pregnancy can be weird

This pregnancy has really been unlike any pregnancy that I have EVER had.  Granted, I've only had 3 other ones.  So, my experience is quite limited.  I was pretty sick in the beginning up until almost 20 weeks.  "Morning sickness" didn't last all day long nor was it just in the morning.  Some days I would feel sick in the morning, others in the afternoon, and then still others I would just feel awful at the end of the day.  I have been pretty exhausted during this pregnancy too.  I'm grateful that my first two children (daughters) gave me all the stretch marks I seem to need - however, these last two pregnancies (my son and the current baby I am carrying) seem to want to damage my veins in this 9 month long process.  My son I'm not extremely mad at, since the vein damage was minimal.  This child, (claimed to be a girl), however is doing a number on me.  The worst part?  I still have 11.5 weeks left! That is WAY too much time for more damage to occur.  I must say no matter what gender ends up being delivered from this maimed 20 something year old body of mine, there are FANTASTIC names picked out for him/her.  DESPITE THE FACT I WISH I COULD GIVE IT SOME AWFUL MIDDLE NAME - maybe I could give them a second middle name that is truly awful?   Whatever this baby ends up being, it'll have one great name for sure.  Oh, and this baby has been SO active this pregnancy.  I can only slightly compare it to the amount of movement I felt with #2 (Julia).  Lately, I am still tired and really don't feel motivated to eat much.  It is really a strange feeling.  What pregnant lady wouldn't be thrilled about food?  Yah, I know.  This pregnant lady can only get slightly excited about some fruit.  I know the salad hanging out in the fridge should get consumed before it goes bad, along with the leftovers..... but I am really not motivated.  I just want to lay down and sleep - for like..... a week!  Then maybe get up and have a smoothie, followed by some fruit salad, maybe a snack of watermelon, and finish off the day with more fruit salad.  How I love fruit salad!  Oh, and the heartburn I get from eating ANYTHING other than fruit is awful!  That's enough to keep a lady away from the table for sure.

As a HUGE side note though, I am kinda hoping that this desire to only eat fruit and not go after the really bad stuff for my body..... is going to keep my weight gain LOW.  So far I have gained 15 lbs and I am trying to fight that dial from moving up too much higher.  For the next 11 weeks (hopefully less) I will be keeping my fingers crossed!!
