Woes of pregnancy

My sister thinks I should post for posterity (and for family members not able to share in all the glory) all my pregnancy joys and, yes, woes.

Today is a woe. I HATE heartburn. It makes your throat literally burn. (i know, hence the name). I mean, i eat a cookie. ONE cookie and I sit in agony for an hour at least. Then I eat another cookie…they’re that good!

I made tomato sauce for tonight and I know that i will regret it since it has acid in it from the tomatoes and spiciness because that’s how i like my sauce. Sigh.

Also, they say not to sit if you’re pregnant in 1 position for more than 30 minutes for the circulation in your legs. I believe that would be a good thing to not do, but how can I help it when I have to get payroll finished??? So I get up to get a drink so that I’m not sitting for long periods of time (plus my legs do fall asleep) and then because I drank a thimbleful of liquid I have to pee. And then I walk back to the computer and I have to pee again.

I guess it is easy to not make yourself sit for more than 30 minutes. I’m lucky if sometimes I make it to 30.

Well I hope you meant you’re lucky if you make it to 30 minutes and not 30 years! :)

I have to say that pregnancy sounds just awful. Really. I have only heard one friend ever say that she actually enjoyed it. For the most part all I hear about is this kind of stuff and, let me tell you, it does not exactly make me want to run out and try it for myself anytime soon! Of course I can’t anyway b/c I’m not even in close proximity to being in the state from which one can have a baby, but still…

Maybe I’ll just adopt.
