Pregnancy Feels Like.....

the flu. No kidding. As a first time mother to be, the only thing that I can compare pregnancy to using my experience is the flu.
The all day daily fatigue, the nausea, the gastrointestinal disturbances in the form of gas and diarrhea, the bad tastes in the mouth, the aversion to anything that has anything to do with food. To me, that all adds up to the flu. Of course pregnancy lacks some of the other tale tale signs of the flu such as aches and pains and fever, but it pretty much mirrors it in every other way. Funny, but I've never heard the two compared to eachother. I know every woman is different, but you would think out of all the women I have ever known that experienced pregnancy, ONE of them would've told me I would probably feel like I had some type of flu. Hmmmm.

In other news, I ordered a doppler today. I'm excited because if it works it will set my worry wort mind at ease. I'm nervous because if it doesn't work, I might cause unnecessary stress on myself. I've heard good things about this kind of doppler, so hopefully it will work for me.
