Hi everyone, my nausea has passed even more, the only time I feel sick is when brushing my teeth after breakfast, and if I brush too far back, my breakfast comes up - yuk, at least I havnt been sick at all from the start and I am now 9 weeks and 2 days, so doubt I will be sick now (fingers crossed!!)
As for other symptoms, my boobs are sore when I wake up but generally ok (although alot bigger!), no headaches, no backache, however I have now had three bouts of terribly painful indigestion that nothing seems to shake apart from a lay down. Last night's seems to have come back after breakfast this morning, so more gaviscon but it doesnt seem to do much good. Dont know whether it's food related as I got it yesterday on an empty stomach as I was hungry - so eating little and often will still have to apply to try and stop it happening.
We still havnt told anyone else, it is getting a bit frustrating, so if everything goes well in a weeks time at the scan, we shall then tell everyone else after that, I will be 10 weeks and 2 days then, but cant keep it hidden much longer as I am starting to show! It will be so nice to have it all out in the open.
Theres not much else to tell, I guess I feel like it is going so slowly as counting every day till the scan, but I am sure as time goes on it will probably fly by as we will have lots to buy and prepare the nursery ready for our arrival.
Thats all for now then

SCAN APPOINTMENT!
Just to let everyone who knows about my blog that we have our first scan on the 4th of October - 2 weeks today! I will be 10 weeks and 2 days and cant wait! Craig is winding me up about there being two babies in my tummy as I am already showing - but twins definately do not run in the family so hopefully no chance of that! I am nervous about having one let alone two!
My sickness is passing even more, and I am going out for walks with mum a couple of times a week now that I feel better, I need the exercise, which in turn I think is helping me sleep better.
Well bye for now, will write again in a few days.

STARTING TO SHOW!
I cant believe it - I am already starting to show - Saturday there was nothing and Sunday it just appeared! Craig was shocked and even my Mum couldnt believe the difference - she had seen me Saturday and immediately saw the change! Guess it's because I am petite and slim. At this rate I will have to start telling people as it looks obvious. I thought Sunday that it might be bloating, however it is still here on Tuesday!
We are seeing Craigs brother and family on Saturday so it will be nice to look at little bit pregnant to them.
My nausea is easing although I am finding I am definately more tired the last week or so, I get tired around 7pm then feel sick, so have been going to bed really early, but still not sleeping at all well. Waking up constantly and loads of dreams, I'm exhausted!
I havnt had the date of my scan yet, I cant wait, even though I know I am pregnant, it will be nice to have some confirmation that there is acually something in there!
Anyway, bye for now, will write again when I have some more to tell!

SEEN MIDWIFE
Just an update to say that I saw the midwife yesterday, lots of forms to fill in, and tests, my urine is fine, and she took four lots of bloods to be sent off. I will now get free prescriptions throughout my pregnancy and also free dental treatment (although I never have any fillings anyway but at least my check ups will be free!). My weight and blood pressure are fine too.
We ran through other forms and I have confirmed that I want a hospital rather than a home birth as it's our first one, and think it will be safer for both me and baby. I have said that I will breast feed and express milk for bottles so Craig can feel involved with feeding and not left out!
To be honest, I was so nervous it all went by in a bit of a blur!
Good news is that we should have our scan at 11 weeks, I will get an appointment through the post, so fingers crossed. Cant wait to see that there is actually something inside of me that is making me feel so sick!
As for the nausea, it is ever present, still in the night worse that ever, I am sure I am going to choke to death, eating biscuits at 3am when I'm half asleep! New nausea symptom is at lunch and dinner, half way through my meal. If I dont feel sick, I nearly fall asleep!
Well thats all for now, I feel sick and I am tired, so going to rest up for a bit, I am turning into a square eyed slob on the sofa...... !
