Things that I totally forgot about, but are identical to my last pregnancy:
- I will want to eat yogurt. I will eat yogurt. The second the last spoonful clears my throat, I will be praying to the porcelain god.
- Every time I sneeze, I will have a sharp pain on both sides of my uterus.
- I will have morning breath all day, even right after brushing.
- My Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder will be worst while I sleep. When I wake up in the middle of the night, I will create weird little patterns that I have to complete before I can fall back asleep. In the morning, I will vaguely remember that this happened, but I will not know what the pattern was.
- I will have to hide at work because my office is right next to the kitchen and I swear to God if someone else makes garlicky Italian food in that microwave again I will cut them with the little plasticware knives.
So far, I have not actually vomited. This is a huge step forward from the pregnancy with Alliclaus. Also, no "mysterious" bleeding like I had the entire time I was pregnant with her. That said, I feel like crap. But I'm hopeful that this pregnancy will be different than the last. I was still throwing up less than a week before Alliclaus was born. I could do without a repeat of that.
But guess what I am doing right now? I am totally blogging from my couch because I got my new laptop and got the wireless router set up. This will be awesome when I (undoubtedly, in my estimation) have feet the size of boats and have to keep them constantly up. I will just lay in bed and blog.
Only down side? The DVD-ROM drive on my new laptop is busted. I think I may have to send the computer back to get it fixed. Which means I will be back to typing as quietly as possible on our desktop while Alliclaus naps. But classes start in a week and a half. Live class-blogging, anyone?
mmmm, feet the size of boats, sexy.

good luck with the pregnancy. i'll be sending over a bloggy friend of mine who's pregnant with her first - she wanted to find some support in the blogosphere.
as for blogging from class, it's awesome. i've done it many times, and i highly recommend it. :)

2 out of 3 of my pregnancies were the same. I had not what was called morning sickness, but morning/noon/night sickness with my 1st 2 DD's. My last one I had nausea like ya wouldn't beleive drank tons of ginger ale (haven't since) and figured this was my boy, but nope was a girl LOL.

Hopefully it stays this way the whole pregnancy, no vomitin is a very nice thing!

Just doing a BlogHer tour and stumbled upon your site.
I can soooo relate to OCD coming on strong at night. I was obsessed with going to the bathroom. Seriously. Some nights, I felt like I went every hour. Sometimes, every 15 minutes. Because the moment I climbed back into bed, I would think, "Oh no!! Do I have to go again?" Ahhh, the joy!

YAY! You're going to BlogHer! (Saw the list over at IzzyMom!)

The whole time I was pregnant with my second I was 100% convinced I was having a girl because I had the SAME pregnancy. Of course you know the punch line. He is now 2 years old and ALL boy.
Congratulations! I hope you feel better soon. "Morning" sickness bites.

Laptop + wireless = totally awesome, I agree. Unfortunately I don't blog anymore, but I do twitter and read everyone elses blog from the laptop. Hope you get the DVD-Rom fixed soon.
You and Miss Zoot are both newly pregnant and I am so very excited. It's been a little while since any of the bloggers whose sites I read have been pregnant. I'm hoping to join your ranks soon. ;)
