Hi all
Ugh. Just…ugh.
I’m suffering with mouth ulcers. Lots of them. There isn’t a part of my mouth that doesn’t hurt right now. I’ve also had a stinking cold since Wednesday. I thought it was starting to improve but yesterday I was knocked for six again and today I feel horrendous. Going to leave work half an hour early today to rest up again.
DH being fabulous. Taking care of me and not moaning about my complete lack of interest in anything or my constant bad mood. He does keep saying “I thought you’d be happy” with a sad look on his face, and I keep explaining that I am happy but I feel rough and it’s difficult to show happiness when you’re so tired. I think he’s beginning to understand.
Boobs are falling out of bra so I really need to order a new one. I’ve lost 3lbs since finding out I was pregnant but feel (and look) half a stone heavier. Constantly freezing – has anyone else had this?
Hair in desperate need of a colour but I’m stupidly scared to go before 12 weeks. Mainly because I will need to get a skin test (my skin is much more sensitive now) and I have mutual friends with my hairdresser and she’s a gossip. I have an appointment booked for Saturday but I’m considering cancelling. Is that daft? DH is worried about the chemicals before 12 weeks too.
I’m going to tell my Dad this week and DSIL at the weekend. I’m 10 weeks on Wednesday so feeling a bit more confident. I don’t have my scan date through yet but I’m hoping it’ll come through this week. Overall, I’m still not going to do a big announcement. I’m now worrying that the anomaly scan will pick something up (yes, I’m worrying about a scan 10 WEEKS AWAY, FFS) so I don’t plan on doing a whole “Woohoo, pregnant person right here” announcement at all.
I guess I just can’t believe I’m lucky enough to actually be pregnant. I’m not a lucky person so I guess I’m just expecting something to go wrong. I need to find my “glass half full” persona, she’s hiding in their somewhere (probably next to my squished bladder)
