WTF Is Happening To My Body: Weeks 8-11

In this episode, I dive into what the f*ck is happening to my body during weeks 8-11 (which are always the hardest weeks for me) during my third pregnancy. I cover every detail from eating every possible second to avoid nausea, to extreme pregnancy exhaustion, to starting Zofran and it changing my life, to experiencing constipation from said medication. I talk about the relief of finally being able to announce my pregnancy, the insane amount of time that pregnant women have to spend at the doctor’s office, and overall not feeling my best during these difficult weeks of the first trimester.

Key Takeaway / Points: 

• Pregnancy exhaustion and intense naps

• Surviving on saltine crackers and sour candy, coffee aversions, & body shakes

• How taking Zofran saved me from my nausea

• Details around announcing my pregnancy

• Difficulty keeping up with hygiene, self-care, and no longer fitting in my clothes

• The conflicting emotions of feeling gratitude while also struggling during pregnancy
