Eight weeks down and Thirty-two to go.... What Makes Me Sick?

The word is out! (Thanks to me:-) I'm pregnant, due April 22nd. I've been so thrilled to be pregnant, and then sick to boot, that I just couldn't keep it in any longer. The most random things contribute to my bouts of nausea through-out the day. As I was listening to myself tell Matt about how disgusting the hand soap made me feel in the kitchen and "please don't leave the fan on in the bathroom, the sound makes me sick," I realized how seriously riduculous I must have sounded. But it's true! Mostly smells, but some sounds and feels only exaserbate my continuous nausea. I thought that they should be written down for my future little one. (Maybe he or she will have a strong aversion to these things when they come into this world, who knows!)

What Makes Me Sick, The List:

Smelly Handsoap (anything of fruit descent)

Warm showers & moist bathrooms

Onions

Ground Beef

The sound of the bathroom fan

The after taste of my vitamens

A dark house in the daytime

Curry

What I Crave:

Ice and Cold Drinks

Grapefruit

Apples and Peanut Butter

Soda Crackers and PB

Veggie Sandwiches with the works

Avocado

Tater Tots

French Fries and CocaCola

Refried Beans and Mexican Rice

I'll probably add to these lists as the next five weeks come and go. I'm crossing my fingers that this nausea will come and go with the first trimester--like with my other three little rascals. 

But as for now, nausea is a good sign and I'm very happy to have a little one growing in my tummy.

Oh, this is fun (ok, not really). I'm already showing. Seriously, I'll be pulling out my maternity clothes very soon. What in the world! Age is a nasty thing.
