10 weeks

I am 10 weeks pregnant.  Some days it feels like I'm never going to get out of the first trimester. It's dragging on and on. It feels like alot longer than it has been because I've already been to the OB twice and had 3 or 4 sonograms. If this had been a normal pregnancy not followed by miscarriage, I would have just seen the OB for my first appointment last week!

I am anxious to get out of the first trimester.  We won't be homefree, but getting to 12-13 weeks will be a big accomplishment. I am also hoping that all this yuckiness will go away in the next few weeks. I haven't been sick as in vomiting, but I have nausea quite frequently and food doesn't ever really sound good. I've been able to eat pretty good though considering.  I will say that I have been eating alot of crap in the last few weeks. I eat whatever happens to sound good at the moment and sometimes the only thing that sounds good are french fries! I have also eaten a ton of boxed mac and cheese, something I hardly ever do under normal circumstances.

I am so tired all the time. Last night I went to bed at 8:30 and fell right to sleep. I slept until about 7am this morning! I've been taking more naps during the day when I can and I still will be in bed by 9pm!

Something I don't remember having when pregnant with Lucy is the feeling of breathlessness. Just walking up the stairs leaves me huffing and puffing.

I miss feeling like my old self. I haven't been able to cook very much because I just don't have the energy and being around food isn't always a good thing. I miss grocery shopping ( a little bit). Dan's been going to pick up a few things here and there. 

I will say though, this pregnancy has been somewhat easier than when I had Lucy. You'd think with 2 of them in there you'd have double the morning sickness, but really overall it hasn't been that bad. But I still can't wait for the next few weeks to pass.
