Sleep? Had trouble sleeping for a couple of weeks until I broke out the extra pillows.
Symptoms? Fairly mild right now. Nausea/vomiting/heartburn/indigestion from 5 weeks until 11/12 weeks; exhaustion from the beginning until a couple of days ago; bloating from about 5/6 weeks until the bump started developing.
Food cravings? everything; I'm hungry all of the time
Food aversions? Not much yet, the aversion were worse with Gideon
Labor signs? --
Belly button in or out? In
What I miss? Being able to sleep all night; I'll be missing that for awhile
What I'm looking forward to? Not keeping it a secret anymore!
Milestones? Finally had our first appointment at 12 weeks, 1 day this past week. Baby had a nice, strong heartbeat at 160bpm. Kathy found it almost instantly, which was a huge relief to us! Also, baby has now been on FOUR road trips with us already - twice to Iowa 8.5 hrs each way and twice to west Kansas 4-4.5 hrs each way. That's a lot of driving with a toddler and a stowaway!
High? Hearing that sweet, sweet heartbeat
Low? We've had so much going on these first several weeks; it's been so busy and such a blur
Bump? Yup, starting to show! We can tell, but not too noticeable to strangers yet
It's been so long since I've posted. I finally started showing this week so decided it was time to commence with the posts. The first trimester has been hard. So many emotions go along with pregnancy, and especially with pregnancy after loss.
