Of course I am all over the internet these days, looking for websites that will tell me that my appointment on Monday is going to be fine, even though I don't seem to have any preggo symptoms.
Then I came accross an article on What to Expet that had this little gem of a quote for their 'Week 6' appraisal:
Nausea and vomiting: Whether you are experiencing slight queasiness or hurling breakfast, lunch, or dinner (or all three), look on the bright side. (Though admittedly it’s hard to look at the bright side when your view is the porcelain goddess!) Women who experience some nausea are significantly less likely to miscarry than those who don’t.
Well, that's just great. No only am I not necessarily craving anything, but I'm not even disgusted by anything! I know, I know, not every website is a paragon of factuality...my mom says that she never had nausea, and she had three perfectly wonderful pregnancies.
I am at six weeks today. My boobs are still fairly big, but no real "veins" or serious changes. I did feel a little tired today, but that might come with the "I've-been-avoiding-strenuous-activity-because-I'm-petrefied-that-anything-could-shake-loose-my-baby" lifestyle I've been living. Less activity actually makes me more tired. I need my runner's high back! Don't worry, I'm not going to go running just yet...
...but I am going to stop reading articles online. I'll stick to the info that I get from my checkups. The next one is on Monday and the wait is killing me! Come on, little baby...let's hear that heartbeat.
I felt perfect, amazing, awesome from 4w-6w4d. It's not a bad thing that you're feeling good!! Hang in there...
ReplyDeleteIt's so cool that we are a week apart!
ReplyDeleteI am having no nausea or cravings either and I have two babies! I assume it will come at some point, but if it doesn't I will thank god because I hate being nauseated! It's the worst feeling.
I do have some food and smell aversions and some veins but that's it so far and I am at 7 weeks.
I don't like that quote either though...
I had not a moment of nausea or cravings/aversions my entire pregnancy and i have a healthy 3 month old girl sitting with me right now. It made me nervous as well but i kept telling myself every pregnancy is different. If we are blessed again I will probably be puking my brains out!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my blog. It is good to know that someone else is having no symptoms. Good luck with the ultra sound, I bet it will be fabulous news!!
