Pregnancy: Week 10
I think the bump's about the same size as last week. It's weird, my belly feels so much bigger than it looks...
Happy Monday, Everyone!
I'm 11 weeks pregnant today! Yay! Here's how the past week has been:
- The nausea is still awful. Worse, if anything. This is going to get better soon, right?
- Super exhausted, too
- And headaches. Tylenol takes care of them, but trying to minimize my Tylenol usage
- Sore boobs that seem to be growing, and my belly feels like it's getting bigger every day
- My fear of miscarriage has pretty much gone away, thank goodness. So grateful for that
- Super emotional this past week...cry at pretty much anything, happy or sad
- Feeling a little sad that I am not liking being pregnant more than I am. I always thought that when I was pregnant I would love it, but it pretty much feels like a bad hangover 24/7, and I am not feeling the pregnancy bliss like I want to AT ALL. I keep telling myself the goal is (and always has been) children, not pregnancy in and of itself, so it's OK if I don't love with a capital L pregnancy. I don't know, I'm hoping in the second trimester those blissful feelings will kick in. And even though I'm not loving being pregnant, I am sooooo unreservedly thrilled about and grateful for the babies. So glad this is happening. Happy, so happy, to bear it, just wish I was ENJOYING it, you know? I feel bad saying this, but it's the truth, so...
Hope everyone has a lovely week!
