Things on my mind :)
Lately as I have been training a new person to do the paperwork when I go back home and starting to prepare to go I have been thinking a lot about teaching. I am very excited, but it has been quite a while since I have actually taught students so I am wondering if I will remember how. I know this seems silly, but I guess the weight of having all of those students depending on me to teach them and assess what they have learned properly is settling in. I just want the school year to start off on a good note. I think I am a little concerned because I still have a lot to do before school starts and I have a lot of meetings the week before. I probably should have gone back earlier, but I did not want to leave Mr. Muscles or be away for longer than I absolutely had to. Regardless of all of this, I am really excited to get back and finish things up so I can start teaching and meet my students. Another thing I thought of today (if anyone has input, I would love to hear it) is this Sunday is Fast Sunday, but I don't know if you are supposed to Fast when you are pregnant. Lately eating random snacks and drinking juice is the only thing that keeps the nausea away so I am kind of concerned about not eating. I am sure it is a personal decision, but I am just wondering how you all feel about it. :) I hope all is well with everyone.

You'll do fine with your new class.
As for the other question, no you shouldn't fast while you are pregnant, or nursing either for that matter. But it's about the spirit of the fast, so you can still "participate". Just don't have a full out breakfast, just do enough to hold you over, a piece of toast or something. And don't have your "fast" be as long as you normally would, whether that is 12 hours or 24.
Thanks Erin! Both for the vote of confidence and for the advice.
I think being nervous and worried about being a good teacher shows you will be a great teacher cause you have your student learning always at the top of the list! As for fasting I never could, it would just make me sick. most of the time i had crackers with me in a bag. I agree with erin, keep it simple, only what you need and Heavnly Father will understand. I wish you the best with the whole nausea thing it is something i wouldn't wish on anybody but the prize you get at the end is more then you could ever hope for!
