As most of you probably know, I'm a googler. And with the pregnancy, I have been googling a lot. Sometimes I find really good information and other times I read things that make me start to worry.
I didn't experience morning sickness with this pregnancy and instead of being thankful and not worrying about it, I was concerned in the back of my mind that something might be wrong. It's not everyday that someone is worried because they're NOT throwing up. Sounds silly, right? Well as I did some research online I started to read about some reasons why some women didn't have symptoms and of course I was turning up some really awful reasons. I had to just stop looking and wondering and just get over it and be thankful that I didn't have to deal with morning sickness this go-round.
Google can be a great resource like it was for our finding and buying a great stroller, but it can also be the source of unnecessary worry when you dig too much. The big takeaway I learned from all of my googling during this pregnancy is to not worry and just give it to God. Let go and let God. In the end, Google is my friend and I won't let it be my enemy or frenemy.
When in doubt, call me! (And dont google medical questions, but it's a really good resource when you want to eat something but dont know if you can while pregnant. I STILL look foods and meds up on there all the time). Otherwise Ive read all the info and can field you through the scary stuff and just tell you what your symptoms (or lack there of) probably mean ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I know, Google can be so upsetting. So much better to ask your doctor those big, researchy questions.....and ultimately, let go and let God. I'm so happy for you, my friend!
