The biggest reason I’ve been away from the blog is that I’m pregnant and that has sort of consumed my life for the last three months. Blogging seemed completely unimportant as I lie on the couch for an entire weekend sure I was going to toss my cookies at any second. And blogging seemed utterly exhausting as a complete lack of energy overtook my body.
Well, here I am in the second trimester and feeling better. The waves of nausea have passed and the exhaustion comes and goes. I’m hoping to post more regularly and will try not to bore you to tears with tales of a new mother-to-be.
I will offer up this bit of insight: Here are a few comments you just shouldn’t say to expectant mothers:
Person One: How are you feeling?
Expectant Mother: Better, but still really tired.
Person One: Just wait, it gets worse. You’re going to be tired for the next 18 years.
Person Two looking at EM’s high heels: You won’t be wearing those shoes for long.
Person Three: Oh, look at your belly and cute clothes.
EM: Well, I just couldn’t breathe in my regular clothes.
Person Three: Just wait, it gets worse.
Gee, thanks for the advice. I feel much better.
