How am I feeling? I am less nauseous, as long as I don't go too long without eating. I have more energy, as long as I don't do too much. I am still getting up in the middle of the night to pee, which I know I better get used too because it apparently gets worse in later pregnancy. I am having very vivid dreams about obscure things. "Baby-brain" has officially kicked in, too.
I'm not showing yet or can't feel the baby move, and I know I still have plenty of time to experience it, but after two miscarriages it would be a relief to have a physical sign that everything is OK! I've read in my books and online that with your first you don't start to show or feel the baby move until 18-20 weeks, so still another 5-7 weeks.
I haven't gained any weight yet, but I am very bloated. Even my loser clothes I have to wear my maternity band with now. So I just look fat and feel an unnecessary need to announce I am pregnant, especially in public. My 28th birthday is Monday and I am going to buy a fetal heart rate doppler to put my mind at ease between appointments. I hate waiting four weeks! My next appointment isn't until July 13 when I am 15 weeks. My next appointment after that should be for the gender reveal, so early-mid August. I am so anxious, excited, nervous to find out what the gender is since we TTC a girl. I will be happy either way as long as the baby is healthy!
