prefer to ask. :-)
So, I turned 27. I'm cool with 27, it seems no worse than 26. We had our first ultrasound; the Micro-Cat, as nicknamed by Dog, looks like a cute little shrimp. I saw the heartbeat, which was awesome. I will do everything in my power to protect this little creature.
Other than that, nothing else is new. Expect to see comments from me on your blogs, stat!

You may find that you need a ton of sleep for a while.
Or that, healthy as they doubtless are, veggies jsut aren't working.
But everything changes, so just stay cool and enjoy the awesomeness of your body that knows how to do this.
(When I first saw Sair, in the ultrasound, she was lounging along the bottom of the uterus, like someone lying in a hammock.)
