Things I miss

I've given up caffeine, sugar, sushi, deli meat, and hotdogs. I'm getting back pain, cramps, and swollen tender boobs. Yet the thing I miss the most is being regular. For as far back as I can remember I've always been a once a day BM kind of girl. There has been an occasional constipation or diarrhea, but for the most part, once a day, every day. Yet for the last 2 weeks, I have been switching back and forth between being constipated or having diarrhea. The constipation part has been explained, the baby is absorbing all the water and nutrient so my waste is more solid. But the diarrhea? I have no idea why. So now in addition to the bottle of prenatal vitamins at my desk, I have a container of prunes, a hot water bottle for the cramps, and crackers for my hunger. My desk is beginning to look like the inside of my grandma's purse. Except she has more bottles of drugs.
