Okay so back to how my body and brain no longer belonged to me. I remember on Feb. 14 commenting to AT that this pregnancy was going so well, I didn't have morning sickness, I was eating well, that this whole thing would be a piece of cake. I WAS SO WRONG.
The next day, it all hit me. I was praying to the porcelain god bright and early that morning. Luckily, during my 1st trimester I only puked a total of 3x. But boy, was I nauseaus, dizzy, sleepy, tired, moody, hungry for the next several weeks.
At first there was a pattern to this madness. I would only be sick and tired when 2pm rolled around so I adjusted my work schedule so that I could leave before 3pm. No big deal. However, this pattern went away after a week or so. All bets were off at that point. I would be hit with nausea at 6am, dizziness around 11pm, sleepiness around noon, back to nausea at 5pm, dizziness at 6pm and so forth. It was definitely a roller coaster ride.
As far as food was concern, I was not concerned about food. The only thing I wanted were TANGERINES!! I think I ate about 40 tangerines in less than two weeks. My mom and aunts were constantly sending tangerines my way. This incessant craving for tangerines went away though when March came which is a good thing or else our baby might have turned out a bright shade of orange!
