So sick :(

Posted In: Everyday life — May 11, 2005 @ 1:58 am — Stephanie

Well, now that the families have been officially informed, I can come clean in a post. Peter and I are expecting a baby! The wee one is due to arrive early December, just in time for Christmas. I’m about 11 weeks along, and things seem to be proceeding nicely–for baby at least. : / I’ve been feeling pretty miserable all-around since I hit about 4 1/2 weeks. What a terrible misnomer morning sickness is! I’m sick morning, noon, and night, with sleep my only respite. It’s gotten so bad, that I have developed a taste for how food tastes coming up. Why am I posting now instead of receiving my much-needed relief? Because I just had to attend a party over the toilet, where I was the guest of honor, of course. No matter how thoroughly I brush my teeth, the taste of vomit is never far from my tongue.

After brushing my teeth and grabbing a cold pack from the freezer for my splitting headache, I thought it might be nice to get some comfort from my wonderful husband. My loving, caring husband pushed me away with all of the force of a gladiator jostling his opponent off the platform. In tears, I begged him to please cuddle with me. But no, no, no–this man, THIS man simply flipped over onto his stomach, effectively shutting me out. In retaliation (and utter disgust at his ungentlemanly behavior), I held my icy cold pack against one of his feet. Ha ha! Take that, you cruel, unfeeling ass! His response? Not a single whimper. No protestations of any kind. So much for my vengeance.

Oh. Sorry, time to return to that wonderful party I talked about earlier…
