the forgotten but probably most frequently asked FAQ...

My brain has gone dull these days. I swear I forget things far more often than I should. Hmmmm... So of course, I would forget the question I get asked most:

How are you feeling?

Quite good actually, and I have been blessed to feel quite good throughout. I must have inherited my mom's genes when it came to morning sickness because I didn't have much of any. My worst two weeks in terms of my stomach and energy were Christmas and New Year's weeks. I didn't have much of an appetite, and my stomach was queasy, but I never threw up and was able to keep the signs pretty well hidden. Nobody at my in-laws suspected anything--even though I had to be acting in a somewhat uncharacteristic manner.

By the time I returned to school the next week, I was feeling pretty much 100% although finding ways to sneak a couple of snacks during my morning schedule. But again, nobody was suspicious. I am glad to be through that first trimester though and to have any residual stomach weirdness pretty much over with.
