Evidence of You

Dear Baby:

I know you are there, though by my best guess (and according to BabyCenter.com) you are still a tiny pea thus far. But, size aside, your presence is definitely felt in every whiff of food that my suddenly super-powered nostrils catch and in every bit of food that I force through my lips.

I feel sick, sick, sick -- but I'm not blaming you, because I'm aware my body is only adjusting and preparing to take care of you. I'm happy to take on that job. But I do so wish I could eat a bit more -- or a bit more healthily -- to make sure you'll grow up big and strong...!

For now, I hope saltines, plain water crackers, the occasional sour Jamba Juice-without-boost, the vitamins I manage to muster down and Preggie Pops galore can suffice. Til another day...

I love you!
