What a huge 24 hours!

Oh my gosh don't quite know where to start so please forgive my ramblings.

After a massive week at work i felt exhausted yesterday. 30 three and four year olds each day at preschool has just worn me out. So this week has gone very fast for me. I have literally had not much of a life other than work and bed.  So focussing on the fact that my blood test was looming today really only played on my mind when i went to the toilet and checked my nickers.

 Until last night when the cramps in my tummy intensified. I tucked myself up in bed at 8.30 totally exhausted. Until 10.15 when i woke with the urgent need to vomit. Not an easy task because my toilet is outside. So began my night filled with numerous trips to the toilet to vomit.

Here is a question "what is worse than having to run to an outside toilet to vomit"?
a) you don't run fast enough and vomit on your sock and the toilet floor and while you have your head in the toilet the cat is licking up the vomit?
b) your trip over the dog who thinks you running to the toilet at 3 in the morning is a game?
c) your husband who has been out all night fishing is gutting his catch outside the front door at 3.30am when you are on yet another run to the toilet and proceeds to tell you "fish for tea tomorrow"?

The answer ALL OF THE ABOVE

After my bonding with the toilet i then had to drive to work (60kms) till my replacement came in. I then went for my blood test:

BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  HCG 258
So what i thought was gastro could now possibly be morning sickness?

I'm so happy that after what was an  awfully long night this day has started off so well, and now i'm going to rub my tummy and catch up on some much needed sleep.
