We're five weeks and five days today, our sweet baby is the size of a sesame seed and growing so quickly now. I've found that this week the cramping and bloating have calmed down a bit, which is nice. While nothing specific has been settling off my nausea this week, I've found it is worst after my naps (which are still happening often haha) or when I'm hungry but it likes to show up randomly too. I'm still loving milk but also spent most of the week dying for a cheeseburger. I'm going to the bathroom more often now, silly hormones oh I seem to also get some very mild heartburn every so often (joy).
Right now my biggest symptoms (aside from my too often bathroom trips) is feeling exhausted all the time and feeling so incredibly emotional. But, like I've said a million times before (and will probably repeat over and over again) all of these minor inconveniences are nothing when it means holding our sweet baby, also I smile everytime I notice a symptom because it is a little signal that our little one is growing well.
One more week before we get to see my obstetrician, I'm looking forward to my appointment but at the same time I'm a little nervous - I know I'll feel so much more at ease when I can get blood work done and see our sweet baby on the ultrasound. Everyone already loves this baby (or these babies?!) and are so excited for us, I also shared the news this week with my coworker - she's pregnant too, just a couple of months ahead of me so it was exciting for us :)
Staying super positive for this sweet baby, I can't wait for May.
