pregnancy update (9 weeks and 2 days)

How I’m feeling: Fairly well. Still very tired, but I seem to have more bouts of energy from time to time and am napping less. Still having slight nausea and cramping. Other things have set in like overall back pain, indigestion, discomfort, and sometimes the inability to fall asleep. HUNGRY ALL THE TIME!

Morning sickness? The morning sickness has really died down. Instead of throwing up every other day, now I’m throwing up every week and a half or so. I still have a lot of nausea, but it is really slight and usually the worst when I haven’t eaten.

Cravings: Still liking stuff that is spicy like tacos, tomato stuff (if it’s pizza, but that’s about it), and baked potatoes…but the last 2 weeks the baby has decided that it wants to be healthy. Right now it’s fresh fruit that I can’t get enough of. Also, my normal coffee cravings have diminished by about 75% which is wonderful!

Showing yet? I think I am. That extra 3-7 pounds is the kicker, and while it’s weird that I haven’t gained any more weight, my belly is pouting out a little. (not sure how that is possible…) My clothes are increasingly uncomfortable and I’m living in my elastic waist pants! People will say that it’s too early to show at 9 weeks, but I’ll let you be the judge of that for yourself:

That’s really it. Only about a week and a half til our first ultrasound!
