Mind you this list only covers the first 6 months.
There is a condition called "pre-pregnancy deafness." It happens when the woman who wants to have a baby is told (even warned) about most of those conditions taking place at some time during pregnancy believes that it can't possibly be that uncomfortable since women (many of them who are smarty than the average bear) continue to get pregnant over and over again.
Malka, I hope that you have moments of painless, nausealess joy. Ours are when I read your posts out loud to Ericka and we laugh so hard. Sorry, Its not our fault that you make your own difficulties so hilarious. We certainly love you, all 3 of you and wish you much happiness.
It would be impossible for me to blog about my life of I didn't have the image of you two laughing at me as inspiration. Miss you lots.
Until now I never understood the blessing in the morning service …"Blessed be you o Lord who has not made me a woman". Reading you blog i now understand……..LOL………..
Oh Malkie! It's just the beginning of the next 18 years of joy! Lots of that stuff hasn't cleared up for me yet (but its only been 4 years). It's much easier to ignore when a little life is depending on you for survival 24/7.
I'm very happy for you two, Malka!
Thank you Malka! I really wish someone had given me some sort of warning about the nausea–it's insane. Every day some new weird thing happens to my body. The ligaments! The belching! The congestion!
Ugh! I am so sorry AND so happy for you! Conflicting feelings… it's all part of the game, huh?
