I have expensive taste. My friends know that. My family knows that. My husband knew that before our first date. I'm not ridiculous with my taste. For example, I probably won't spend more than $300 on a pair of shoes, despite how much I want to own a pair of Louboutins. Actually, let me correct that - I probably won't spend more than $100 on a pair of shoes

No soda for Yoda.
I decided to have a Sprite today with my lunch and boy was that a bad idea. It was way too sweet for me. Like, I'm not even sure I finished a quarter of it. I even took a picture of it:
No more soda for Yoda. I swear this kid is making me healthier already.
In interesting news, I had a follow-up phone conversation with Dr. Davis.

Those are the respective times I kept getting up last night to go pee. I finally went to sleep around 7:45 and had two and a half hour nap. I'm still tired, actually. I'm finally eating breakfast when I should be getting ready for lunch. Oh hell, my clock is totally off now.
Last night, I couldn't quite
Today, I went to my family practitioner to confirm the pregnancy. I didn't want to go for a number of reasons. One, I didn't want to pay for an expensive pregnancy test (more on that in a bit). And two, probably the most important reason, I didn't want news that would upset me such as 'Um, you're not pregnant.'
Let me explain the second one.
With my first pregnancy, we discovered I
There's one thing about pregnancy I don't understand. The nausea. How is that I'm okay before I eat but right after I eat, I feel like
Thank goodness for these:
I got these at Whole Foods. They're pretty good. They don't taste any different from regular saltine crackers. They're also so cute! They come in different shapes!
So I can no longer sleep on my stomach. I never knew how much I
Today, Yoda is five weeks gestation! I'm officially in the second month of pregnancy. Woo-hoo! Let's see Yoda' s progress:

My food aversion to vegan ice cream is replaced with a healthy, almost insane appetite for bacon. Not the healthy, fat-free turkey bacon I always eat. No. I want the pork. A lot of it. All of it. Just bring me a wheelbarrow full of bacon and I'll love you forever.

It just occurred to me that when I set up this blog, I didn't allow comments. So for everyone who tried to leave a comment but couldn't, I apologize. You can do so now.
So today I had my first food aversion. Something that I previously enjoyed to my heart's content and well, not for a long while. Well, at least not until December.

Yes, you read that right.
I love doing the pregnancy comparisons per week. It's neat to see a photo to see what my little Yoda looks like. Yes, I named my little bean 'Yoda'. It just fits.
