Pregnancy Week 7 (Round 3)
- This is about the time in the two last pregnancies that I miscarried.
- I learned that the point at which your body actually expels the pregnancy is not the point at which it first becomes not viable. It was most likely 2-4 weeks before that.
- In retrospect, those pregnancies were much much more mild than this one.
- Which makes sense since the hormones subsided after about 4 weeks of pregnancy....
- On another note: Hello nausea
- Risa says protein wards off nausea (not saltines).
- So I'm snacking on nuts like crazy, putting cashew nut butter on everything!, and craving tofu
- Also acne. Pregnancy has hit me on the face. Specifically on the forehead. Fun stuff.
- Water. Need to drink more water. 8-10 glasses a day. I literally spend all day drinking water or thinking about how I should be drining more.
- I just want to be horizontal. Need to lie down all day. Then I finally get the chance to lie down and it takes 10 minutes to actually get comfortable with the pillows and whatnot. Then once I'm comfortable, guess what, I need to pee! My life.
- My jeans are tight. Yes, already, for a week now. I'm dumbfounded.
- Getting through the days. Happy to be pregnant. Keep telling myself the first trimester will pass!
