Anybody have anything to confess? I posted this last week and got distracted and forgot to come back and post mine and then by the time I came back I had forgotten what I was going to say!

My confession this week is that I actually enjoy watching bubble guppies with Ava Nichol. I like most cartoons to begin with but I think she picked a good one to become attached to. I have the line up song and time for lunch stuck in my head all the time! Haha.

I am not loving being pregnant. After trying for this long and wanting it, I wanted to love being pregnant. I hope it's just a first tri thing and that once I look pregnant and feel baby move and know everything is ok that it'll be easier. Right now, I have a ton of anxiety about it all and feel really not myself at all. It's kind of scary

I hate - and I mean hate - first trimester. Not just the nausea (I never vomited, but I felt pretty crappy for most of the time), but the anxiety was horrible. Up until a few weeks ago, I just expected to miscarry. Now that I am starting to feel her move and I am looking pregnant, I am liking it a lot more. I still have a little anxiety (mostly about future what-ifs), but I'm really starting to enjoy it.

But not everyone loves being pregnant, and that's okay.

I really hope this is me. This gives me hope that it will get better. Thank you!

I am in the same boat.  All I have right now are boobs and a back that are killing me, a DH who doesn't always get it because we haven't had a US yet, and anxiety that I'm going to miscarry or that when we finally do have the US, we won't see a heartbeat.  I will definitely feel better when I have confirmation that our little bean is growing inside of me.

This is me. All the time. Every single day. I have a panic attack and cry just being overwhelmed with the anxiety. It sucks. I don't think it helped that I had dreams about there not being a heartbeat before even getting pregnant. Yep, I'm that crazy.

No, you're not.  You waited so long for your baby it's a totally normal fear.  Hell, I was lucky and I'm freaked out.  I think that once we have our US's and see that our babies are developing properly we will both feel better.  My first is next Monday, when I am 7w0d.  What about you?

I see the midwife for my first appointment on Aug. 15th at 10w6d. They'll schedule an u/s then but I don't know when it will be for. They might schedule at dating u/s between 12-15 weeks or just the a/s. I don't know yet.

First tri ladies - It is definitely NORMAL to feel the way you do. You're being swamped with hormones and your body is trying to get used to them. I often played it off like I was fine the first trimester, then would just blow up out of nowhere. It was scary not feeling in control, but I promise you it gets better. You may not LOVE being pregnant, because it is hard, but you will enjoy it A LOT more than you do right now. Each time you experience something new, like seeing your LO on ultrasound, hearing the HB, or feeling the first movements, you will feel better and better. Hang in there ladies!

Possibly tmi but I can't wait to have a normal pooping schedule again... Uggh that seems to be my worst symptom.

I totally hear you. It sucks...Unfortunately I don't think I'll be anywhere near regular until after little miss gets here.

I had a dr apt today and I think I peed more on my hand than I did the cup....could the possibly give me a bigger cup!! The cup they gave me is like a tiny medicine cup...

I never truly loved being pregnant. Most times, I didnt even like it. It just was what I was. And I have moments where, although I love B, I don't love what is going on and I miss my old life. All of these feelings are normal, even though I also really wanted to have a baby. It's unrealistic to think that you'll love everything about pregnancy and parenthood.

This makes sense. I guess I have guilt because I don't want to seem ungrateful. I am excited that I get to experience this, whether or not I love it or hate it.

I feel this way too. I love my two, but also miss my old life sometimes.
