A little worse for the wear

By kate on July 21st, 2005

Thanks to a stressful week at work and the pregnancy kicking in a bit more, I’ve started to feel traces of nausea. It’s really not that bad, though, compared to what I hear other people have had. Mostly, it feels like it used to when I would read in the car.

(In a side note, reading in the car used to give me kind of a headache/nausea, although not the kind that makes me feel like vomiting. I was somehow able to get over it while we were on our big backpacking trip, probably out of necessity and looooong bus rides. Now, I can read in vehicles with no problem.)

It comes and goes, but doesn’t really make too much of an impact. It makes me do things like rest my eyes more, or lay down for a few minutes when I get home.

I’ve also noticed my appetite is getting slightly more funky. I still don’t really feel like eating much – not like NOT eating, just not particularly tempted. Now, though, I’ve found I sometimes do or don’t feel like what I’m planning to eat for a meal. It’s minor, though, and I can force my way through it. On the other hand, I’ve been giving myself a fair amount of leeway since I’m PREGNANT after all.
