Maternity Pants

Yesterday was horrible. I think lack of sleep caused me to have morning sickness. I threw up a couple times in the morning at work, and my stomach felt pretty queasy all day. I got some great sleep last night, so I’m hoping that will cure it for me, that it’s not a reaccuring event. I’m not fond of puking.

Last night I bought my first pair of maternity pants. I’m not ready to use them yet, but I got them for work, so when I do start to need them, I’ll have them. I looked last time I was at the store I didn’t see any (black pants) so I swoped up on them, since it will be "summer clothes" weather by the time I can. I didn’t want to have a problem finding them. When we left for the store last night we smelled smoke, and the whole neighborhood was filled with it. A fire engine passed us, so we flipped around and followed them. We didn’t want to leave his parents if we had to get them out. They stopped at the dead end leading into the woods five houses down from us, and Chris pulled up to talk to them. Appearently they were searching all over our subdivision for the fire, and thankfully, it was further away. They finally left around 10pm, after we had left and gotten back from the store.

So another symptom I’m having is constipation. I hate it. I’m plooting out farts left and right, but nothing else wants to come unless I force it too.

As for my friend Mo, she was later in her pregnancy, and drank a soda, when the baby didn’t move she realized she couldn’t remember when her little girl had moved last. Appearently the problem had something to do with the cord. So they baby is stillborn, and she’s at the hospital delivering. Her name was Madeline. Mo also has lupus which made her pregnancy high risk to begin with, but she has one child already. I cried for her, and her baby for a good hour before and on my way to work yesterday. She’s not perfect, but no one deserves to lose a child.
