Week 10

Had a rough night last night. Decided to go to bed early (9pm-ish) and woke up around midnight unable to fall back asleep! I tossed and turned for what seemed like hours and the started to get nauseated. Not evil morning sickness pregnancy nausea, but low blood sugar because the little peanuts are sucking my life force nausea. So I went down and had a small bowl of cereal with almond milk (closest thing to diary I can tolerate right now). In my mind I miss ice cream, but my stomach is still saying no no. Anyways, I did feel better afterwards so I went back to bed, hopeful to catch some zzz's. Unfortunately my body had other plans... Evil, horrid morning sickness nausea came along and stole any hope I had of relaxing. I cannot wait for this trimester to be over, if only to get rid of the nausea! And the fatigue.

In the end I fell asleep and actually got in a few hours of "quality" sleep around 6am. Thankfully I didn't have to work today! The sleep hasn't been as restful these days though thanks to the constant nighttime bathroom breaks and the crazy weird dreams I've been having. Nothing that I really remember at the end of the day, but vivid enough where I wake up and like WTF?!

So far week 10 hasn't been overall exciting. I still haven't gained any weight and am starting to worry, but thankfully I'm due for another sonogram on Friday. Very interested in seeing what the little munchkins are up to in there! I've been reading pregnancy forums like crazy and most say that it's norm to lose weight during the first trimester due to morning sickness and its okay as long as the babies are growing. I still haven't "popped", but my occasional sciatica and lower back pain will attest that something is going on down there. We shall have to wait and see!

On a non-baby note, I'm so happy that Brandon decided to take the day off Friday to come with me to my appointment! We've decided to celebrate Valentine's day at Jaleo in Bethesda for lunch! Nom nom! Plus they are still having their DC restaurant week menu! Delish tapas for $20?! Yes please!
