Now I am at 10 weeks and I am more tired than ever. What I have read on the internet says that morning sickness should be winding down but I am unable to tell. I still feel the same morning sickness if not a bit worse than a few weeks ago. I still have not thrown up even once for this pregnancy but I always seem to feel like I could at an moment. Nothing really seems to help except just trying not to think about it. I am always tired. Before week 8, I was doing pretty good at keeping up with my exercise such as playing with our Wii system. But right about the time week 8 hit me, I have been feeling exhausted even when I am sitting down. I feel a light cramping in my uterus every once in a while that isn't even as severe as a PMS cramp for me but feels kinda similar. I can still wear some of my jeans but they are beginning to feel not necessarily tight but uncomfortable nonetheless. Mostly I have been wearing drawstring britches.
I found some wonderful pants at Walmart by Danskin. The fabric of the pants themselves are not real stretchy, they are more like dress pant material but they are really soft. The top is wide band and drawstring which makes them ideal for a growing tummy. At the knees are zippers that when opened allow the pants to become shorts. They fit great, they allow for a growing tummy, they don't look like sweat pants or pajama pants so they are great to wear in public, and they convert to shorts which will really make them ideal to wear throughout my entire pregnancy and for as long as I want after. The only unfortunate thing is that I can only find my size in one color, brown.There are other colors out there, but I just can't find them in my size at the store.
Other than that, I have really nothing new to report. My next appointment is one week before Christmas. I am hoping we will be able to hear the heartbeat via doppler when we go in. My husband had been really great for this whole thing. He likes to read online about the week-to-week progress of our little bundle of joy. Just last night I showed him how to set up the pregnancy.com website that calculates your week-to-week based upon your due date. I know he his going to be a great dad if for no other reason than because he cares so much.
I am so glad to be blessed so abundantly. When this baby is born, God will have fulfilled every true desire of my heart. I will have everything I ever wanted.
