Feeling like crap and other news

Ugh! I feel lousy. My biggest complaints are that I'm tired and am taking more naps than I have since I was 5, and feel like I'm going to throw up close to 24/7. The good news is that since I feel sick all the time I'm not eating much, so I've lost 7 pounds. A friend of mine is an OB/GYN and keeps reminding me this will all be worth it, and I know that it will. I'm trying not to be too big a whiner, but when I feel crappy I look crappy so people ask "what's wrong" and I feel obligated not to lie...

I'm counting down to my second trimester in hopes this will go away by then -- but there are always those people with their horror stories of how this lasted their entire pregnancies. I got a piece of flair on Facebook today that said something to the effect of pregnancy being the best/most rewarding reason to feel like crap or something to that effect -- so true.

Courtney's wedding was this past weekend, and at least I was able to push through for the wedding weekend. She looked amazing -- it took everything I had to keep from bawling as she walked down the aisle, though. I can't wait to see pictures and be able to share them! They are now off to Hawaii for their honeymoon. :)

Back to baby stuff -- the first appointment is Sept. 30th so look for an update around then...

If it is any consolation, I never had morning sickness or felt super icky, but I had the most freakishly awful pregnancy things a gal could have. I would take the feeling like crap any day! You won't remember any of it, when you are holding the most beautiful, precious baby in your arms for the first time!!!!!
