The nausea seems (so far) to be controllable for the most part. Lot of water, ginger cookies and carbs. Fruit has also been helpful.
So let's see, it was a busy, yet pretty uneventful week. I needed a week where I spent the vast majority of time sitting at my desk. Two guys I work with were out this past week which made it a particularly quiet week for me at work. I loved it. I spent the vast majority of the week writing and reworking a report that a young (green) staff member had written that was pretty horrid. I can deal with weeks like that.
So the eventful side of this pregnancy started Thursday when I woke up to some light bleeding. It tapered off over the next 36 hours. I called Dr. M and his nurse sent me in for bloodwork. First draw Thursday, second one will be tomorrow. Given the way I feel (urky) and that the bleeding stopped, I am fairly confident that I am not losing this baby - at least right now. Still I find myself much more paranoid about this pregnancy.
I am really looking forward to my first visit with my ob on August 28th and am hoping I can get an early ultrasound to waylay my concerns. This early pregnancy has just been so different from both of my others.
So let's see - cravings? None really. Carbs are good - bagels with cream cheese are good. Protein (beef) is good most of the time, but there are times it really isn't good. Chicken is still fine. Fruit and vegies are good.
Aversions - depends on the hour. Bacon smelled and looked horrid yesterday.
