After a recent midnight dash to the toilet Li asked me why I was sad. Hmmm....good question. Besides the obvious-I hate puking response, why was I sad?
Here's why...
I feel like the world should stop when I have to sprint to the bathroom. I mean, Li does a good job of bringing me water, rubbing my back and seeing if I need anything. Really, I am quite spoiled.
But doesn't it just seem like the WHOLE world should stop? Like news reporters and even the paparazzi should be banging down my door trying to be the first to catch the story of the incredibly selfless woman who is going through all of this trauma just so a new baby can be born?!
I think so.
I guess pregnancy really does prepare you for motherhood....I'm going to go sick the paps on my mommy.

boring post
Not boring. This is your life right now! You should be able to express how you feel! the world should definitely pay more respect to mothers and everything they go through for their children! Hope you start feeling better soon.
lol!! funny! i love reading your blogs!
Li made the boring post comment, not Jen.
oh, jen! no one has ever been more empathetic than I am for you right now! you ARE an incredibly selfless woman who is going to be an AMAZING mommy! I'm sorry I promised you nausea remedies and didn't follow through (can I use the lame excuse that I just had my baby 3 weeks ago?). I'll try to send you an email tonight. 40 weeks really is a long time, and I wish I could tell you all the hard stuff is over when those 40 weeks are up....but I CAN tell you it IS worth it! promise.
wait a minute... you're PREGNANT?!?!?! man, shows how much i pay attention to my friends! congratulations!!!
