weeks 7 - 12

Morning sickness (7 weeks, 3 days on December 22), sore nipples, light-headedness, weakness, small cramps in abdomen, sensitivity to smells, lack of appetite, food aversions, excess saliva. Wow, talk about BAM you're pregnant. Uterus is felt by midwife, but I can't feel any changes yet.

week 6

Slight nausea, similar to motion sickness, some food aversions.

weeks 4-5

Missed period. Pregnancy discovered on November 30. No symptoms. Bigger appetite than usual and hungrier more often. For some reason, I adore the smell and taste of jalapenos.

weeks 1-3

Completely and blissfully unaware of the growing life inside of me.
