Journal: First Trimester Survival

didn't think I'd be here again tbh

When I got pregnant with Liam, I was 27 and knew absolutely nothing about pregnancy aside from the experiences a couple of my friends had had. I felt gross for a few weeks but then eventually everything was really easy.

When I got pregnant with Char, I was three years older and was nauseous for the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. Once the 20 week mark hit, my nausea turned to stress and I can’t remember if I was nauseous after that (one benefit of a stressful pregnancy I guess? lol) I promised myself that if I were to get pregnant again, I would go on nausea medication because I wouldn’t want to go through that again.

Well, fast forward 3.5 years and I’m just coming out of my first trimester, having battled quite intense nausea and fatigue for the last three months. Yes still, I’m not on medication.
