7 Weeks
Sunday, March 29, 2015 - Posted by Danielle at 6:11 PM
This has been a really hard week. I won't go into all the detail I did on my last blog, but some of you know that I have a hormone-related neurological disorder. Without getting into it all, I'll just leave it at, it's been a really hard week. We've been praying hard that God will kick start my hormones to counteract everything that is going on. This is yet another reason I was so glad to have been able to look back at the journaling from my last pregnancy blog to see that it happened then too and it's going to get better! Your prayers would be so much appreciated though because it's truly been a hard week physically and emotionally. Pregnancy symptom-wise, biggest symptoms right now are that I am extremely tired and nausea is kicking in. I feel like all I want to do is sleep and if I didn't have anything else to do, I think I could sleep for a week straight. The nausea has definitely started up too. With Adie, I really didn't have any triggers, I was just plain sick. The good thing with that though was that I could throw up and immediately be just fine for awhile. This time around, I'm just queasy all the time and nauseous if my stomach starts to get the tiniest bit empty. Smell is getting to me this time around too which is different. Mom was over one night this past week and popped popcorn. When does popcorn not smell good!?!?!?!? It was definitely not good.
Adie seems to be content with the idea of becoming a big sister. She's not inquisitive, not real curious, just accepting and content. I guess at this point it's strange to talk about a baby in my tummy when nothing seems different yet than before to her. She is sure that she wants a baby brother though. That one is not changing. I have no idea why, she just says that's what she wants :)
First doctor's appointment is this coming week...while I know that the first appointment is pretty lame, I'm still excited to get this going!!
