I'm already 7 weeks!!!

"Week 7: Your baby-to-be is the size of a small bean, measuring approximately 9 to 11 millimeters crown to rump. While this tiny body is busy making all sorts of changes, you won't feel any activity inside your belly -- just yet."

Oh contraire, mon frere. I'm feeling all kinds of crazy in my belly. Well, okay not the baby kicking or whatever, but I tell ya I've had some serious morning sickness! So far, I've only literally thrown up once. In my mind though, I've thrown up a dozen times - a day. Becky suggested Sea Bands, which is an acupressure type of deal. Tim picked me up a pair today, so I'll see if this helps any. I am just going to have to wear long sleeves for a while, as I am not gonna tell anyone at work any time soon.

This morning, I had to sit through the world's most excruciatingly frustrating staff meeting, all the while feeling like I could just puke on my neighbor. That was REAL fun. And everyone was kind of bunched in tightly, so there was no escape route or anything. I was pretty worried that it was going to be a disaster. Luckily, I grabbed a bottle of water prior to the meeting and I tried to find an inner happy place! I really hope I won't have to sit through anything so painful again for a while. Wow.

But other than the general queasiness (all the time, not just in the "morning"), I'm doing fine. This weekend, Tim and I are taking a little road trip with some friends up to Quebec City. It will be about an 8 or 9 hour drive. I'm really wondering how I'm gonna fare in the car that long. And then, we are even sharing a hotel room. So yeah, our friends Emily and Brandon are probably gonna know about my pregnancy before the weekend is through! Otherwise, they are gonna think I have some real issues.
