5 AM Feeding

Seriously - 5 AM feeding already?? Yup! Egg Drop was hungry and my belly was growling, loud! It woke Gunner up. So up I get. Got me a fiber bar & a yummy glass of milk and was back in bed by 5:20AM. Did I mention the AM part?? I am so not a morning person. I guess Egg Drop is preparing us early. But seriously, 5 AM? We need to have a little talk about this!

Changes

Why didn't any of you telling me about all the changes my body would be doing?? Ok - so you did, but I didn't listen. My body has made some changes since I have gotten off the Progesterone. Number #1 - I am not regular again, yahoo!! In fact, my body has flushed itself out. Oh that backaches are gone! YEAH!! Number #2 - oh the cramping of the abdomen! I can tell my ovaries have taken a back seat and relaxed, but the muscles stretching, it has been fun! Number #3 - I can't get enough sleep. I really can't. Any chance I get, I am napping, and loving it. To bad I have to work. It would be nice to work for two hours, run home, nap for two hours, and go back, repeat. Oh well. I did have something nerve racking happen yesterday. Chris has been working like crazy in our back yard and I went outside yesterday to see what the boys would want for lunch. I was out there maybe 5 minutes and got a terrible pain in my lower back and started sweating. I didn't think it was that hot out there, so I headed inside to get ready to do lunch, next thing I know I am see bright white stars and about ready to pass out. Not good. I yelled for Chris so he could get the dogs in the house and I layed on the couch. It was bizarre. I have had that happen before, but not since 2004 and that is when I found out I am hypoglycemic. I have been really careful about eating and drinking, but I guess I slacked this weekend. I called the doc this morning, they think it was either the hypoglycemia or dehydration. The nurse said to eat and drink and watch what my body does. I guess it's not unusually during your first trimester to have blackout spells. It defiantly scared me. So - I am making a promise to stay better hydrated and really try to eat better, but food just isn't good still. But like I have said in the past, I am so happy to be experiencing all of this. Some days are plain out hard and others are ok. I just hope that it will get better after this week. We are officially 12 weeks on Thursday. It seems just like yesterday they were harvest our eggs and sperms and we are not 3 months prego. Time sure does fly!

Behind

I am very behind on making any posts. So sorry. I have still been way tired. Even 12 hours of sleep is not enough at night. Pure exhaustion is what I have. We are almost 11 weeks along, the weeks just keep moving by! So that means we are almost to the end of the 1st trimester, thank goodness. The sickness is starting to get better. I get a belly ache here and there, depending on what I eat or drink. But definitely alot better! Last Thursday was my last injection of Progesterone!! It was so exciting!! I wonder if that is why I feel better also. Less amount of hormones being pumped into my system. Since getting off the progesterone, I am definitely regular again; and loving it!! It is so nice not having to eat so much Fiber. I am telling you, I had Fiber for every meal. Fiber cereal for breakfast with a Fiber one Bar, lunch, snack - fiber one bar, dinner - fiber one bar with lots of green vege's for the fiber, and before bed, my Benefiber sprite. YUM!! Don't you love that I am excited to be eating less Fiber! I am!! I still believe I am turning into a guy. The changes my body as made is amazing & weird. Very Weird!!
