Ditto on sciatica, especially with #3. Thank God for the chiropractor.

Cravings: milkshakes. Not ice cream, not milk with anything else, but milkshakes. And with numbers 2 and 3, salty things.

I usually don't eat a lot of salty stuff, and I don't add salt to things when I cook. But my blood pressure drops when I'm pregnant, and that seems to be what triggers MAJOR salt cravings. Pickles, pretzels, popcorn, potato chips -- I didn't care much, as long as it was salty.


Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
