How are you feeling?: Tired (I’ve noticed a slump around midday in particular the past few days), sore breasts (can’t decide if I want a bra on or not 😅), bouts of bad gas (the pains from it freak me out); Also, I notice my yoga practice the past week has been more... challenging. My lower body muscles feel like rocks.
Rants/Raves: My husband wants to tell people but I’m worried about telling even our parents this early (though I’ve compromised that far- we’re telling them on Saturday). I want to be happy- well, I am happy- but I’m also very anxious.
Questions: Thoughts on tomorrow being too early for something to be detected on an ultrasound (abdominal or even vaginal)? I’ve maybe read a little too much on what could go wrong and I just want to make sure little poppyseed is in the uterus like it should be, even though I have no risk factors for it being otherwise. Also, anyone who has had increased gas/bloating- how have you successfully managed to decrease it (or at least help it move along a little more quickly and with less pain)?
GTKY: What was your first job? - I worked at Old Navy for the second half of the year, during my first semester of college.
How are you feeling?: Fatigued, constipated, bloated.. other than that I'm feeling ok. I'm trying to stay in my normal routine as long as possible if/when the nausea sets in. I have been exercising 6 days a week (weights, spin, running, etc), drinking 100oz of water or more per day, and eating 30-50g of fiber per day. I am vegetarian with many of my meals being vegan, so I've been taking an iron supplement and its really messing with my normal bathroom habits.
Rants/Raves: Just over the constipation.. lol
Questions: n/a
GTKY: What was your first job? I worked in a department store in my hometown.
