Week 10 · 1st trimesterHiding the tiredness from a 6-year-old + a scare

"Why is Mummy always sleeping?"

We still haven't told our daughter anything yet, but she is starting to wonder why I'm always sleeping. This week, I noticed a bit of spotting. I'm really trying to stay positive and hoping it's nothing serious, maybe just some late implantation bleeding. I need to keep myself from worrying too much until I can see my doctor again.

Weight-wise, there's no real change yet, but the extra hunger has officially kicked in. Just like my first pregnancy, I don't get morning sickness, which instead just makes me want to eat constantly. I really want to focus on clean, nourishing meals for the baby while keeping my own weight control in mind, but I'm also not going to be too hard on myself.
