I think I can safely say I now have pregnancy symptoms. The first is the fact that my sleeping has been weird. Usually if I take a nap, I can still sleep at night. Now, wether or not I've napped, it seems like it takes me forever to fall asleep. A night or two ago, I was up until past three in the morning trying to fall asleep. Then when I do fall asleep... I wake up a million times. Nathan can tell ya... usually the second my head hits the pillow, I'm out. Another new thing is waking up during the night to go to the bathroom. I never, ever have to wake up during the night to go. It is now becoming a regular occurrence. And the last symptom so far is heartburn. Our friend Briana is visiting and staying with us, so we went out for Mexican tonight. I had the usual chips and salsa (I know chips aren't so good for baby!) a bean burrito, and some guacamole. Mexican doesn't usually bother me, but tonight... not so cool. I think I'll be passing on the Mexican for a while.
And my friend, Linda, surprised me with a little gift, the book Your Pregnancy Week By Week. I'm really enjoying reading ahead a little bit. Plus, they have actual size pictures of the baby at each week which is easier than trying to imagine it the size of a pea. I'm still feeling well and praying 'morning sickness' passes me by.
Again, I have two quick prayer requests. My great Aunt Kate (who was in her late 60s or early 70s) passed away yesterday after battling illness for a while. She seemed to pass peacefully, but my great Uncle and his family will need prayer as they try to resume life without her after spending so many years taking care of her. Also, I have a friend who has a potential job opportunity, which could be a great situation for her and her family, but also a job opportunity for me. We are praying for God's guidance and will in this matter.
