What I realized is that even if pregancy tests were getting darker like I wanted, that&#8217;s no guarantee that I wouldn&#8217;t miscarry. And even if the line stays light, I could still have a perfectly normal pregnancy. Yeah, it would help me feel better for the moment. But I&#8217;m searching for a guarantee, and there just isn&#8217;t one. The sooner I can let that go, the better.<\/p>\n<p>But beyond that, my body is doing a damn good job of convincing me I am pregnant. I feel a little light-headed when I stand up after being sitting or laying down for a while. My abs feel tight, as if I&#8217;ve been working them (and, trust me, I haven&#8217;t). I have a light headache tonight, and did last night too. My boobs feel a little sore. And the big one? <i>I don&#8217;t want chocolate.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>When I arrived here at my parents we went shopping and I bought a bunch of Canadian chocolate &#8211; and proceeded to eat it all. This is typical for me. But I realized that over the past week I have gone from eating every chocolate in sight to not eating any of it. I bought a Coffee Crisp and an Aero, and both had one bite taken out of them and then were left sitting on the counter for days. Today I saw the Aero sitting there so I grabbed some just out of habit. I took a bite and&#8230; umm&#8230; yeah&#8230;. it kind of tasted like&#8230; mud. Or something. Just blah. Definitely not something delicious and craving-worthy.<\/p>\n<p>And the thing is, I hardly touched chocolate at all during my entire pregnancy with Devin. It&#8217;s not that it made me sick&#8230; it just tasted like crap. I hardly expected that very strange symptom to return for round two, but here we are. Guess that is one thing that is going to stay the same.<\/p>\n<p>This is the exciting part, for me &#8211; finding out how this pregnancy will unfold similar to and different from my first one. I&#8217;ve been looking forward to this for a very long year. As some of the initial fear quietens in the continued presence of undeniable symptoms, I feel more and more happy.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m pregnant, and it feels fucking wonderful.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v240\/lunarmagic\/Den\/DSC_1991.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have to say, right now I&#8217;m not all that concerned.
