So my body decided to crash... Season change is hitting us and the fibromyalgia is acting up.. This morning I could barely move.. Being pregnant means that I can't take any of my pain killers that work for me..
And as if this morning wasn't bad enough - my body reacted to this new bread I had for breakfast.. It's supposed to be very healthy- high fiber, sourdough bread.. And I just had to run to the bathroom and everything came up.. This was so much worse than any purging experience of my life...
This was around 2 hours ago.. I just looked in the mirror and my face is covered by red dots... You know when you have been purging really badly and you get the red dots over your eyes??? My whole fucking face is covered with it...
I really hope my face looks better by the time hubby gets home - cause if it looks like this by the time he gets home, he will panic.. *sigh*
And today.. I got on the scale.. And I am gaining.. I know I know - I HAVE to.. It's normal.. I am 6 months pregnant .. I lost around 15 lbs since I got pregnant.. I have gained 3 lbs during the last 2,5 weeks. Again I know.. It is normal to gain.. But it really freaked me out.. But I wasn't ready for it.. You know..
I know I was worried before about not gaining and keep losing weight.. But.. Today.. It was just too much..
Anyways.. Hope you guys are feeling better than I am..
<3
Awww...sorry you are feeling crappy. The gain is normal. It will be okay. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteoh no! I hope you feel better soon hun. Try not to think about the weight- it's all good and healthy. You just take good care of yourself and your darling bubba! xxx
ReplyDeleteHang in there Kitty
ReplyDeleteAt the end of this you will have a beautiful, healthy baby who you will love more than life itself
Love to you x
Poor girl!! Feel better soon
ReplyDeleteSorry you're feeling like that, but I hope it will get better, soon... At least you know your gain is actually something beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteTake care
Your healthy baby is growing yay!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon.
Lots of love your way!
Aw, feel better!
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you're gaining a little- and I know it seems like a long time, but you only have to deal with it for about 3 more months. Hang in there!
As for the vomiting thing, isn't it weird how actual vomiting is so much worse than purging? It's because of the nausea, I think. Who knows why your body decided it didn't want the fiber bread. Being pregnant causes all sorts of weird things to happen. :)
Yay for your little one, boo to throwing up :( gaining is healthy and normal for six months. Just keep reminding yourself it's to ensure your baby will be strong and healthy. Congrats, an exciting (but challenging) time. I hope your fm stops nothing you soon.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Emily anon, it's te nausea that makes it so much worse.
