Food aversion?

So we take the dog for a walk down to a local cafe.

I'm hungry.

I look at the menu, and nothing really calls to me. I think the scrambled eggs could be ok.

They arrive.

I'm suddenly not hungry.

I eat it, and its fine. But then the texture/taste/something makes me feel somewhat queasy.

I didn't finish it.

Weird and annoying.

Maybe I'll have an apple instead...

Too late!

Just rang to book my first appointment with the OB my Doc has recommended.

Obviously a very popular man, as apparently I am too late. They are booked out for September and are now taking bookings for the 2nd week of October.

October?! I would have had to book in when I missed my period! Sheesh!

So it begins. I'm sure we'll be too late for child care, too late for kinder, probably too late for the preferred primary school and secondary school!

Our blazé lifestyle will have to be better planned from now on from the looks.

Doctor today

Blood work etc came back fine, except I'm a bit low in Vitamin D. Thought I was in the sun enough, but I have to take a supplement.

We chose an obstetrician and hospital.

And we got swine flu shots. Other flu shots we'll get in March.

Also told the pilates instructor this morning, thought it might be pertinent that she knew, just in case she had some crazy advanced pilates move she wants me to try in the future.

I was absolutely spent after our 1 hour session. And after we had lunch, I was ready to crash. So, so tired. Had one of those sweet sleeps, but it was only half an hour, then we had to go see the doc. I was not happy!

Lethargy

I have been trying to not sleep too much over night. I like to have my 8 hours and I'm happy. Any more than that and I feel tired for the rest of the day.

But since conception, I tend to turn the alarm off and lay in bed for another hour before getting up (I hear this is good for morning sickness, even though I haven't had any).

This morning, after going to sleep at 2am (and waking up a couple of times to pee and tossing and turning feeling hot then cold - we had a warm overnight temperature), I turned the alarm off at 10am and didn't wake up til 11:30!

My body obviously needs it, as I don't feel too wrecked with that extra sleep. But most of the day is already gone and I was going to be productive.

Must try and get to bed before midnight, seriously.

No way José

I really could go a fresh salmon sushi handroll with wasabi and ginger and soy...

mmmmmmm...

Yawn

Hubby asked me how often do I think about being pregnant. I said, well, every time I'm peckish, every time I go to the loo, every time I feel a light cramp, and every time I feel my tender boobs.

So, a lot!

I feel like I'm eating more than I normally do. I'm not in reality, but my after food tummy never seems to subside. Or maybe that's just the water retention?? Gawd I hope so, cos I don't want blow up like a balloon too much! That is the aim.

Still a bit tired. Well, not so much tired, but low in energy. It was quite warm today and we walked the dog to a cafe for lunch, and after eating and proceeding to walk home, I felt really low in energy. Then I bombed for the rest of the day. I didn't get that much done at all. Hoping tomorrow is more productive.

7 weeks

Its the size of a raspberry now. Mmm... raspberries...
