"Am I going to feel like this forever?" is a common thought that goes through my head. I laugh when a week ago I would worry when I didn't "feel" pregnant that something was wrong. I was sure if I felt more symptoms, it would be more real. BAM, you get what you ask for!
Let me start out by saying that I am thankful for this amazing blessing. I love seeing my hubby so excited about it as well. We are still in shock and trying to figure out where God may be leading us. It seems like there are so many unanswered questions right now. We had another adoption support mtg last night, and our hearts are still for adoption (how could they not with the cute 2 yr old from the Philippines wanting you to hold him!!!) We are wondering if God is calling us to adopt internationally. But, those decisions will be made not now, but after some intense prayer of searching for where God is leading us! I'm trying to tell myself, one step at a time.
On the home front, I'll be honest and say I feel like junk. In all my gassy, nauseated, exhausted, no appetite but constantly hungry, strong sniffer ways, I can find it hard in my day to be thankful I feel this way...I never thought I'd feel this junky when I got pg. I thought I'd have a couple light symptoms and I'd be on cloud nine. I think I had fairytale thoughts on what pregnancy would be like. I will say, that I'm sure my attitude will change once we see this little one's heart beat next Monday. I have to keep reminding myself that this is a miracle and to enjoy this time, because I may never experience another pregnancy after this one. So, my prayers focus on my little miracle, my attitude today, and thankfulness that I don't have to question if I feel pg or not!

Sorry that you are feeling so yucky. Hope some of the symptoms subside soon.
