things I’ve noticed at 12+3 weeks pregnant

yucky stuff first:

- smells are still evil. even the slightest bad smell makes me sick :(

- if I don’t eat, I feel sick, if I eat, I feel sick. it’s a never ending cycle 😭

- I can’t go in the kitchen without feeling sick :(

- back pain ouch

- round ligament pain has started and it’s AWFUL

now good stuff!! (cause this is a miracle after all)

- according to my app, baby has now moved out of my pelvis and into my tummy, and you can sort of see the bean sometimes!! bean is still tiny (lemon size) but he’s definitely there!! It’s especially noticeable on a night when I’m laid down and it’s so exciting!! I am at the awkward stage where I sort of feel like I just look really bloated all the time instead of pregnant though 😭

- my energy has came back a little! Some days I still wanna nap but I can survive without a nap most days now!!

- water isn’t as gross as it used to be :P

cravings

cucumber, toast!!, watermelon, mango, yoghurt, strawberry milk, pickles, crunchy peanut butter

I’m also craving a monster ultra paradise SOOOOOO bad 😭😭 I can’t wait to have one when baby is here!!

food aversions

anything with an orange sauce, soup, stuffed pasta, pesto, roasted veg, most meat except chicken, tbh anything that wasn’t on my craving list 💀

Truly hoping this new medication will start working soon. Yesterday I spent the whole day in bed only getting up to get my son food and put him down for a nap. I feel terrible, both physically and as a mother. I sure hope he can forgive his mum for just doing nothing yesterday. On top of general pregnancy exhaustion and sickness, it was horribly windy. Which mean my fibro just wasn’t having it. I couldn’t think, I couldn’t “wake up”, I couldn’t eat. Just a big pile of miserable mush in bed. Today is windy too but I was able to pry myself from my pillow long enough to choke down a bagel and some tea. And I’m at least sitting upright.

We’re almost 10w now, and the sickness typically gets better for most in a couple weeks. With the placenta starting to finally sustain itself and my body no longer having to run the hormones for both of us, my hormones will go all nuts trying to readjust again. Baby’s little flutters are felt when I’m laying down. Nothing strong enough for anyone else to feel, but I know you’re there little one. Nothing makes my heart thrill with joy greater than hearing their big brother say “Mommy I love your little baby in there! *points to my belly*”

Im excited for the future, and admittedly sick of the present, but we gotta keep moving forward.

13 Weeks Pregnant!!

Today I am 13 weeks pregnant, 1 week away from being in the 2nd trimester!

For those of you who haven’t seen my previous posts, I have been documenting my symptoms week by week throughout my pregnancy.

Physically, I have been feeling pretty good the past few weeks. A lot of my earlier pregnancy symptoms have gone away or are greatly minimized. Currently, I have been dealing with nausea only occasionally, mainly if I don’t eat enough or wait too long to eat, and sometimes if a strong smell is bad enough. My sense of smell isn’t nearly as strong as it was at the beginning so that doesn’t happen that often now. I also have been dealing with some cramping/abdominal pain again. I originally dealt with this at the beginning but it was gas pains/constipation pains then. Now I think it is my uterus and abdominal muscles/ligaments getting ready for my belly to expand. I have another doctor’s appointment coming up so I will have to ask about it. No bleeding though, so I’m not too concerned. I also have been having back pain and headaches and sometimes migraines. The headaches are the worst symptom I’ve been dealing with lately. Tylenol is the only pain reliever I can take and it barely touches the pain. This is another thing I will need to talk to my doctor about.

Otherwise, physically I am fine. I have been dealing with some mental health stuff which isn’t so good that I will need to address with my doctor. I have been having a great amount of anxiety and depression. Some of it is because of external things that have been happening that are out of my control. Others are thoughts that I am going to be a terrible mother or I’m going to fail my baby somehow. I want to do the best I can and it’s been hard for me to deal with these, basically intrusive, thoughts. Postpartum depression seems to run in my family on my mom’s side and both of my sisters dealt with that plus horrible anxiety so it’s something I will definitely need to address to my OB-GYN as soon as possible. I wasn’t really expecting this now but considering some of the bad things that have been happening in my life right now it’s not too surprising for me.
