Well, now that I am into the first trimester, I´m beginning to experience those lovely early pregnancy symptoms...especially nausea and exhaustion. I did not know it was possible to feel this tired! It´s crazy...I have to take several naps just to get through a day. Before I was pregnant I could not have napped if I wanted to. I was just not able to sleep during the day. Now I am not able to stay awake!!
Still, that´s not too bad. Sleeping is actually pretty nice. But the nausea, now that is something I could really do without. I am pretty accustomed to being sick, but this is just terrible. I feel terrible all the time. And have you heard that pregnant women are especially sensitive to smells and some smells can make them throw up? Well, I cannot stand the smell of rice! And in case you didn´t know, in Ecuador, all they eat is rice! At every meal! I can´t even cook rice.
I just hope I´m one of the lucky ones whose nausea eases up after the first trimester! God, give me strength!! It will all be worth it in May when the baby is born!
That's too funny, Emily had trouble with rice too! My first few weeks I was in Ecuador and before I was for sure I was pregnant and rice made me nauseous too! WEIRD!
