These are just some notes I took during my first trimester. This will not be interesting to any of you, but it's more for me to remember things and to be able to look back on this time. Sorry, no picture either...I told you, it's not that interesting! :)
- first positive pregnancy test on Sunday, Dec 5th - VERY faint pink line...so light we weren't sure we were seeing it correctly (just like with Caleb). I took several more that week and the pink line kept getting darker each time. :)
- started feeling nauseated (all day) on Sunday, 12/19...just a couple days before hitting 6 weeks. no food sounds good so I pretty much have to make myself eat.
- 12/31: (our 5th anniversary) I took a 25mg phenergan tablet for nausea and it KNOCKED ME COMPLETELY OUT! I took a 4-hour nap and went to bed early...so much for an anniversary celebration, LOL. since then, I have been taking a 1/2 tablet when I need it and do just fine.
- 1/11: I'm 9 weeks and actually starting to feel less nauseated. I take a 1/2 phenergan tablet every morning and then depending on the day, I might take another 1/2 after lunch or in the evening. I've had a weird taste in my mouth for about a week now....don't know what it is! I'm still very exhausted and try to take a nap every day while Caleb is napping. Even though I'm exhausted all the time, I have been having trouble sleeping. I am very restless and feel like I wake up so many times throughout the night. (and it's not even to pee)
1/19: I'm 10 weeks and food is starting to sound good to me again!
1/27: I'm 11 weeks! Went to the OB yesterday and baby's heartbeat was 164 bpm. In other news, I am sleeping terribly! I wake up 3-4 times each night and not just to pee. I am having the weirdest dreams and am just very restless. I feel like my energy is improving during the day. I've not been taking many naps the past week or so b/c I think that actually makes my night sleeping worse. Nausea is much better and I do not have to take meds every day! I've gained 3 lbs as of my 1st appointment. I've got a little pooch but don't look pregnant....just bloated, LOL.
**For some reason, I stopped taking notes after week 11 so that's all I have for the first trimester. Stay tuned for my first belly pic tomorrow!
