I think I'm experiencing morning sickness. Well, a slight version of it, but more so than before. I just feel yucky and nauseous. I'm not gagging, I'm not barfing, but I'm just feeling yucky. It's kinda like a light version of motion/sea sickness. It started this morning, and it hasn't gone away yet (after an hour or so). Generally, I'd feel a little nausea, but it would come and go, and it would definitely go after I eat something or force myself to not think about it. However, this time, none of my prior tactics are working. I had my breakfast (a fruit and yogurt smoothy) and its still here. I feel lightheaded and dont want to make any sudden movements with my head. And I opened my email, and one of the WTE emails I got this morning mentioned a brocolli omelet and all I can think is YUCK!!! bleh. This is kinda cool though, if this is morning sickness. Never really had it before, and not even quite sure if this is it now, but I'm hoping it is....
Other than this weird feeling, the only other real symptom I have at 5weeks 1 day is sore nipples. Yup, just the nipples, not the boobies.
Wait, now that I think about it, I may be moody or irratable. I've been able to keep it under control, (or so I think), but my DH got the worst of it last night. I freaked out about him being on the computer too much (which I think he is), and it ended in a yelling match and him sleeping in our guest bedroom. Things are were ok in the morning, a teeny bit tense, but I hate those kind of arguments. We've got a great relationship and generally get along very well, so when that happens, it sucks. Anyway, I feel sort of uncomfortable airing our dirty laundry, but I guess it's all in the name of sharing my pregnancy symptoms. He's on duty tonight, so I wont see him until tomorrow night when I get home from work, so by then, things will be back to normal.
The other symptom I think I have this week is that I'm hungry, all the time. I'm a little obsessed about my weight and working out, so my goal is to eat well and not gain too much unnecessary weight this pregnancy. So when I do eat, i try to eat healthy. I've been focusing on eating at least one raw fruit and one raw vegetble for my snacks. So far this week, I've been able to keep it up.
12 more days till we see our little one on ultra sound!
Try crackers before you get out of bed.
ReplyDeleteThat may help some.
Sounds like morning sickness. I hope that it doesn't get too bad for you. You may start to notice that your nose is getting really sensitive. Anything can be offensive at this stage of the game. :) I am so excited for your upcoming ultrasound too!!! Take care hun!!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS! It's so exciting when another "TTCer" gets that BFP. I hope your pregnancy goes so well with not too much m/s.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like morning sickness to me. I'm excited for you!
ReplyDeleteYou sound pregnant to me! I hope these next few days go by quickly for you!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh yes, you sound just like me at 5 weeks. The nipples were sore, but not the bbs. And OMGTHEHUNGER! It doesn't go away... at least it hasn't for me (just finished my second bowl of cereal of the day and it's only 7:30am). You definitely sound pregnant!! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a healthy, growing pregnancy to me!
ReplyDeleteMy best snack was string cheese and apple sauce. Or a whole wheat tortilla with some melted cheese. Protein always made me feel better. Of course, what works for one person may not work for the next. But that is my assvice for the day!
Things with Hubby will get better. My Hubby & I had a rough start because I didn't think he understood just how bad I felt. The pregnancy wasn't real to him yet and he didn't understand how something so small could affect me so greatly. Don't worry - you will both get there.
