First Trimester Blues...

amandaheys

Anybody else feel like you're in limbo?

 Not showing because its too early....not having everyone know yet because its too early...just a lovely layer of baby chubbiness making my favorite jeans a little tighter....

 I can't complain because my symptoms haven't been awful.  I just don't FEEL pregnant!  (OK, other than exhaustion!)  It just doesn't quite feel like there is something growing inside me yet.  So I'm thinking more about all the things I have given up so far...alcohol...diet coke...hard workouts...sandwich meats...diet coke....lol

 

I could go on!  I'm just hoping hearing my baby's heart beat next week will convince me that this is all for real and definitely worth every thing I have to give up.

I feel like I'm giving up so much for an unwanted pregnancy. Good news is that we're almost halfway done, sorta..lol.

at least half way done with the first trimester;-)  I didn't realize how much I depended on my diet coke and glass of wine most nights....I'm sure it'll all be worth it...

I hear you. I know this is supposed to be the most critical development stage but I am having no fun. I'm sick all the time, no one takes the pregnancy seriously because I am only 8 weeks, and you can't really do any of the fun planning because of the chance of miscarriage. So hopefully it will get better for both of us.

I Hear Ya, Found out a few Days ago - and Quit Smoking, Gave up that 5 O Clock Drink, Coffee and Limiting my Coca-Cola ( I can't give that up totally, 1 per day is the limit) .  I Feel Extremely Bloated and My Boobs are going to Pop.. just uncomfortable...and I know it is only going to get worse from here is the uncomfortable part.  Doc Appointment is still 2 weeks away  - Anxiety !!!

I wasn't a soda or coffee drinker so I'm fine without those things. I was a vegetarian for 4 months and i had some chicken last week 2x. I can't even tolerate the thought of soy anything. I feel crappy all day. I just want to feel a bit more like myself. I can't wait until this m/s ends.
