*Twiddling Thumbs*

Nothing much to report today. Insides still yucky, but nausea is down. Eating normally again; still on heavy fluid intake.

Today feels like one of those unfortunate wasted days spent mainly getting through the day. One day closer to ultrasound, one day closer to baby. I'm trying so hard to be good and eat/drink what I should and not allow myself to slip any more than reasonable... I know poor little tadpole only gets one shot at the first 8-10 weeks of development, and they're the most important weeks of the whole pregnancy. So I'm working hard to control the bad cravings and feed the good ones. Let me tell you, it sucks. I have gone almost a week without desserts. Last Monday or so, Rick and I had milkshakes at Cold Stone. That was the last one. Other than the sugar in the ginger ale that saved my stomach last week, I don't think I've had anything with added sugar. And sometimes I think I could KILL for another milkshake.

In other news, mom reports that she and my stepdad are taking on the crib purchase! Yay!  And Rick and I looked into some options with the house that would let us out from under the last of our debt! If all goes well, we could be in fantastic shape by spring, all ready to home-improve and focus on the tadpole!

I guess there was some good from today. Rick agreed that his dental work was important so that he could stop hurting and be fully present for the kiddo. :)
