29-6-2009 - Week 9

My mood while writing this blog: Fine & dandy!

Well, we've made it to week 9. Every new week seems like a hurdle I have jumped and conquered. I'm in an exeptional mood today for some reason, and as you all know, during pregnancy any change is a cause for concern! Up until now I have been feeling quite down, and not my usual happy self. I think I've been filled with so much trepidation that it's just dampened my whole mood lately.

I'm really hungry at the moment. I have been snacking all day; and although I've been REALLY good eating fruit, health bars, salad roll for lunch......... my friend on Twitter mentioned that he baked a chocolate cake and that was it! I HAD to have a piece of chocolate cake! I'm at work, so it's into the car I go and off to the shops to get some. I tell ya, it was GOOOD. Normally after eating lunch, fruit and then a slice of cake I would be feeling pretty stuffed, but for some reason I feel fine.

I have no signs of morning sickness at all. None. I wish I were sick, because although being sick is horrible it's also reassuring! My boobs are a little tender. I'm sure some of you are feeling a little pot belly coming on, but as I'm a chubby girl, all I feel is fatter. I've been having some fleeting cramps in my tummy. Fingers crossed that it's just growing pains.

I've been very tired, but as I've been getting 9 to 10 hours sleep a night, It's not effecting things much. I've been more lazy than anything, not wanting to cook dinner when I get home, or do the housework on the weekend. I don't think my house has ever been so dusty!! The poor dog hasn't been walked in days!

I'm finding it so hard to concentrate on ANYTHING, especially at work, but I think that's mostly because I can't think of anything other than the baby growing inside me!

Hoping and praying for a sticky, sticky baby!! Hang in there champ, and hold on tight!

Love Tanya.
