Symptoms

I thought maybe I'd be one of those lucky ones. But, no, Monday morning I was napping peacefully on the train on the way to work when I felt a little feeling in the pit of my stomach. I knew it was coming, and thankfully I made it to the bathroom before I barfed. Yuck. I also have been feeling okay since then, so I think the culprit was my empty stomach. No food for eight plus hours times train rocking = barf.

I've also started to look a little, well, fat. I've only gained maybe 2 pounds, but I look so bloated in my midsection. Today I'm wearing a fitted button-down shirt and really regretting that decision, because it's not very forgiving. My pants are getting snug, and when buttoned, are not all that comfortable. Also, my boobs are huge. Well, huge for me anyways. Huge and sore. I might as well get used to that, I guess.

Also in the last few days, I have been ravenously hungry. Like if it's been two hours since I ate something, my stomach starts growling and feels like I haven't eaten in a week. Therefore, I've been eating pretty constantly and at this rate, I'll gain 60 pounds in this pregnancy.

Tomorrow, we have our first doctor appointment and ultrasound tomorrow. Very exciting!
