10 weeks...My oh my it feels like eternity. This is a very rough pregnancy. If you have read the book What to expect when you are expecting, there is a laundry list of side effects, to which I can check off Every one of them. Stretching, cramping, bloating, nausea, fatigue, weakness, just plain yucky. It kicked in around 6 weeks and has increasingly gotten worse. I'm doing my best to stay positive, hoping it will pass at the twelve week mark. I feel so bad I don't even leave the house, let alone answer the phone. I'm very thankful to my children and husband, they are taking great care of us. As for now I live off triscuts and cheese, anything I drink doesn't settle, but I must continue to intake liquids. I trust God is taking care of us. Crossing fingers this passes soon!
