5 Weeks

Mommy Check-in

How far along? 5 weeks

Weight: 107 lbs

Health: Unfortunately, I had a cold all week, so I don't know how I would feel if I was "normal."  I've been tired, nauseous, and out of breath a lot, so I guess those are all good signs.

Maternity Clothes: Not yet.

Sleep: Again, the cold was messing with my sleep.  I've had a hard time falling asleep and I've been waking up a lot at night.

Food: I'm losing my appetite and nothing sounds good.  I ate some very strange foods (for me) like a pizza sub and hot dog this week, and they were SO good!

Best Moment This Week: The cold is getting better and I'm happy that I was able to get through the week.

Planning/Preparation: Just thinking about things that need to get done.  Our vacation to Mexico/Caribbean is now cancelled and we're going to go to lake Geneva instead.   Hell yeah, maternity leave July - Sept!  That will be SO nice!

What I Miss: BEER

What I'm Looking Forward To: Getting through this next week.  If we can get through this week, it will be farther than last time.

Next Appointment: Nov. 12

I'm scared.  The first few days, I was so scared I was going to wake up miscarrying like I did last time.  The worry has gone down a lot during the week and I feel more symptoms and feel more crappy.  I'm really trying to stay positive, but then I also hate being too positive because you never know what might happen.
