Hello fellow bumpers! I wanted to create a space for us all to share our experiences as we navigate these trimesters together and boy, is there a lot to unravel! This ride seems like an exciting yet challenging adventure and I'm keen to hear everyone's unique stories and journeys. We're currently in the early stages, which feel exhilarating and scary all at once! Symptom spotting and those early worries - anyone else freaked out by every twinge and sensation?! I guess it's a sign of how much we already love our little beans!
I'll go first! I'm 8 weeks along today and have had a pretty easy ride so far, thank goodness. The exhaustion hit me like a ton of bricks at around week 6 but seems to be lifting now. My breasts are SO sore - it's crazy! Also, food cravings and aversions have been interesting; I cannot stand the smell of coffee right now which is a first! Has anyone else experienced this? I feel like a complete oddball!
This pregnancy was a surprise but a welcomed one and I'm excited to share this journey with you all. Let's get bumped!
