So by now you've heard that Princess Kate is expecting a baby but is being hospitalized for hyperemesis gravidarum. I gotta say-it made me really like her! I don't know what it is but something about Kate puking her guts out gives me the warm fuzzies. Maybe it's because she's found her (literal) prince charming and I attract toads that turn into nightmares. Or maybe its because I'm sick in the head. :) But I do feel incredibly sorry for her. Not one day went by while I was pregnant that I can't remember not vomiting at least 2 or 3 times a day. To this day I still think I consumed more gatorade than an athlete does in an entire season. And hyperemesis gravidarum is way worse than what I went through. It's nature's cruel and unusual punishment to women already faced with hormonal imbalances, pain in all the wrong places, and cankles. It's not something I would wish on my worse enemy and I certainly wouldn't wish it on this girl who can't change clothes without causing an international shopping spree. So despite my joyful glee at her misery, I wish her and Prince William a safe, happy pregnancy and I hope she gets well soon.
And P.S. Kate-I'll love you more if you go #teammidwife! The UK has some fabulous midwives!
