about 6 weeks...not showing yet of course, just a little fat :)I swear that this is the worst i've felt since I've found out the reason i've been so crummy. I tried eating a bowl of cereal this morning and got a few bites in and had to stop. I thought if i just tried to force feed myself i'd feel better once i ate since that's how its been so far...definitely has not been the case today! boo! i had a peppermint or two (thats been the only thing that can calm my stomach down) and later on tried to eat some spaghetti. Got even less into that and stopped because the taste of peppermint and spaghetti almost killed me with nausea! I dont think i've ever been so close to throwing up without actually throwing up. blehhh
Now its close to 7pm and i'm not even halfway through a bowl of ramen that i started at 6:15. This is just sad, and terribly frustrating. If i don't eat anything my stomach BURNS and CHURNS for hours on end...and usually if i force myself to eat alot of something i feel really good for a few hours. But i just can't stomach anything today...i really hate this. I have jury duty in 5 days, i have no idea how i'll be able to sit through that...
I've been reading alot of community boards on Babycenter.com and it automatically bumped me into the May 2009 Babies board when i calculated my due date on the site. It's nice hearing from women who are the same weeks pregnant as me and knowing that they're having identical symptoms...atleast i know i'm not the only one suffering!
Alot of them go for their first ultrasounds here in the next few weeks, so i know i'm not missing out on anything since i'm sure if i had a doctor they wouldn't do one yet either. Too early still...but I wish we could hurry up and get stupid temporary medicaid so i can actually find a doctor and get an appt planned and whatnot. It would be nice to hear from an actual doctor what they say my real due date is..instead of just me going by what i'm having to guess. But i guess there are worse things to worry about.
I've lost about 5 pounds from not being able to eat so my pants have technically been fitting a little looser, however, i've been so dang bloated that they feel like i've eaten a huge meal and they make my stomach hurt...so even though they're bigger i've still had to sit around with my pants undone to feel slightly more comfortable. It really is unbelievable how a little tiny baby changes EVERYTHING going on in your body. crazy baby!
My heart has been pounding a lot harder too, but thats just from extra bloodflow for baby...still it feels weird having your heart beat like crazy and you're just sitting on the couch. Guys really don't understand how lucky they are that their bodies never do crazy things like this!
I've been feeling this weird tightness on the lower right side of my abdomen. Like its constantly full of pressure and its super uncomfortable. I don't really know what it could mean at all because i haven't read about anyone having something like this. It tends to only really happen in the evenings and around bed time, which is even more strange. I'm really worried it could be an ectopic pregnancy since the symptoms tend to kind of fit in the category, which makes me all the more anxious to get an ob/gyn asap. If it is, it could rupture and cause damage i dont even want to think of, and of course if it is and is caught early enough there is the sad fact that this pregnancy would have to end... :(
Well i guess this is enough rambling for one evening...We plan on telling our families on Saturday. So of course I will update on how that goes!
