I made it to 13 weeks so I thought it was time to start
blogging. While I’m not even halfway
done, this pregnancy has been an uncomfortable journey. I’m crossing my fingers that the rest of my
pregnancy will be uneventful and pain free.
My colon has decided that it doesn’t want to work properly,
which has made pregnancy very uncomfortable.
Having an extremely backed up colon causes all sorts of uncomfortable
problems, such as nausea, stomach pain, and over all feeling of blah. I thought I was having a terrible morning
sickness, turns out it was just my colon.
It took a while but my colon is finally functioning somewhat
properly and I’m feeling much better. I still
have stomach pain but it’s not the curl-up-in-the-fetal-position pain I was experiencing
before, it’s more like a punch in the stomach.
My stomach last week (12 weeks) was extremely swollen due to
colon issue:
