Pregnancy: Week 9

 The debut of the baby bump! :)

Hi Everyone!

I'm 10 weeks pregnant today! Yay!

A little about Week 9:

  • Week 9 was an extremely emotional week, as it's the week when I miscarried my last pregnancy (although we didn't find out until 11 weeks). Lots and lots of fear. Now that Week 9 is over, I am feeling so much better.
  • Nausea (still really bad), check. Everything smells like crazy, check. Belly's getting bigger, check. Boobs are big and sore, check. Not sleeping great, check.
  • I've been getting up to pee like 5 times a night. Annoying.
  • I had my first must-have-this-food-immediately-send-husband-to-the-grocery-store-late-at-night craving. What I wanted: Lemonheads.
  • I got weaned completely off the fertility drugs this past week. One final lab check tomorrow to make sure everything's OK. So exciting!
  • I'm pretty much 100% in maternity clothes at this point...ahhhh...so comfortable! I just got basic jeans-and-tank-tops kind of stuff (really appreciating the fact I work from home...nice not to have to worry about dressy, work-appropriate clothes). I also got a bunch of $3 non-maternity sweaters at Goodwill...this way I won't care if they get stretched out. And, how psyched am I that ponchos are in style right now? They seem like they'll be perfect.

Ultrasound and bloodwork tomorrow...will keep you all posted!

XOXO
