Ever feel like you haven't had a full good day in a long time? Well that is what I have been feeling lately. Who knew that the first trimester would suck so badly. The good thing is that everything is "normal" and the sickness that I am feeling is nothing out of the ordinary. The sucky part is that it is normal and feeling like this comes with the package.
I have an aversion to pills now. Taking the extra progesterone 2x daily, Metformin and my pre-natal vitamin the moment that the pills hit my mouth I gag. Great. After the first trimester I will get to eliminate the Metformin and (hopefully) eliminate the extra progesterone.
Over the weekend I broke down. I was hungry but didn't want to eat. Nothing sounded good and the fear of the pain I would be in after I ate was greater than my desire to eat. I can't wait until this is all over and I can eat a hunkin' steak without distress.
Also, a bonus for early pregnancy is constipation. I know, not the loveliest topic, but honestly I can't wait to take one big huge dump. To think that I complained of my daily diarrhea episodes when I first started Metformin to now where I rejoice at the sign of a bowel movement.
Water retention is setting in and my rings are getting a bit too tight for comfort. Need to find a band to replace it for the next 7 months.
Next pre-natal appointment is on our 2 year wedding anniversary. The hubs better take me out for a nice dinner (pending I don't feel like vomiting the entire time).
He has been great. He has been doing laundry and doing the heavy lifting. He is willing to run out and get what ever I need when I finally decide its time to eat without complaining. Where would I be without him? How do these girls on 16 and Pregnant do this on their own?
I am looking forward to the light at the end of the tunnel. Right now I just feel fat and frumpy and can't wait until the morning sickness subsides and the bump is revealed. I need justification for the fatness.
