Today's fascinating new symptom: weepiness.

I cried on Saturday in response to two stressful situations, and thought at the time that I seemed to be more emotionally volatile than usual. But it's only 10:17am, and already tears have come to my eyes twice: for a baby hippo I saw on TV while I was eating my breakfast, and for a sentimental Hallmark card I saw while picking out a "Get Well" card for my sister. No, really. Got to love those hormonal surges.

Also: at the moment I have completely lost my taste for alcohol, black tea, and sweets. (Not that I've tried alcohol, obviously, but it seems unappealing when I think about it.) I have retrospectively decided that I might as well give up caffeine for the first trimester. I thought quitting would be too hard to justify the very sketchy evidence for fetal benefit, but I don't miss tea at all.

Unfortunately, I have not developed the kind of abnormal craving that would induce me to want four servings of high-calcium foods a day.

Has Michael started crying yet? When he bawls at a Hallmark commercial, you'll know you're in full swing.
