One month left in the first trimester. Finally. I am *so* ready for the first three months to be over. i feel like once I hit the second trimester I can really enjoy this pregnancy rather than be terrified most moments of the day.
All in all, though, the first two months were really good for me. I only had morning sickness for about a week total, and although it’s not fun, it’s definitely doable. I’m at the point now, though, where I’m ready to look pregnant. Right now I just look fat. But, my lower belly is starting to get firm, so I know the baby is growing away. I’m just really looking forward to reaching the point where people will see me and congratulate me.
I’ve started feeling uncomfortable when I sit certain ways. For example, if I sit with my legs crossed too long my stomach starts to feel crampy. If I lay on my right side, or with my torso twisted, my stomach cramps. Apparently, the Smudge doesn’t like those positions.
So, seven months left. My dad says it’s going to fly by. Maybe for him, but I feel like it’s going to crawl. I know in a month or so, I’m really going to start enjoying it and wishing the preganancy to slow down, but right now, I just can’t wait to hold my baby in my arms.
Two months down, Seven to go! Woohoo! 🙂
Enjoy every minute of it and don’t wish it away. It will go by so quickly and you’ll be teaching him/her how to drive before you know it. Just slow down and enjoy the moment!
Hi Cady,
.Everything appears to be going great for you. Another month and you will enjoy the experience a lot more.
Come on back over and relax the video is fine, I checked it.
There is a few seconds of silence before the sound kicks in.
When you mentioned laying on your right side it made me remember that my OB/GYN always reminded me to sleep on my left side (the baby gets the most oxygen this way) he went as far as to tell my husband to roll me over if he noticed I wasn’t asleep on the left side. Just a tip I thought you might like 🙂
I can’t believe your 8 weeks already!!
Soon you’re going to have that belly and some more security! Your last line is so sweet. 🙂
You are well on your way to having the preggo belly. Keep the count down coming! I hope it passes by fast. Enjoy the moments that your little one is growing inside you! Wishing you the very best!!!!
what is your due date… i forget… but I am sooo excited for ya…
I can totally relate to wanting the first trimester to be over and done with. I don’t usually try to speed up time, but in this case, I am so with you. After that, it can slow down for a while, I’ll be very ok with that too.
