Early morning is my favorite time of day so far. I wake up super early and remember that I'm pregnant. Immediately, a smile lights up my face and my heart flutters with happiness. And then, alas, I can't go back to sleep. Yes, me, the one who loves to sleep in and hates getting up early.
So, I get up and enjoy the quiet early morning hours. I read about the baby. I have a daily pregnancy journal that describes each day in the baby's development. It's so fun to read about the baby's heart that is pumping 65 times a minute and the tiny little limbs that are beginning to form right now.
The symptoms start to kick in later. Depending on the day, it could be by mid morning or afternoon/early evening. Thus far, it's just been mild cramping, mild nausea, mild heartburn and some crazy emotions. Every once in a while the hormones act up, and I feel a little emotional. But, so far the main thing that I'm experiencing with this pregnancy is joy!
It is amazing, no? I'm so ecstatic for you and happy to be experiencing this precious moment vicariously through you. :-)
