Doing Better

Hello World.  I just thought I should update and let everyone know that I am doing better. A LOT better.  I had a few really rough weeks, but thanks to all my great friends, family, and neighbors, I got through it.
My doctor put me back on my antidepressant (Zoloft), after he and I discussed the pros and cons and decided the benefits far outweigh the risks for me and my baby.  And now I feel like myself again.  Depression is a hard thing to understand if you've never experienced it.  I won't try to explain it here in this post.  Maybe someday I will blog in depth about my experiences with depression.  But not now.
I'm eleven weeks along in my pregnancy now, and the nausea if waning.  Instead of being SO SICK all day, every day, I now get nauseated for only a couple of hours each day.  And that's doable.
I cannot THANK YOU all enough for all the love, support, and help I've received over the past few weeks. It has been overwhelming and very humbling!  I have great visions of writing a personal thank you note to each of you, but not sure that will happen, so I'll at least say it here: THANK YOU!
