6 Week Bumpdate

So, I got my first ultrasound at 5w6d and it dated perfectly. The next day began my 6th week of pregnancy. I honestly didn't even really feel that pregnant. I mean, I could "feel" that there was a little bean inside of me but physically I just felt normal. I took pictures, but the dress was a little too sheer! Oops! So I don't think I'll be sharing those without some retouching. You can only see my hip and a bit of my buttcheek from the side, but it's enough to bother me. Thank Gods for Photoshop!

 Then at 6w3d nausea hit. At first just a few small waves but by the afternoon it was a glaringly constant feeling like I was going to vomit my brains out any second, but every second. I also felt so tired that day, and ended up sleeping 11 hours which is unusual for me. When I woke up the next day, my belly was definitely bloated (although I don't feel bloated at all!) and poking out. As soon as I woke up the nausea began again, and hasn't gone away since. I'm still really tired, every day. I have no energy physically but mentally I feel like I'm nesting...there's so much I want to do. Which is weird because with Maire's pregnancy I never felt the urge to nest at all. I'm just so excited, I can't wait to see what tomorrow, the beginning of week 7, will bring.
