I’ll talk about my experiences during the first trimester of my pregnancy. I hope that this can inspire and give comfort to mothers and mothers-to-be.
Bigger and Tender Breasts
This symptom is something I saw around the 3rd week of my pregnancy. I still didn’t know I was pregnant during this time.
Morning Sickness
I had mild nausea for a whole day in the 6th to 10th week of my pregnancy. This was worse at night. In the middle of the day, I had indigestion. It became worse at night than in the morning because I experienced indigestion and nausea at the same time.
Tiredness
In the middle of the afternoon, I experienced fatigue. This made me want to nap as early as 11 am. Fortunately, my schedule wasn’t a problem with my napping. So, I woke up feeling refreshed.
Hard Time Sleeping
After a few weeks when I found out I was pregnant, I could fall asleep instantly. But I would also end up waking up 3 to 4 times every night.
Peeing
Halfway through my first trimester, I had the urge to pee more often. But, when I tried to pee, almost nothing came out.
