7 weeks, 3 days (blueberry!) **My due date changed to May 25th!**
Ha!
I daydreamed about turkey, stuffing, gravy and pumpkin pie the days leading up to it, and it was SUPER delicious.
Here's what you don't think about though. You know how a normal person is knocked out after a big turkey meal?? Yea, triple that being pregnant! I had to leave the table after I finished my plate and laid down for a good 30 mins (I didn't sleep and I heard my mom, family friend and Gram give my husband and all the boys a lecture about how it's hard work to make a person and they would never understand, haha).
I came back in time for pie....obviously!
My 81 year old great-aunt was more lively and awake than I was after the meal, I wanted to go home at 8:30! I actually dozed on and off during the 20-30 minute ride home, while that great aunt and my husband chatted away in the front.
When I got home, I had such bad indigestion and heartburn, and I'm still suffering with the indigestion today. I woke up so many times too since I was so bloated and in pain from the gas!
Lesson learned, turkey dinner.....you win!
On a side note...I never realized how quickly and completely different you feel once you are pregnant. I never ever thought I would feel such a dramatic change so quick and stay so consistently. I'm exhausted, bloated and crampy at all times and it started a few days after finding out I was pregnant! I'm hoping 2nd tri really is a bit of a break like they say it is, that would be awesome!
haha you poor thing, I hope the second trimester gives you that burst of energy you're hoping for!
