For weeks now- maybe 5 or more- I've been so very sick as you know. Not able to leave my comfy bed, hot bath, & pjs. Then Thursday morning, the day I officially started my 11th week of pregnancy, the sun was shining and the sickness had lifted. I was feeling almost like myself again. And it was good.
I was able to get out for a bit by myself on Saturday and spent over an hour at Target- checking out all the things I've missed since I've been holed up in my house. And yesterday we all went to church as a family, which means I showered, put on makeup, and wore these shoes finally for the first time since I got them for my birthday back in early January!
On the way to church I asked my hubby if gas prices have been this high for long now and he said oh yeah. And he remarked that I have been sequestered for a while now. It was so good to be up and moving about again.
Today the sun is not out. It's very rainy. But I still feel like I'm over it. I'm so much better than I had been before. And this is very good.
I'm so happy that you're feeling better and that you left your house! I sympathize...although I haven't been as sick as you, I'm certianly experiencing some crazy bad fatigue and nausea that I never had when I was pregnant with C. But, I've been feeling better since yesterday and am hoping for the best!!
ReplyDeleteI am imaging you emerging from this dark cave......it's kinda funny and you know my sense of humor! =)
ReplyDeleteENJOY THE WEEK!!!

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are feeling back to normal again. It was so nice to see the sun! Makes me think spring might be here soon after all.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear you are feeling better!!!! I am too, and I have to admit it's a little strange... I got so used to feeling sick that feeling great makes me wonder if everything is ok!!!
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear you're on the upswing! And CUTE shoes. I have similar ones by Steve Madden that I LOVE.

I'm glad you are feeling better. I don't know what I would do with myself for that long stuck inside sick. I know it probably felt really good to get out into the world again.
ReplyDeleteYEAH for feelin' better!
ReplyDeleteSo happy you are well enough to get out!! One day at a time.
ReplyDeleteoh girl, I remember those days...and the absolutely GREAT feeling it is to feel even half human again. We really take it for granted when we feel well, don't we? LOL! Glad to hear things are looking up for you!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so glad you're feeling human again!
ReplyDeleteSounds like things can only go uphill from here! I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Cute shoes!
So great to hear you are getting over the not so fun part. Nothing helps like a beautiful day, huh?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're feeling better! Whenever I go somewhere alone, it always ends up being Target. Why is that?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're feeling better! It is hard when you can't do something. It always seems that you want it that much more! I'm glad you're getting out!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that amazing, the day when the nausea and the exhaustion suddenly LIFT? I hope you continue to feel better.
ReplyDeleteI'm so, so happy that you are feeling human again :-) Hopefully the sun will be shining more often these days....

So glad you're feeling better! Those shoes SCREAM Steph to me!
ReplyDeleteSo so glad to hear you are feeling better! :-)
ReplyDeleteThose are cute shoes! So glad that the morning sickness is subsiding some. It's just THE WORST feeling EVER. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me how I don't remember October 2006 at all. In planning for our second we are taking into consideration a month that I can be out of commission. My sis-in-law is off from teaching then!!
Glad to hear you can see the light at the end of the first trimester tunnel! Sounds like you are feeling MUCH better!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you felt up to getting out and about. Hopefully the worst of it is over!
ReplyDeletei'm so happy you are doing better. :) i hope the rest of your pregnancy is easy peasy and you can bask in the glow of it. :)
