Update on Baby Maltburg

For those of you that are interested, here is a quick update on the last few months of my pregnancy (for those of you who aren’t, stop reading now!).

Up until exactly 6 weeks to the day, I felt fine. That dreaded 6 week mark was the beginning of my own silent little torture world (sometimes not so silent) and the end of the wife that Phil is used to. From 6 weeks until pretty much last week (which was 13 weeks), this is what my life consisted of:

Sleep, Throw up, Feel sick, Eat, Sleep, Feel sick, Eat, Sleep, Go to bed (sometimes throw up before bed)

Now I’ve progressed so that my sleeping is less (although still more than usual for me), my throwing up & feeling sick is mainly limited to the morning, (By the way whoever coined the phrase “morning sickness” clearly has never been pregnant. It is more like all day and wake you up at night sickness.) and eating… I think the eating has taken the place of the feeling sick & throwing up part. Basically I feel like I have clock in my belly that goes off when it hasn’t had food in at least 1 hour (sometimes 1 ½ hrs). If we hadn’t heard the heartbeat already, I’d swear that I had a tape worm.
