listening to: ABC AM Radio
Vinyl classics such as -
Arrival, ABBA (includes "Fernando" and "Dancing Queen" and many more);
Tapestry, Carole King ("I feel the earth move", "A Natural Woman", and "It's too late");
Paul Mauriat's freaky moog 70's dinner/elevator music with interestingly (read: barely) clad chick on cover, and orchestrated versions of "Mrs Robinson", "Penny Lane" and "Lara's theme" from Dr Zhivago.... this is the result of my parents being in a record club in the 70's
eating: whatever I can stomach, whenever I can stomach it
feeling: nauseous, hungry, hunger tinged with nausea, nausea tinged with hunger, occasionally very tired, occasionally very emotional (can't handle anyone dying or breaking up on television), and a little bit like I'm keeping a naughty secret.
-------------------
Food is one of the things I love. How wierd to be ambivalent about it now? Now it's like - is the coast clear? Right, eat..... now! b.t.w. - secret to subduing morning sickness seems to be grabbing a little something dry to eat (nuts, crackers) before you feel sick. Strangely, I have been waking between 3-4 every morning sans alarm, stuffing a couple of almonds in my mouth even though not hungry and going back to sleep. Seems to be working most days.
I have been fond of the idea of Udon noodle soup, avocados with salt and pepper, mature cheese and hard boiled eggs lately. Most foods seem like a good idea, but when they are in front of me, my enthusiasm wanes drastically. Appetite also smaller. Very strange thing to go through.

hello there
I only saw that you were writing about the er, incubation period a couple of days ago, I wrote a sympathetic comment about being sick in terribly inconvenient circumstances, but it didn't publish.
To keep it brief, my recent adventures including urgent dashes to many loos in forgein countries put me off my food also. Oh yes indeedy, that starts to hurt after a while. Keep your chin up chick and keep blogging, its cool.
