And it’s not because I’m freaking out about our appointment on Monday, it’s because this baby is making me feel like crap and I am so thankful.
Friday I really started to not feel so hot which was 5w5d. Ever since then my stomach has been feeling yucky especially in the morning. I woke up one night with the worst stomachache. I haven’t thrown up yet but there have been a lot of times were I have felt I needed to. This is all good right? I also have a bad taste in my mouth all the time. Sometimes gum or a mint doesn’t seem to do anything.
I hate comparing this pregnancy with my other two as I know each one is different and I don’t want to freak myself out, but I never felt this crappy with the other ones. I didn’t feel sick at all with Nathaniel. With Grace I felt off around week 6 and then it suddenly stopped. I’m fearful that will happen but I can’t go there.
I’m remaining as positive as I can right now. Being sick is a good thing or at least feeling sick. Maybe just maybe this baby will thrive. I hate feeling like crap but I also know it’s a blessing and hopefully something good will come out of it.
Less than a week to go before we can see this little one. I’m scared because of what we have encountered the past two times but I’m also hopeful that this little baby is growing on schedule.

You can do this - you are strong! Keeping my fingers cross for you!!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping this is a good sign for you! I just started feeling sick over the past couple of days. :) I can't wait to hear about your u/s!
ReplyDelete*hugs* I remember between weeks 5-8 I was insane with worry. As hard as it is try to remain positive. Praying for you. It is not easy.
ReplyDeleteSick is good. Not easy to handle, but reassuring at least. I also compared my two previous pregnancies with this one, and was SO sick and had that terrible taste in my mouth (FYI it hasn't really gone away). Praying the next few days go fast!!
ReplyDeleteyou are going to have a good appointment - just hang in there for a few more days! I read this on someone's blog just now so hopefully it can provide you some encouragement: "Stop thinking about what could go wrong, and Focus on what could go right." I know we all need a reminder of that sometimes- heck I have to remind myself every day still! Can't wait to hear good news on Monday ;)
