What its like at 7 weeks
This is an email I sent to a few of my favorite girlfriends:
UPDATE:
Still preggo. The blood work showed that my "levels are going up great". I have another ultrasound scheduled for this Thursday, (might be able to hear the heartbeat or determine for sure if it is a viable pregnancy - to date.) so expect another update. Sorry for the wait! Didn't mean to drive you crazy! ;o)
My symptoms:
1. Oh holy hannah- if you even look at my sore boobs, i'm gonna knock you out!
2. Ya know that yuck feeling before your period starts? That's me every day.
3. Headaches- and oh yeah, can't take the drugs to fix em.
4. I don't feel like I have worn down the path to the lou, but pretty dern close.
5. Smells - oy. They bug. A lot. Especially the weirdo that sat a few seats away from me when we went to see IronMan (pretty entertaining, actually) who smelled of cigars, and etc. :oO
6. Nauseated, but not to the point of throwing up. No "morning" sickness, but at about 2 every afternoon, I feel a little green in the cheeks.
7. Please repeat all questions and request at least 3 times, slowly and with annunciation. I am suffering from frequent and severe brain farts.
8. Nap time? Can I please have some nap time?
For me, its like everything else in life: You think because a ton of your friends have gone through it, and you've taken good notes, that you have a fairly decent idea of what to expect. But this early on, it doesn't feel at all like I expected. I just feel tired and ick. Less of the glowing, and more of the acne. :oP
BUT even with all that taken into consideration, I'm still excited about it. :oD
