Week 10

I am 10 weeks pregnant today! 1/4 of the way there!!



I am still not really showing yet just feeling a little fatter.

I am really looking forward to the 2nd trimester which is finally starting to look a little closer.

I have had the worst morning sickness this week. I have had no relief even from eating. The only time I've felt somewhat ok is when I am laying down. Even then, as soon as I get up to go to the toilet the nausea sets back in. I am trying so hard to be grateful for this sickness because I am growing the most precious gift in the world-a baby but it's hard! I am thinking this could very well be the last time I will experience this!

I had a drs appointment on Wednesday. Just to get a referral for my 12 week scan. It's all booked in for the 21st of this month when I will be exactly 12 weeks. I'm very excited and scared at the same time. I just want to see that there really is a baby in there and that everything is ok.

I am not getting very much sleep. We have been having temp of 40+ for the last week. Finally a cool change came yesterday which I'm enjoying a lot. Unfortunately Essence doesn't feel the same way and has wanted to feed 10 times a night! I'm desperate for sleep.

I've been a bit emotional these last 2 weeks. I have had big decisions to make and have felt quite drained. We have decided to put the boys back in school. They start tomorrow.

I have been using the freezer meals that I made earlier on although I'm pretty much out now.

I am not really enjoying any food at all but I can not stand bread. Even the thought of it makes me want to run to the toilet.

I am looking forward to booking in my first midwife appointment sometime this week.

I believe I have felt the baby move twice this week. The first time I was laying on my back on the lounge praying that the baby would be ok when it fluttered about 6 times! I really believe it was the baby even though it's extremely early. I think I felt it again today.
