This past week 8-9 has probably been the worst so far! I feel like throwing in the towel and giving up, moaning and groaning the whole way, and I'm ONLY 9 weeks in! I can't wait for the sickness, the fatigue, and the utter lack of ambition to just go away! At least for the 2nd trimester, I'm sure it'll be back before this pregnancy is completely over.
I have my next doctor's appointment next Tuesday, so I will update about that during my 10 week update, but I already have a number of questions that I plan on asking. First being, I'm still worried about that cyst that they saw on my ovary and the discrepancy in sizes in just one week between those two ultrasounds. I've been having a lot of sciatic pain this whole week, and I'm seriously hoping that cyst hasn't grown and is going to cause problems like that!
I'm also going to ask about what health concerns and issues I'm likely to face being overweight and pregnant. Gestational diabetes? Blood pressure? I'm worried about this summer being 110+ every day with my blood pressure and any swelling that is bound to happen, kind of scared actually. Oh I wish we had a pool!!
The past few days, anytime I drink water that horrible pain my stomach that I went to the ER for has reared its ugly head. It takes me laying down and 30 minutes of tears and moaning for it to finally stop, it's not fun and I don't know what the hell it means! Do I have an ulcer or something? My heartburn has started coming back, been chugging milk again lol wonder if I'll be back to the 12-13 gallons a month I was drinking during the girls' pregnancy!
A snapshot of 9 weeks:
Symptoms - Nausea has been worse than ever, and eating makes it ten times worse. I've become afraid to eat, which isn't good, but when I do I either vomit or fight the urge to vomit and get severe pains in my abdomen for the rest of the day, who would want to eat? Heartburn, still tired, headaches more often, and a big lack of enthusiasm to put it nicely!
Food cravings - Please don't talk about food!
Size of baby - A green olive! Getting bigger bitty bean!
