Hi Jen, found your blog yesterday and read every. single. word. You are laugh-out-loud hilarious and I wish to congratulate you and yours on the pregnancy! Unsolicited advice: The only thing that helped me with the pregnancy sick was sucking on a lifesaver. And lounging with my dogs. Dogs have tremendous healing properties, as I'm sure you know.
Good luck with everything! I'll be reading (

I eat food with bodies head first and from behind--so it's quick and painless and they don't see it coming. Then I work on the rest of their corpse. My kitchen used to be death row for EL Fudge elves until I looked on the back of the bag and saw each little man I killed was 90 calories. What the hell?!? Damn you fudgy elves!

I hope you appointment goes really well today! Check your

2008-07-17T09:22:00.000-04:00

My morning sickness peaked at about 7 and a half weeks and then settled into bouts of nausea just like yours.

With bleeding and stress and everything else, I hit 13 weeks today and was rewarded with a strong heartbeat and the confirmation of flutters.

Make sure you eat two. One for each cheek. And if you feel like it eat one for me. mmmmm..cupcakes.

2008-07-17T09:09:00.000-04:00

Hey girly, you're perfectly normal in your crazyness about the changes in symptoms. I LOVE morning sickness. My family thinks I'm completely mental, but on the days I don't feel as nauseous, I freak.

Just RELAX, right? Isn't that the magic cure for everything.

I read your post on Redbook re: your GYN, and I have to say that if I were you I'd find someone else. That office

2008-07-17T08:55:00.000-04:00

Great. Thanks. That family-sized bag of gummy bears in my cabinet suddenly looks less like a treat than a subtle form of torture. Or an orgy.

2008-07-17T08:48:00.000-04:00

OK, I am trying to eat healthy for IVF and now all I can think about is cupcakes and unfortunately it's the ones you eat, not the cute little one growing in your ute, just so we are straight.

Good luck on your ultrasound, I am sure your wee one is just perfect!

2008-07-17T01:01:00.000-04:00

I eat my gummy bears the same way, except the orange ones - those go to the dogs. (:

Good luck tomorrow. I hope your cupcake looks great!!

Good luck with the appointment. Glad you are feeling better. Hope to see you on Saturday! I promise no animal shaped food!! ;)

I stuff as many in my mouth as I can at once and savor the mix of berry-licious gummy flavors.

Don't go praying mantis on your young. Or would that be if you ate your husband? Cannibalism is not the answer!

Good luck tomorrow. I'm sure everything will be great!

2008-07-16T23:16:00.000-04:00

I also eat food shaped like animals piece by piece...as does my son. Apparently we're a bunch of weirdos!

mmm...cupcakes!

2008-07-16T21:49:00.000-04:00

All the food references were disturbing. Early on, I remember the sesame seed reference and lentil bean reference. I thought it was really strange because it made you size up everything you ate.

I eat chocolate bunnies exactly as described. :-)

Good luck at your appt tomorrow!

2008-07-16T21:48:00.000-04:00

Ok so now I want cupcakes. With lots of frosting. Reading about food (especially sweets) does that too me. I also admit to the eating body parts of candy animals thing. Hope your OB appointment goes great and you get another look at your little one.

Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for blogging about your IF treatments. I'm about to embark on the Good Ship IVF now that I finally have the ok from my insurance company. I have my IVF consult tomorrow. I feel so much more informed (and entertained!) for having read your blog. I made up a list of questions to ask, and thanks to you I know what questions to ask. Much better than

2008-07-16T20:44:00.000-04:00

I was a wonderin' about the 2 headed gummy bears too. Thanks for clearing that up!

I just inhale them. Kinda dangerous really, but I'm like that. I live on the edge.

Have you ever been to Presti's on Mayfield? Oh. My. Gawd. It is fantastic. I think I had a chocolate raspberry mousse, and then sampled Mr. PJ's and my sister in law's goods. Just, yum!

2008-07-16T20:28:00.000-04:00

It takes amazing self discipline to eat gummy bears like that.... I eat whole... 2 at a time.

Good luck at your first OB visit tomorrow - sending you tons of good vibes!

I eat the head in two bites (one ear at a time).

2008-07-16T19:40:00.000-04:00

Hmmmm. I'm just wondering where you got two headed gummy bears???

Glad your all day sickness has improved and good luck at your first regular old OB appointment!

2008-07-16T19:23:00.000-04:00

Thank God you didn't post actual cupcake pictures. I'm starving hungry and would probably have attempted to consume the monitor screen with gusto.

I found the sickness came and went from day to day; try not to worry too much. And I have fingers tightly crossed that you see comforting, wonderful things on the screen tomorrow. Although, given your current cannibalistic mind-buggery,
