My boss (he came into the office for yesterday even though he’s on holidays) asked me if I’d be interested in going to a golf tournament tomorrow. Considering I haven’t golfed in 4 years, I am hoping someone else will be able to go instead. I really don’t want to go since it would be a long day (it’s 3 hours away) and I am just not up to traveling that far, especially since I don’t golf. I think I would just make a fool of myself! Not to mention I have NO energy and can’t stand up for too long without feeling faint. But I didn’t tell him that part.
I have been feeling pretty crummy in the last few days (more so than usual). But as long as I’m feeling queasy, I know the baby is doing okay! Because if something was wrong, my hormone levels would drop and then I would start feeling better. So, as long as I feel queasy, I’m happy! Which is a very strange thing to say!
Exactly 3 weeks now until I reach the second trimester (which officially starts at 13 weeks, 3 days). I actually reach that milestone on my dad’s birthday (July 31st), which is neat. More reason to celebrate! We’ll use that as our official “start telling people” date. Unless we hear the heartbeat at the appointment on the 25th, in which case we could start telling people then.
CT has a friend who just got engaged a few weeks ago and he asked CT for his address because he’s getting married September 13th! That’s quick! Two months isn’t a lot of time to pull together a wedding, but I guess it can be done. Good thing we’re free that weekend because we don’t have a lot of free weekends in the next few months!
I’m glad it’s already Thursday. I have been pretty tired this week, so I am looking forward to the weekend. This weekend, I am going to the cottage with my family. CT is not coming this time since he has a baseball tournament on Saturday. Looks like the weather should be decent, so I envision lots of time outside and swimming in the lake ;)
EDIT 10:31pm
One of my co-workers is going to go to the golf tournament tomorrow, so I am officially off the hook. Thank goodness! I am quite relieved since I don't think I would have been able to handle it given the way I have been feeling this week. What a relief!

Sorry you're not feeling so well, but glad that you're happy about it! LOL
Good thing about the golf tourney. It's supposed to be hot again tomorrow. Not the best for queasy stomachs.
That's not good that you're feeling faint when standing for too long. :( Hmmm... hopefully it's just low blood-sugar (and easy fix!), otherwise I know that having low bloodpressure is quite common with pregnancy - my sister had it and fainted a couple times. Hopefully it passes for you!
My blood pressure was 118/78 a couple weeks ago, which is normal.
And the feeling faint thing only happens sometimes, when I stand in the same place for too long. I'm okay walking around. Prime example: CT's aunt and uncles house a while ago when we were saying goodbye to his grandparents. We were standing in a very warm sunroom and I was starting to feel very queasy and faint. I had to get out of there!
And sometimes I feel faint in the shower, but that's because I shower first thing in the morning, so no food in my system yet. I try to have a few crackers before I get out of bed in the morning and that helps.
So, I'm quite sure it's a low blood sugar problem, which I have had in the past. That's why I eat many snacks throughout the day!
