Week 8

So they changed my due date. I am now due on April 30th instead. Week 8 was pretty eventful. I had my first ultrasound. Yay, I'm a proud mother of a blob with a heartbeat! I couldn't see much other then a blob but I did hear a nice heartbeat that averaged 143. Exhaustion has hit me hard this time. Not sure if I didn't notice it last time since sleeping whenever I wanted was no big deal. But this time, omg, I need more sleep. The bitch of it is, I can't fall asleep right away at night. It takes me FOREVER to get comfortable and I'm only in my first trimester!

Morning Sickness has decreased drastically. I had one gagging session all week. The rest of the time I just am not in the "mood" to eat certain things. I can totally deal with this.

Overall, so far so good. But it's only the beginning. And November/December/January promise to be very very busy. Heck, who am I kidding, so does October! Hopefully I'll be able to update regularly!

Week 6 & 7

Wow, I’ve been so busy. Timing sucks since I’ve been hit with the exhaustion of being pregnant as well. My diabetes is getting worse. Went to the doctor this week and was given insulin. I’ll be my own doctor for a bit. Increasing my dosage until my numbers get and stay where they need to be regardless of what I eat. I'll also proceed to yawn regularly since I just CAN'T get enough sleep.

Symptoms:
Breast Tenderness - Moderate
Morning Sickness – Moderate (actually threw up twice)
