Today was boring. I was supposed to study for finals but felt the house needed cleaned instead. Doing laundry and sweeping the floor is the most work out I have had in a long time! Aside from light walking, I have not been working out. I spoke to a nice gal at the gym the other day about her pregnancy. She is rail thin and all belly. She is at 20 weeks. She told me about her prior miscarriage and how she was working out during her last pregnancy more than she should have been. You can never blame a miscarriage on your situation but everything makes me think. Her midwife told her to take it easy this time around and so for the first three months she did pretty much nothing. I have been so busy with finals and work anyway, that doing nothing has come pretty naturally :)
Caffeine is another sad weeping friend sitting at the curb and begging to come back into my life. However, because studies have not proven the safety nor dangers of caffeine, it is one more of my obsessed precautions I am taking. My Coca Cola sits lonely in the fridge as caffeine free coke has over taken its place. And possibly too much information, but the only other thing I am doing differently is having the lack of a husband around, as he is out to sea. Figure that one out.
I am so tired today! I slept about ten hours last night and even though it is only seven pm now, I think I hear my bed calling my name. How I am going on a trip to see family and still keep this a secret through the nausea, sleepiness, lack of alcohol and caffeine.... not sure it's going to be a secret for long!
Sad news but not mine so I will give zero details other than a navy wife had a miscarriage. Sad times, makes me worried, makes me sad for her, but for those out there pregnant and reading--keep holding hope.
