(since this will be our 2nd child, and our last… and also since we tried so long, and so hard to get pregnant)

But this little sour patch kid, who is quite clearly half of his/her father, is making it tough.

I am only 4w6d.

With my first child, I had no idea I was pregnant until morning sickness started at about 8-9 weeks. I literally don’t remember having any other symptoms (esp. since my cycles were irregular, even then).

But this little booger has me on my toes (and over the toilet) already… This sounds ridiculous, but here are a list of my symptoms so far

1. sore SoRe SORE sooooorrrrre boobs

2. mid-low backache

3. occasional headaches

4. increased sense of smell

5. more frequent urination

6. odd cravings here and there

7. sinus congestion

And tonight/this morning, add one more to the algorithm.

8. “morning” sickness defined as waking me up out of sleep just because midnight has rolled past.

I have woken up to hurl twice. 0200, and 0400. Just so far. And I’m not feeling too hot right now (0530), either.
