When I first found out that I was pregnant, I imagined that I would keep a daily diary/blog about the whole experience so that my baby would have something to read back on later. I also imagined that I would be this wonderfully happy pregnant lady who would spread joy to all those around her. Boy...was I ever wrong...
Being pregnant during residency is not only hard and draining on the energy and body, but also...hard and draining on the energy and body. I wanted to throw up day and night during the first 12 weeks and now that I'm in the 14th week, one would think that it'd be over, but in my case...I'm still throwing up, I'm still tired, and I'm still drained. When will all of this be over? I just want to be that happy pregnant lady soon. The only things that really help me through each day are knowing that the Lord Jesus is watching us and carrying us through every step of the way, having Eugene by my side holding me and hugging baby every chance he gets, and thinking about and imagining how baby is growing inside of me. I pray that the Lord will continue to guide us through the next 6 months and that He will also be the love of baby's life.
