Little Bit About Me

My photo
First and foremost, I am a Christian woman: I love Jesus! In this blog you will find stories of trying to conceive with PCOS, MTHFR, Poor egg quality, a unicornuate uteterus, and too many babies in heaven. It is a good thing God is the ultimate healer! Here you will find praise! and you may also find venting (I'm not perfect...) and you will find other stories of my crazy life. All the while through this journey I am holding on to scripture & hoping to one day be a mother here on Earth (waiting on God & His perfect timing...why am I so impatient?) But in the meantime, here you will find me: Jessica, loving wife, hopeful heart of a mother, and faithful friend.

11 weeks...

And starting to feel worse. Taking vitamins is pointless....bc they make me feel disgusting, and tonight I couldnt fall asleep...so what did I do?

You guessed it. I was really uncomfortable and suddenly got the urge to tinkle. I gagged mid pee, sitting on the toilet, and grabbed the first thing I could to puke into...a towel. Disgusting I know. Better that than the floor. I really didnt think it was going to happen, but I was wrong. No balmy feeling this time :-( just felt really gassy then....grossness.

Third time puking, 6 weeks, 10weeks, and now at 11 weeks...I am not liking this trend.

I thought it was supposed to get better not worse!

Anyways, I am feeling quite tubby these days, the bloat is ridiculous. I know I didnt drink enough water today but I fasted for blood work and then my whole day was off....so from not drinking enough fluids I feel more bloated. And the scale agrees with 193.4 =(

Food cravings come and go.
My nipples hurting do too.
Nausea is pretty much constant.
Fatigue makes me feel like I got ran over by a train.
But I have kind of had insomnia (more likely getting back into third shift swing...)

In all of this, I think God has a sense of humor. Because what did I say to James before he fell asleep? "I am kind of nervous for the next appointment...." And then God placed a loud screaching animal that sounded like an amplified version of my cat trying to cough up a hair ball. Not letting me sleep, to only feel so gassy and gross that I eventually threw up.

Nervous? He says? Why? I will give her reassurance. Reassurance she welcomes but is disgusted by at the same time....*sigh*

I have officially thrown up more now since all the time in high school to before this pregnancy. Seriously. And I am out of diet vernors.

Time to try to sleep.

I'm trying not to complain, because I know how blessed I am. I have teared up so many times lately thinking about the road that led us here and how incredibly amazed by God I am. I have a miracle growing inside of me!!!

  1. Its gotta get worse before it can get better! Try taking your vitamin before bed or at least definitely with a snack that should help the nausea

    1. I did both of those things Jill...last night it didn't make a difference, I had a snack about half hour before bed...then took my vitamins right before bed. Bleck it didn't help at all!

  2. The only time I threw up during the 1st trimester was at 11 weeks, when it was "supposed" to be getting better. It happens. The change may not be gradual. For me, one day, I just felt better! Not 100% but like 70%, enough to eat normal food again and not lie down all day.
