first trimester whining!

[luv2bmommy]

hello ladies! just checking in to see how everyone is feeling and to do a little bit of whining while im at it. feel free to join in!
well first of all, im about to tear my nose off, i would be so much better without having to smell anything! i used to sing that "food, glorious food" song all day, and now i hate food. the smell of it immediately triggers gagging. no throwing up yet though. and also, my DH will not stop smoking, and never before did i realize how disgusting that smell is. and his cologne, he never gets dressed without putting it on and i cant just ask him to quit smelling good because its like a priority of his but dang!
does anyone else have a problem with DH smoking? im going to have a more serious talk with him about it, for one, because he needs to quit anyway, our car smells soooo bad. i was a smoker until i found out we were expecting but now i have quit for good, not judging anyone who does of course because i just quit myself but i guess it a thing where you have to be a non-smoker to truly be able to smell how bad it is for you. lol if that makes any sense.
oh and has anyone gotten flu vaccines? im wondering which way to go on that, i have a friend who freaks out on me at the mention of any vaccine for me or my children and swore up and down i would be doing my baby an injustice by getting it but i dont know, i dont want to take a chance and get the flu while im pregnant. i mean, wouldnt that outweigh any possible side effects of getting the flu shot? and what about swine flu? where i live (southeast texas) there have been many cases.

I love this chat!!!!!   LOL  I am totally with yous on the vaccines, I feel they are all way to new to know the overall outcome they will have on our babies or our babies babies for that matter!  Smells, I thought I was to early on, until I went to open a pkg of hamburger this past weekend. HA, thought I was gonna lose it all over the kitchen!  Great job on the smoking, Baby thanks you!  Boobs are a little sore, no bigger yet, although I was already a D (yes, willing to admit)  husband has never stopped grabbing them!  I think he is learning, though now is NOT a good time! LOL  Trick...  (must be VERNORS) Ginger Ale is a God Send for pregnancy and anytime you have the flu bug our family calls it "sick pop"  
Question...  Have any of you told anyone yet? Friends and Fam?  We are thinking of waiting to at leat 8 wks, but dont know if I can contain our excitement?

aww lol that kinda sounds like my husband. even worse, instead of taking my mood swings seriously, very seriously, he just laughs like im an over-worked child. im like you when it comes to clothes too, didnt think id already have problems fitting in mine but i do. all i wear is my yoga pants and honestly i could care less what i look like. i hope you start feeling better soon, have you tried any little "tricks" yet? ive been meaning to go get some ginger, but havent yet. when i get to the doctor im wimping out and asking if they have anything for it. well we will feel better soon! i know it, hang in there!

I'm definitely worried about looking like Pamela Anderson too!!!  I started with an "almost D cup" (meaning I wear a C, but should really wear a D, but I'm in denial).  And now I'm already a cup size bigger, and not even 8 weeks!  This is not boding well!!!

i'll whine with you!! i feel disgusting....absolutley horrible...every smell or even looking at food makes me gag....i dry heave trying to get out of bed every morning. this week i have a ton of little cramps that make me want to puke even more and i had a painful bout of diarrhea yesterday which was fun. my boobs are huge already and heavy which is stupid becuz my boobs were already big to begin with...im probably gonna look like pamela anderson by the end of this preg. i am so so so tired of feeling ill....i never imagined pregnancy would make you feel this yucky. and im frusterated because my clothes are starting to not fit right so its making it difficult to pick out something to wear in the mornings and all my man can say is "honey can i do anything for you?" yeah babe you can put this little punk in your belly for a while!! the most annoying part is he thinks pregnancy is so stressful because he has to get all the financials in order and remake a life plan blah blah blah but seriously who does he think he is whining about how stressed out he is to me....i mean really??? if he carries the baby...then he can whine. he says that im being a little ridiculous when i tell him not to wiggle the bed in the morning when i feel like im gonna puke he just sighs and says...."you always feel like your gonna puke" well no **** honey....im pregnant!! lol i am not having a fun time of it obviously....when will the 1st trimester be over?????!!! aaaaah!

[bluegenie2003]

Me too!!  DH keeps saying he thinks it will show up, but I'm crossing my fingers!!!

[luv2bmommy]

so glad you are both feeling well! i hope it doesnt come for you bluegenie! you dont want it!

I plan on getting both the normal flu and swine flu vaccines.   I'm at a higher risk for both of them even without being pregnant, since I have a heart condition and a pacemaker, so not getting them doesn't seem like a real good option for me.  The benefits definitely outweigh the risks.  
I think I've been lucky so far with the lack of morning sickness. I had a few days a couple weeks ago with some slight nausea, but nothing since then.  Just TIRED! ALL of the time! I keep waiting for the nausea to hit though!

I agree with your friend about vaccines.  I feel our body, if kept mentally and physically fit by exercising and eating healthy will keep us well.  May God Bless You!

I also quit smoking when I found out I was pregnant.  DH does not smoke which is good.  I plan on getting the flu shot next month.  Per my dr, its ok to get that shot while preggers.
