8 Weeks
8 Weeks Pregnancy Update:
Symtoms: Exhaustion. Headaches. Swollen boobs. My
digestive system has slowed way down. I will save you from the details but its
not fun on my tummy (which at night already looks 4 months pregnant because I
get so bloated and full). Nausea. Food adversions to everything still.
Frequent urination (3 times a night). Difficulty feeling comfortable at night.
In bed until 3 or 4pm with nausea.
Excited this week: We were going to our first Dr.
visit and were going to get to see our little baby and hear its heart beat.
We also got to ask the Dr. all the questions we had been wondering about
for the last month. The baby was healthy and perfect, and our Dr. is the
sweetest lady, I feel so thankful my sister found her.
The Dr. asked me if I wanted a prescription for
Zofran for the nausea (constipation being a side effect). I turned her offer
down because I wanted to be all natural and do whats best for my baby. My dr.
advised that if I was miserable enough to call her at any time for the
medicine. She knows I am a working woman and that I had been out of work for a
month due to the nausea. I ended up calling her 3 days after our dr. visit
because I just couldn't do it anymore.
Zofran: MIRACLE drug. Saved me. I
could rave about this for so long. I was able to eat foods I wasnt able
to face for over a month. I was able to get out of bed in the morning at 8am
again and feel good. I could work and hangout with my family, friends and
hubby and not be in agony with nausea. It was wonderful to feel a little
more like myself again.
