WARNING:

I'm starting this blog to record what's going on in my first pregnancy, in which I have just entered my fifth week. I know, it's bad luck to tell people this soon... but if this is how I can avoid whining to my husband all the time, then I'm sure he will take the risk!

So, yes, I am pregnant. I am also very, very cranky today (that might have a little something to with it being Monday...). Other problems I feel like complaining about:

  • I feel mildly ill - not pukey, just... off.
  • I'm dizzy.
  • I'm hungry and there is nothing I want to eat. When I finally force myself to eat and finish something, that becomes all I want.
  • Parts of my body will not stop being sore (I'm being nice for any male readers that may stumble upon this blog).
  • I'm tired, not actually sleepy-tired, but physically - I don't want to move or lift my legs, which wouldn't be much of a problem if I wasn't registered to run a half-marathon come early September.

Did I mention I'm whiny? Not just normal girl whiny - I've taken it to a whole other level. Like, stomp my feet, pout and audibly whimper throughout the day kind of whine. And that's just when no one is around. Of course, since the boy and I haven't told anyone yet (spare a few close friends because I can't keep my mouth shut and if something bad were to happen, I'd need them for support), he's the only one who hears the whining. If the dog hears it, he doesn't care, he just wants more cheese (I actually ate some of it)!


So, to sum up this first entry, I'd like to say I'm more than enthusiastic about having a child. This pregnancy bit is throwing me for a loop though! Feel free to comment with advice (not criticisms, thank you!) or friendly words of support!


Fondly,
Danger Mouse


p.s. - I like this Blogger thing - I hit a few buttons and my post was gone! But, there was a recover post and it saved it! Just thought I'd put something else non-whiny in this post!

Welcome to the wonderful world of...

HORMONES!!!

Don't worry - your body will adapt soon enough, and the second trimester will be great!

The third trimester... um, well, we'll just see how you do. Some of us may head for the nearest bomb shelter to wait it out! LOL! ;)

OK - seriously - Congratulations! I remember how exciting and scary and mind-blowing it is to be where you are.

Just wait. The best part is in about 7 months and 3 weeks - the first time you hold that incredible little person!

T. :)
