Dunno What to Say…
Today I feel better than each day before. I am still gagging on drainage from that killer flu before (though I’m told I’ll probably not kick it because congestions is a common pregnancy thing…) and needing to pee about 4 times a night. However, I’m much less bloated, less gas pain, more energy, and less […]
1st Trimester Confusion
So last night and this morning I was worrying a bit because my symptoms seemed to have dissappeared. No nausea, no upset tummy, some gas (but after all the pizza I ate last night that made perfect sense), even my top is more content. So… I woke up and started researching when symptoms go away. […]
Happy Easter!

It’s amazing – and annoying. Yesterday, […]
The First Prenatal Visit
I had my first prenatal appointment this morning. James came with me and thank goodness. I think all of the good news, bad news, good news, bad news, good news has worn on me. I was looking forward to this appointment until this morning. Then the fear kicked in. Luckily, James was just in time […]
Baby Names – Updated
Ok, the updated list is here… Comment, please! GIRL NAMES Anabelle Claire Becwar (Grace-Favour/Clear-Bright) Both names are pretty common – but I like them a lot, so they stay… Claire is the name of a great friend of mine here in Fairbanks. Liesel Marie Becwar (My God is a vow/Bitter) Liesel isn’t common at all, Marie was popular in 1900 Liesel […]
