Expecting... the Unexpected

Last Wednesday I was besieged by a stomach virus nasty enough to land me in the emergency room, and at the end of my Phenergan/saline cocktail when the on-call doctor came in, I was still groggy until I heard him say the words,
"So, now, are you *supposed* to be pregnant?"

Oh my goodness, oh my gOOdneSs, OH MY GOODNESS!! A hearty congratulations. I'm so glad it was pregnancy and not a tape worm, or another such emergency, cause that wouldn't have been very fun. Much love to you guys - we miss you and think of you often. Smiles and a celebratory danCe, beCcA & traCe

Kristen - as I told the doctor after a moment of awed silence: "Evidently I am."

Becca - yeah, it gets tough choosing the right size baby clothes for tapeworms, with that whole no-appendages thing working against you... so this works out much better. :)
Much love to you and Trace.

so was it really a stomach virus, then? cause with my pregnancies, we called that "morning sickness."

(in case you may not remember me, an old friend of the thames and lgbc and the rudds as well, through whom i have your awesome blogsite).

CONGRATS! i dreamed last night I was pregant. it must have been you i meant!

Kristen - although morning sickness has already found me (a full month earlier than it did last time :P ), it was indeed a stomach virus. Either that, or my two year old son and four members of the family I stayed with last week are all pregnant too...

Lauren - yes, of course I remember you! Amusingly, when I was reading your note on the previous entry, I read your blog address and found myself musing aloud (a la Homer Simpson) "Mmm, pickles and cake..."
