Holy crap traveling in early pregnancy is so much harder than in the third trimester like I did the first time. Flying also feels a billion times rougher and more turbulent than I remember is being. It's also hard to avoid morning sickness at someone else's house. I'm counting the literal days till we can go home.Β @thescarletmom ice cold gingerale on the plan was so helpful, thanks for that tip ππ»
@kalesix3 that sounds so rough, I'm glad the ginger ale helped!! Fingers crossed you get some relief and/or the time flies until you can rest in the comfort of your own home!
We happened to run in to my in laws at aΒ pumpkin patch today (my husband's dad remarried and had another kid when DH was a teen) and ended up spending a few hours together there. It was great, DS loves his aunt, but it was SO HARD just to not complain outloud about how uncomfortable/not good I was feeling since we haven't told them yet haha.Β
Guys, I just want to share how excited I am this time around!! I have had multiple losses and have two healthy boys, and Iβm starting this pregnancy the most mentally well that I have so far! I have the mental energy (so far) to really take care of my body the way I need to, and I have so much hope that taking good care of my body from the very first couple weeks will really help symptoms. Weβll see. I had such severe dehydration with my last pregnancy.Β
Also, I lived in China during my other pregnancies, in a rural area with terrible healthcare. This is my first time being able to have a midwife and have regular appts, my first time starting a pregnancy out in a home Iβm settled in and will be in when baby comes, and the first time weβve gotten pregnant since my husband got this job that pays well. I feel so freaking stable I donβt even recognize myself, and Iβm amazed how different a positive test feels this time around!!! I am so so excited!! Not to mention the prepared feeling that having aaaall the baby things stored away and ready has given me. I feel so dang prepared and it is a new feeling.Β
Thanks for listening, anyone who read all of that!! π
