In America's Dairyland

I am in Wisconsin on a 4-day business trip.

I made it here okay this afternoon and by that I mean without puking at the airport or the plane.  I was very nervous about that and will be the next few days while I take care of our company booth at a trade show.

The flight was later in the day so I was able to get all my sickness dealt with before I left.  Its actually become a bit worse the past week.  I keep telling myself that its a good sign.

Today I decided to just deal with the day in chunks at a time. Example, can I get to airport without being sick?  Okay, now can I make it through security, etc.  Before boarding I made a trip to the bathroom to make sure I would be okay on the plane. It made it a lot more doable.

I am getting the usual evening sickness now and waiting for the room service dinner to get there. I think I am just really hungry.

I "opted out" of going through the X-Ray machine and got a  pat down instead.  I did not see any point in subjecting the fetus to needless X-ray.  They were really polite and professional and explained it all very well and asked if I was okay getting it done right there or if I needed seclusion. I frankly did not care and did it right there. Everyone is so busy at security that its not like anyone even noticed.

Tomorrow will be interesting since I have to drive to the location early in the morning, so I need to ensure I have things in control before I get in the car. I will try and eat some breakfast before I leave. 

My colleague gets in tomorrow evening, so the whole booth set up and first day attendance is entirely on me. I plan to ask assistance from other vendors since I doubt I can set up a 6x6ft banner on my own. Its a two person job. There are always people willing to help a gal in distress. I will try and look pathetic.

It will be a long day 12+ hours.  But I have got snacks and apples and cheerios, etc so I can keep snacking and if I need to step away I shall. I normally need to close my eyes for 10-15 min if I am to make it through the day.  Hoping, like today, the activity will pose a good distraction and will help.

Today as we took off I realized that it was Beanie's first flight in utero - its was a nice feeling.

My next U/S is on Friday......so shall know more then.  Luckily, I am so busy the next few days that I have no time to really think about anything other than getting through each day.
