I'm 6 weeks and 5 days today and I think it's begun. The one thing I was dreading the most, morning sickness :(
I suppose I can't complain too much because I haven't actually gotten sick to my stomach, but the nausea is out of control. I will be feeling fine one minute and the next I feel like gagging. I also have these spells where I feel fine and then all of a sudden I'm on the verge of passing out, or so it seems. I haven't passed out or anything but I start feeling very sick and run to the bathroom, then I have to lay down on the floor because I'm so hot and queasy. I'm sweating and breathing heavy and then it'll pass. It's always the backs of my knees that start sweating and my ears that feel hot when this happens. I'm assuming it's normal? I don't know but it's just so frustrating because it's so unpredictable and I'm petrified of this happening while I'm at work. I'm praying that it doesn't. Luckily I don't have "morning sickness" because I feel great in the morning, it's usually around 10pm that I really start feeling awful and need to sleep it off. For the last two days though, the nausea has happened throughout the day especially when I think about certain foods. Earlier today I was craving sour pickles and about 15 minutes later while looking for them, the thought of them made me want to throw up. Same thing with pumpkin spice cupcakes, they sounded SO delicious and then an hour later when I went to the store I couldn't even stomach thinking about them. That's the worst thing about it so far I think, craving something but not being able to eat it. It makes me not want to eat anything at all!
The ONE and only thing that I've been craving for weeks and has yet to make me feel gross is a turkey sub with provolone cheese, lettuce and pickles. And I can't even have it because I can't have lunch meat :(
My current concern is our upcoming and first ultra sound and whether or not the baby is healthy. I'm so happy that it's only a few weeks away, but I'm scared for any bad news. Praying for a happy and healthy baby!
We've officially (for now haha) decided on the two girls names we like. We want two names for each gender when we go in for delivery. I want to look at our baby and then decide which name fits him/her the best! It's exciting but frustrating because Tim and I never have the same taste in names! Hopefully over the next 8 months or so we can figure it out.
Well that's it for now. Not much excitement is going on with the baby only being the size of a pea :)
