Every morning I wake up grateful for the gift
that's growing inside of me. I still can’t believe this is happening
but the idea is settling more as each day goes by. I literally have a countdown
in my head of the ultrasound date October 24th, 17 more days! Those
days can’t come any sooner.
I’m very excited and currently obsessing over baby
books. I just got the Pregnant Body book, which is amazing (pictured above).
I’m very very tired and take naps almost every day
when I get home and if not that I’m passing out by 8:30, still shocked about
that one. A new thing is that I can’t
hold my pee overnight. For the last five days I’ve been getting up around 4:30
to go and it’s been interrupting my sleep. I still have sore boobs still and
now a dull backache in the evenings. BUT I love it all and I’ll take it any day
everyday. I’m still so amazed.
I had a hair appointment this week and had to tell
my hairdresser why I wasn’t getting my hair dyed. She was so excited for me and
then she said to share in your joy I’m pregnant too! What!!!! She’s seven weeks
pregnant. I was so excited for her especially since she had also suffered a
miscarriage this summer. Pretty amazing stuff I tell, how life works right?
Other than that not much going on just patiently
waiting, not like I’m not well versed and waiting . . .
Until next time friends, how is everyone else
doing?

I think your signs sound promising, Cyndi! I, too, was exhausted early on, taking naps almost every day which I normally don't do unless I am sick. And I also ended up waking up around 3:30 or 4:00 a.m. to go to the bathroom which also wasn't normal for me. It's so hard to wait for those appointments! Try your best to keep busy! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!
oh yeah! I was SO tired! I went to sleep around 9 which is unheard of for me! I am better at staying up now, but boy that first trimester is crazy!
I can't wait to hear about your u/s. Hurry!
Oh, and I have the Human Body book by DK, as well as a few other and love them! The illustrations are awesome. I will have to look into the pregnant body book for sure!
I'm so happy for you!
All sounds like its going great so far!! Tiredness was my biggest symptom early on...naps were my best friends and on the days I wasn't at work I often slept for half of them!! Can't wait for you to have your scan! xx
Hey cyndi! Are u still on cloud 9??? Hehe... WELL U SHOULD BE :) I hope ur doing ok... Everything u just described, I experienced too those first weeks! The dull headaches were a bit of a pain. But like u say... It's all worth it! I have this book too! Isn't it awesome? I'm also reading What to Expect.. Although they tell me not to read too much into it. Eh. hurry up Oct 24!!! I bet ur just counting down the days! :)
Hope u have a wonderful weekend! Take care of yourself!
