I am starting to feel so tired! I only work about 4 1/2 hours a day now but I finish work at lunchtime feeling completely exhausted. Could this be one of my first pregnancy symptoms? I am officially over 5 weeks now and the time is dragging. I just desperately want to see our baby in that grainy screen and know that everything is okay. I know that time isn't far away but I wasn't built for waiting for ANYTHING!
In the mean time, I have been reading lots of books and two I highly recommend are:
The Rough Guide to Pregnancy and Birth
Expecting: Everything You Need to Know about Pregnancy, Labour and Birth
I figure I may get through about 10 of the 100's of pregnancy books out there right now! I love to know what is going on week by week and currently in week 5, the baby looks well...sorta of like a seahorse?
This week the 'baby' (unsure whether to call it this yet) starts to have a heartbeart and the organs start forming. I believe that it's also the size of an apple pip...so REALLLLLY small! The beginnings of the brain are forming as well as the nervous and reproductive systems.
I can't wait until I have a bump-I already have a little one but I believe that is the cupcakes taking their toll on me. I imagine I will be one of those annoying women who take a picture of their bump every month! It's a good job we had no summer holiday booked (we plan to save as much money as possible!) as I probably wouldn't be able to fly. However our holiday in Berlin next month will be a little last burst of freedom!
I just can't wait to hold our baby in my arms.
xoxo
