WHATS NEW THIS WEEK?
Sickness!! This has been the most challenging week in terms of how I’ve been feeling. The weeks previous, I was just feeling bloated, a bit tired, and out of breath. Suddenly, I’ve been hit with hot flashes, hot and cold and shivery, waves of feeling like I’m going to throw up, light headedness, dizziness, exhaustion, and just not in my body at all. I feel constant bouts of nausea and just really not interested in food. Having to force myself to eat which is so unlike me. I don’t feel like anything. Everything sounds gross to me. I’ve never felt so sick. Ive also been waking up with a sore throat… completely fatigued. I’ve been sleeping and resting way more. Just feeling uncomfortable and bothered.
I feel okay when I’m lying down but as soon as I stand up I feel nauseous, dizzy, light headed, out of breath hot and cold and out of it.
Tummy is flatter in morning and as soon as I eat my tummy blows up and I look super bloated. And night time my belly is so much bigger.
MOST CHALLENGING MOMENT
Waiting to see the dr. It was so nerve racking because so many people tell you scary stories. I have learnt that I just need to listen to my doctor (who is so amazing and calm) and I need to just trust in my own body and it’s ancient feminine knowledge that’s been ingrained.
MOST EXCITING MOMENT
Went for our first scan! At 6 weeks + 5 days.

REFLECTIONS?
It was the most beautiful moment to see and hear the heartbeat. It made me feel so much more calm and relaxed.
Trav was away in the beginning of the week for 6 days which was a bit challenging, I missed him when I was feeling so weak. He was back in time for the first ultrasound ♥️
