Weeks 8 & 9

I started feeling better during week 8. Although the nausea has subsided a bit (as long as I snack and eat 3 meals on time), I was tired this week. I went to bed at 7:00 p.m. one night!

I hit 9 weeks on Thursday, July 12th and am continuing to feel better, but I still have different symptoms each week. I'm also having very vivid dreams. My book says this is due to my increased hormone levels. Isn't that strange? I have the craziest dreams about family, friends and work and I remember all of it because I wake up a lot during the night. Sometimes the dreams are so vivid that I wake up exhausted because I feel like I've actually lived through the dream.

Smells get to me too; they don't make me physically sick, but they are so strong! There are some things I just can't stand like the smell of biscuits and strong spices. I know there are others but I can't think of them just now.
