Dorritos For Breakfast

You know you're not yourself when your son is eating Cool Ranch Dorritos for breakfast.

Or when you sent your husband out to buy you Hot Tamales at 9:30 at night because you thought cinnamon candy sounded good.

Or when you have left your house and driven your car twice in the last two weeks.

But, my not self is building an amazing creation that I got to see in an ultra sound yesterday.

The legs and arms were flailing about and the little body was jumping around.

All is well and healthy for the creation.

So, I think I can endure not being myself a while longer.

I think.

I'm so happy your little miracle is so healthy. I can imagine you are past drained already, but women like you that have to fight harder than some of the rest to get life here is so inspirational.. There is nothing more beautiful than the whole creation process. It is the most miraculous, mind-blowing, amazing gift to carry a child!! I'm so in awe of women like you that fight so hard to bring sweet spirits here. Go you, Lisa!!

Lisa, you are so amazing. I had no idea you were going through all of this. The Lord is blessing you in so many ways and you of all people can see that. He is totally carrying you...both. What an angel mother you are, fighting for this child inside you. What a special bond you will always have. I love you. I will pray for you. :)

Sounds like you've got a great attitude about it all! I'm ashamed to say that I wasn't even the slightest bit excited with my first ultrasound to see how far along I was. I was so sick that I didn't care, and I was still in denial that I was actually pregnant. Some days I'm still in denial! LOL
I didn't drive for a few months because I was so dizzy. It was weird to get behind the wheel after all that time. But I hated being trapped.
Zack kept asking if I was going to throw the baby up, since everything else was coming out that way. And I'm afraid he's scarred for life... I gagged last week as I brushed my teeth, and the poor kid came running into my room with his eyes wide open and asked if I was "frowing up" again.
Now I've got less than 5 weeks left. Hallelujah! I can't wait until you are feeling much better. It sure makes the time go a bit faster when you aren't laying on the bathroom floor wanting to die.
I hope it gets LOTS better for you very soon!
