Tough

I never expected expectancy to be tough-going. Going through mild symptoms are already taking its toll. I wonder how the others who had it tougher survived it.

It made me think twice about the evidences I had gathered from being my own obstetrician to date. With limited tools and knowledge, I had no way of establishing another possible fact: that I could possibly be ill rather than expecting. Hence I have to stick to my own diagnosis till further confirmation by the real guy this coming Saturday.

Everyone says it's the norm, it's like that, it'll go away after a while. This piece of information is being fed from all over, from moms-already-be to moms-to-be to moms-never-to-be to the mommy-fied bits and pieces all over the internet. It surely is easy to comprehend but more than a major feat to stay positive about it.

I have less than a woman's strength now to battle it. But thanks be to the Lord and the Supportive Spouse for holding me up.
