Sick

Nothing is worse than getting sick while pregnant...

Your "go to" over the counter drugs are completely off limits because your freaked out about that little baby might get hurt if you even think about taking them... (I never knew what a crutch NyQuil was for me until I dreamed about taking it...)

You suffering on the couch/bed all weekend long with a killer headache and the inability to get comfortable because you only have 8 weeks left until your due date... which means that baby boy is taking up a lot more real-estate these days so despite wanting to curl up you can't because he kicks acid bile up your throat if you lay on your side... and your stomach is off limits for obvious reasons so your stuck in one position... all day... and all night...

And speaking of your baby... you freak out when he hasn't moved for a while  because you think your illness has done him in so your husband pokes and prods at you trying to get him to wake up and kick you so you feel better... and when that doesn't work you drink tons of water hoping that by providing him with a swimming pool he'll move around enough to reassure you.... which really only causes you to get up and pee a gazillion times.

You can't get comfortable in the tub while you try and relax because you wish the tub was just 2 feet taller so you could but in more water and just sit and float in there and be comfortable for a moment... but instead you just sit there feeling fat with the shampoo cup you bought for your baby that you already use just so you can pour water on yourself because that's the only way to kind of take a bath when pregnant...

and you worry about worrying your husband who has googled what to do when pregnant and sick a ton of times... because he feels all he can do is bring you tissues and water because if you don't have a fever, you basically need to flush it out with fluids...

Yup... That's how I spent Superbowl Sunday... we didn't turn on the game or the commercials once.
