I'm still in a little bit of a state of disbelief, but I'm starting to believe that my "morning" sickness is not all in my head. My doctor and Mike seem very convinced that I'm not feeling ill because I'm eating crappy, but rather I'm eating crappy because I'm feeling so ill.
For the past ~5 weeks or so I've subsisted almost entirely on:
cheese pizza
mac&cheese
grilled cheese
cheese tortillas
crackers and cheese
Italian dunkers
cheese fries from Outback
Noticing a theme? I'm getting so tired of cheese and carbs, but absolutely nothing else sounds good! I'm really hoping that my prenatal vitamin is making up for the fact that I haven't had a vegetable (unless you count the sauce on my pizza) for weeks. Ugh.
All my pregnancy books tell me that my "morning" sickness should be at its peak about now (week 11) and starting to decrease. I know I'm going to worry once I don't have this symptom any more, but I'm also really looking forward to feeling human again! I'm starting to think that working as an eating disorders psychologist (where my clients all talk about food and puking all day long) is one of the worst possible jobs to have in the first trimester!
Thanks for letting me vent :)

At least your from Wisconsin, that makes eating all that cheese less weird, right?! Feel better soon and eat some veggies for your little bean!
