And So it Begins..

Okay, so just 4 short days ago, I found out the big news. It’s exciting but mostly scary. And very difficult to suddenly adjust to all the things you can and can’t have. Even though I just found out Monday afternoon, by Tuesday morning I was more tired than I have ever been and feeling extremely woozy all the time (which makes going off caffeine particularly hard).

I noticed food seems to help a bit with the sleepiness and the wooziness, but only if I eat every 5 minutes. Like really? Only 4 weeks along and I’m stuffing my face nonstop? Since yesterday, I’ve been feeling slightly better. I’ve been trying to get to bed by 7pm and have been eating about 2 teaspoons of Nutritional Yeast everyday in case I have a B vitamin deficiency.

I’ve also been trying to snack on nuts and other healthy items during the day. For some reason, since about Tuesday, I seem to have this strange aversion to junk food. Like no matter how much I want chips, I can’t bring myself to eat them. A co-worker made brownies the other day and I only ate 1 (very unheard of). So at least my baby will be healthy hehe.

Oh and last night, I couldn’t sleep on my stomach. I suppose it could be just a stomach ache from eating too much (didn’t have dinner until about 7 and then went straight to bed). And this morning my skins all dry and itchy. I suppose I should start rubbing my tummy with cocoa butter, but I figured it was too early to have to worry about that now.
