Time for whine

WARNING WHINING AHEAD: I'm starting to feel a bit discouraged. I really feel like my body will never feel normal again. I've been forcing myself to eat apple sauce and chips everyday and I'm sick of it. I really would like to be able to eat a normal meal and enjoy myself. I've been taking a new drug called Zofran (new to me) to help with the morning sickness. It's been helping quite a bit. I'm no longer vomiting when I'm on it but it totally drains me of any energy. I still can't eat much either, especially today. Jack greeted me this morning with a poopy diaper and ever since I've felt awful. It's a little overwhelming to think that I'm going to have three kids in diapers. I can't imagine what the next few years are going to be like. I'm sick of the winter too. I'm ready to go outside and absorb some vitamin D. As a child living in Oregon my mom would make me go outside in the winter whenever there was sunlight to ward off depression. Smart woman. I've been waiting to do that for awhile now, but we seem to have permafog here in Kansas City.

Try starting potty training with Jack when you start to feel better, toward the end of your pregnancy. That's what I did with Benji and it took 6 months before he was fully able to do it, but at least it made me feel better knowing he was going in the right direction. He was about the same age as Jack when I had James so I think it could work. Sorry you're feeling so crappy. I'm glad the Zofran is working but you might just be tired from lack of food and you're making two babies to boot. I heard pregnancy is like working 2, 40 hour a week jobs and you're making two so you might just be working quadruple overtime. I hate overcast days too. I hope the sun comes your way soon. I know how you feel. That's why I love my house on sunny days because the rays come in our huge windows. Take care and if you need anything let me know. We love you.

Oh, sorry to hear all that. I really can't imagine what its like to be in your position right now. If you need to do some whining in person....you know where I live. I'm more than willing to listen. :)

I wish I could come help you with Jack. Just take it one day at a time at this point, pretty sure that is the only option you have. Sorry

I'm sorry you're feeling down too Liza. If it makes you feel better, at least your entire city didn't collapse and you aren't living homeless, next to a mound of dead bodies...

(Someone said this to me today and I actually got annoyed. So I'm sorry if it annoys you. I totally understand if it does and I promise I don't judge you.)

I'm sorry. Having two parasites inside is hard (I hope it doesn't bother you that I called them that. That's what I called mine until they were born, so no offense intended toward your little ones).
I hope it gets better for you soon!
