Hi All,

I've been lurking these last two weeks, not wanting to post in case of something unspeakable. But today I was hit with the worst case of all day sickness and thought- oh wow- I am really pregnant! This is so exciting!

The last two weeks I have felt great- a little sore with enlarged breasts, some afternoon headaches and super sensitive to smells, but the discomfort has been minor. I think it helped I had been on vacation in Mexico sleeping, surfing and de-stressing when I found out.

Now that I am back to work, the noise bothers me, the smells bother me, the people bother me- and I feel tired all the time. Last night the heat bothered me. I could sleep all day if that was possible!

I have no desire to eat (oh my goodness- 71 grams of protein a day?!) Just the thought of food puts my stomach off! I feel blessed I am keeping down my pre-natal supplements and a little lemonaide.

This little bean seems to like avocado- one or two spoonfuls- and hates dairy (we only eat organic, so the rejection seems harsh!) I'm 6/7 weeks- not sure yet... does this usually start this early, and how much longer does this sensitive stomach go on for??

yeah, it sounds like you're pretty normal. If you're lucky, it should be tailing off between 10 and 14 weeks- if not, you could still be feeling crap in February. Every pregnancy is different.

Congrats!!! And yeah you sound pretty normal to me. I started to get sick just after 6 weeks, not fun. I am sooo looking forward to the end of this part of the pregnancy.
