Ok so this is the week where the shock is wearing off and all I want to do is cry. I find myself crying while I am working or suddenly while I’m on the phone, or while I’m watching TV, or trying to sleep, etc. My sister Amanda put it this way, even though eventually I will think it is a blessing right now I have to mourn for the ‘normal’ pregnancy that I had envisioned. I had imagined I would keep working out and gain the 30-35 pounds and have a cute little pooch and enjoy pregnancy. Now I am suppose to gain 50-60 lbs and eat between 3,000 -4,000 calories a day and I know I will outgrow the ‘cute’ maternity period by the middle of my second trimester. I will also miss out on taking my babies home with me from the hospital and there will be no little outings with my new baby to the store or park, etc.
On another note, I have started reading a good book by Dr. Barbara Luke, it was highly recommended on the triplet forums that I read. I am trying to get in all the food and vitamins that she suggests, but it is tough. First of all my morning sickness is continuing sometimes into the evening and I hardly want to eat anything at all. On the way to work the other day I actually threw up twice while driving, thank goodness I had an empty cup.
