5 weeks, 2 days today. Still too early for me to be comfortable, but I've made it further than I did last time we got pregnant. So I'm hoping for the best. It helps that I'm constantly reminded by my symptoms that I actually feel pregnant.
- Food doesn't sound good at all throughout the day. I have to force myself to eat a yogurt in the morning, and yesterday it took me an hour and a half to eat the entire thing. As the day goes on, food sounds more appetizing and I'm able to eat dinner and then usually snack on something before bed. It's not that I have morning sickness, exactly...I'm not throwing up and I'm not all that sick to my stomach. Just small waves of nausea, constantly reminding me of the changes taking place within me! Thankful for that, actually.
- So. Thirsty. Been drinking a lot of juice and water. And peeing about 100 times a day.
- Tender boobies....ow.
- Cannot sleep! I'm thoroughly exhausted but I cannot sleep! I usually fall asleep for about 1-3 hours in the bedroom then wake up completely restless and unable to get comfortable. So then I move out to the couch and toss & turn there until it's time to start my day. Thank goodness I have time for naps if I need/want them otherwise I'd be a walking zombie.
Other than that, I feel pretty good. I actually had some energy yesterday and accomplished laundry, homework, grocery shopping and made dinner. Which obviously means I will be sitting on the couch for the next 2 days because, I mean...really? I'm exhausted, lol.
I'm just ready for finals to be over with tomorrow and to have 2 weeks off for Spring Break. Then we'll be in Nashville for a few days. Next semester is my last semester before I graduate, and all I have is one class and my final internship (working with teen moms & pregnant teens, actually). I'm ready to be done, that's for sure. Bring on summer (even if I will be miserably hot).
