Midwife Meeting & Good Stuff



We had an excellent meeting with the midwife. We got lots of good info and loved her personality. She's very mothering and has a gentle spirit about her. She'll be taking a birthing class with us in July/August.
I haven't been feeling well at all since my last post. I think I jinxed myself. Lots of nausea and low energy which turns into the blues.
Things I've been craving:
  • Hard candy
  • Golf
  • Orange pop (I haven't bought any yet, but it sounds YUM--oh, and I haven't had orange pop in years)
  • Crystal's Pickles--Vlasic will have to do for now until I can make some this summer. Or, get another jar from her, hint hint! ha!
  • Champagne (off limits!!!!!)
  • Ice Cream
I'm sure I'll add to this list.

Things I love about pregnancy:
  • The cravings
  • Baby clothes
  • Being excited about something good, pure and a new life
  • General feeling of well-being--the hormones make me feel good!
  • Having to take time for myself and learn how to rest
Things that I'm not so fond of:
  • The smells--ewww. I can smell anything a mile away!
  • Puking almost every day
  • My body expanding
  • Feeling as if I can't do the things I want to due to sickness
  • Thinking twice about something and wondering if it's safe (i.e., pulling up carpet or spray painting), and then not being able to do those things.
  • Eating every two hours
  • The acne that is so horrible. I will need to get reconstructive facials after this baby!
