Not much of an update this time, but I have a goal to post at least weekly updates.
After last weekend, I thought I’d never survive the work week. But, somehow, I miraculously had enough energy to make it through the day. At least until I came home. =P
Adding to the fatigue, there’s another symptom, but I usually forget about it by morning. Dreams! They say it’s common to have more vivid dreams. Typically, I veeerrrrryyyyy seldom remember my dreams (or even remember dreaming at all). Lately, I’m aware that I’m dreaming almost every night. Usually I remember the dream for at least a short while before forgetting it. Night before last, though, the most unusual thing happened. I was having a somewhat upsetting dream. I don’t remember it being unusually bad, at least by “bad dream” standards, but at the end of the dream I started crying. Then, when I woke up, my face was already contorted as if I was crying and then I started crying for real! It’s almost embarrassing, but I made this blog with the intention of being honest, so there. I wasn’t like, sobbing or anything. But it was enough to wake Pete. It was just really, really weird.
I thought I’d post another tummy pic for week 8, but I was too lazy yesterday to do it. (Sunday starts a new week of pregnancy. Easy to remember. It might actually be Saturday if you calculate it by my last period instead of date of ovulation, but I already forgot and I’m too lazy to calculate it again. Sunday works for me. I rely on preg.fertilityfriend.com to be my brain.) At any rate, no pic. My tummy looks more or less the same. A couple of nights ago, I was feeling sorta bloated, and I looked in the mirror and I was like, whoa my tummy is already looking different! But I think that was more just the bloating than anything else. XD I keep meaning to set up the scale so I can see how my weight has changed, but it comes back to me being lazy.
Here’s the little bean’s 8 week cartoon:
UPDATES:
I got less lazy and started doing productive things. I also set up the bathroom scale. I have gained absolutely zero weight. I might have even lost a couple lbs. But it’s common for me to fluctuate a few pounds from day-to-day. =/
Also! I found a website with some really cool week-to-week pictures. Here it is: *click me*
