I haven't written because I've felt so sad, negative and despondent that I haven't wanted anyone to know. I didn't want to bring anyone down or roll their eyes at my constant complaining. I feel badly for my family because they've had to take the brunt of it. They've earned a place in heave for sure after this experience.
I'm usually able to find the good in any "bad" thing. I've really struggled with that a lot. I'm not being very successful in my efforts. I can see good things but I really can't embrace them. It's so not like me.
The best part of my day is going to bed because my nausea is alleviated for a few hours. The worst part is waking up in the morning because I know there's a long day of homeschooling, child rearing and generally being awake that I have to deal with. I don't think I'm learning much from this experience. That's frustrating me as well. I just feel hopeless.
So, that's enough of my ranting. Only 23 weeks and 2 days to go. I can endure anything. Maybe I should read the scriptures more especially the lines that say "and it came to pass".

"And it came to pass"! love it.
Sorry you're sick.
I keep typing empathetic comments and deleting them:) There's nothing I can say to help you feel better. It just stinks for the duration! You could try listening to Elizabeth Peters' Amelia Peabody books. That's the only way I made it through this pregnancy. I listened to all 19 of them. YIKES!
Thanks Amber. #5 sure is a challenge. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to look into them. Did you get them from the library? I guess we each have our "things" to bear.
