5 weeks, 5 days - nauseous!! :D

Nausea set in with hunger yesterday evening as we had to wait a bit for a late dinner! :) Not too bad, especially since it's a touch earlier than when it usually kicks in badly, but I'm still SO VERY RELIEVED!!! Today I felt fine in the morning, and as lunch time approached I began to feel a little bit yeurghy. Decided to tackle morning sickness with PROTEIN this time around, so ate a tuna/sweetcorn/mayo sandwich. I was so hungry! Felt a little better for it, but basically still queasy. And the quease has stayed ever since (as is typical for me - in a weird way the familiarity is nice! :) ) and gradually got a bit worse towards the evening, and dinner didn't really do much for it. Oh well! I just hope it doesn't get worse over the next few days (please please please please please!!) because right now this is yucky and unpleasant, but TOTALLY manageable. I made dinner without feeling too green over it, so I would be really happy to continue with this level of nausea - I have had a lot worse!

I am still spotting, just a little bit, and brown. Last BM (sorry!) did not have any red spotting afterwards, which is a first, yay!

I can also safely say that I am definitely peeing more frequently today and yesterday (much more so today than yesterday) at last! :) I am hungry about a couple of hours after a meal (SO hungry now, 3 hours after dinner with the boys, and anxiously awaiting the Tesco delivery as I type, because the hunger is making me more nauseous and we have run out of foooood!).

Neil is on the phone right now, telling all of his family that I am pregnant! :) Then I think I will wait no longer and blab on Facebook. I know I am spotting, and awaiting a scan, but I'm NAUSEOUS and so much reassured by it. The nausea last night, even though I tried not to at the time, had the immediate effect of HUGE excitement about this pregnancy - I think I have been trying to stay a little guarded, although I was excited and thrilled! Now I am able to let myself think of allll the wonderful things coming my way in May and before then - baby kicks, big glorious round tummy full of baby, fun scans, finding out the gender, naming our sweetie pie, the birth, ohhhhh the snuggles with a precious flopsy snuffly newborn! Breastfeeding afresh! New sibling relationships! All six of my children in one photo! Such joys, I just can't wait! I absolutely can not WAIT to hold a newborn again. *sigh* :D

Because I'm so very thrilled to be carrying and growing this specific tiny little person (heart beating, heart beating, how wonderful and exciting is that?!!! :D ), I just want the world to knoooow! I don't want to wait any more, even if the unthinkable happens and the pregnancy ends. I just want the world to celebrate with me, the existance and precious life of my tiny new baby, however long it may last here on earth! Oh how I pray that it will be many many decades! I already love him or her so very much!

The day after tomorrow I am 6 weeks pregnant (can't believe 6 weeks is just about HERE already!!) and I'll have my doctor's appointment. If I don't update before then, I will update on Wednesday about the appointment and how I'm doing. Thanks so much for rooting for me and being excited with me! It means such a lot to me! :)
