Weeks 9 & 10

I'm not doing very well with my goal to take a belly picture every week.

Or even blog.

Weeks 9 & 10 were rough.  My fatigue is through the roof.  My morning sickness is persistent, showing no signs of going away.  I've had some issues.  Things are looking up, albeit veeeerrrrry slowly.  I see light at the end of the tunnel - the twelve week mark is fast-approaching!  Usually that brings a lot of relief with it.

I had my first Braxton Hicks this past week.  I already have heartburn.  I already have pelvic pain.  I already have sciatic pain.  It's unreal how quickly this is all happening the third time around.

A friend who is in practically the same position as me (pregnant and her youngest two will also be 17 months apart) told me this week that her doctor said when your body only has 7 or so months of rest between pregnancies, it's no wonder things happen at warp speed.  Your body hasn't even gotten over the last pregnancy and you've already hopped right into a new one.  Right.  I guess that makes sense.  

At least this next week we'll hear a heartbeat!  Can't wait for Wednesday!

I'll have a week 11 picture in a day or two.  I hope.  :)
