Week 9


Oh baby, this week was by far the most challenging! It started last Monday when I couldn't get enough to eat! I ate pizza three times that day. It was the first time I noticed that I got a little nauseous if my belly was hungry. On Tuesday, I got sick at lunch time. I continued for the rest of the week with same pattern. I felt great in the morning but slowly went "downhill" as the day went on . I pretty much got sick once or twice a day. On Thursday, I bought the sea bands that all of my prego friends are wearing. They go on your wrists and press on a pressure point that is supposed to reduce nauseousness. I don't know if they work but I'm sure wearing them all the time! I definitely felt better on Friday and Saturday because I didn't get sick on either day. Oh, did I mention how tired I am? Ha! I went to bed by 7:00pm, three nights this week. No kidding, I slept for 12 hours and it felt great!
This week I also switched to Cape Fear OBGYN. A friend at one of my schools highly recommended one of the doctors at this practice. I'm really excited to see them because they are all female doctors. I had contemplated who I was going to see and really had some fears about going to any place where I would rotate through numerous doctors and never really develop any personal relationship with them. At Cape Fear, there are only 3 doctors. I have my first appointment with them on January 7th. I can't wait!
