Pukey pepper
The weekend isn't starting off too hot... I woke up this morning at about 5am and really needed to pee. I sat in bed debating for 30 minutes about whether I should leave my warm, cozy oasis and venture to the bathroom or just try and fall back asleep. I decided that I wasn't going to be able to fall back asleep so I ran to the bathroom, did my business and on the way back, I knew I was in for trouble. I could feel my stomach churning, the nausea... Then, all of a sudden, gag! I choke it back, trying to get into that cozy spot in bed, pretending it isn't happening... Gag again, THIS ISN'T HAPPENING!! And then, acceptance. I reach over to my nightside table and grab the heavy duty ziplock bag that is sitting there for just these occasions and begin my first puke session in a few days. I feel bad because I'm probably waking up my husband, but what can I do? And why don't I run to the bathroom? Because who wants to stick their head in a toilet??? I already feel nauseous, I don't think putting my head in a toilet is going to help the situation when I can puke neatly into a ziplock while sitting in the comfort of my delicious bed. I zip up the evidence, come to the kitchen and make a whole foods pop tart (a little treat that the husband picked up for me) along with a glass of milk. And that's what's going on right now... I'm eating my tart and waiting until I feel well enough to go get a few more hours of sleep. Welcome to my life! Oh, and I'm 18 weeks today - Yay! Every day is one step closer to delivery and meeting my little one. Apparently the baby is the size of a bell pepper. Hooray for my little puke inducing pepper!
