The past few weeks have been interesting for me. It is definitely a change being pregnant. I actually have felt ok, just pretty tired and exercise is more challenging, but I'm trying to do at least a half hour a day of something (mainly walking or dance central). I haven't been really sick and felt just fine. That is, until a few days ago. I have some nausea, not too bad, no throwing up just an unsettle stomach. It seems like its either that or hunger. I get soo hungry now! It doesn't come on gradually either! It's like I always need something in my stomach.
Anyway, other than that, I've been doing a lot of research about pregnancy online. I came across this really cool article. In the Netherlands, there is this organization called Mothers for Mothers that collects urine from pregnant women to extract the HCG to use in a drug called Pregnyl. This drug is used in fertility treatments for women who have problems with infertility. It helps to lower the cost of fertility treatments. How cool is that? I love that someone came up with this idea because anyone that has gone through fertility treatments know how expensive it is. I would totally do this. I'm peeing all the time anyway, might as well put it to good use. Anyway, I think that is so awesome! We should definitely do this in the U.S.!
