The trouble with my pregnancies

is that by the time I feel comfortable telling people, I'm so darn sick. So then when people tell me congratulations, I wonder why they could possibly think that having a massive stomach flu is a good thing.

Stomach flu so far: 3 and a half weeks.

If past pregnancies are any indication I have 16 1/2 weeks of stomach flu to go.

And if we can survive that, then there are only 14 more weeks until we add another child to our family around May 18th.

I'm sure I'd be more excited if it weren't for the flu thing.
