10 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms and Belly Shot!!

Hi guys! It's Rachel. Welcome back to my channel and today I'm here to do my 10 week pregnancy update. I hope you guys enjoy this video. Let me just go ahead and get straight into it. So, as far as the symptoms goes, I'm still having frequent urination. That's something that's never going to change, I don't think. I think it's actually going to increase. But yes, I still have frequent urination but I've gotten used to it so it's not that intolerable anymore. At first it was just really irritating because I was going to the bathroom constantly in the middle of the night. But now I'm going at least, I want to say 6 to 10 times so I've kind of gotten used to it. Also something new in this week is that I have been super duper drowsy so the fatigue has kicked in once again. It left I want to say a few weeks ago and now it's back full on so as soon as I wake up I'm pretty much tired throughout the day so I do rest a lot. I don't nap. I try not to at least just because school is starting back for me again and I want to train myself not to take too many naps just so I can have time to study and do other things. So instead of full blown napping which turns into sleeping, I've just been taking resting breaks where I would just lay in bed and watch a few videos on YouTube and stuff or watch a movie or whatnot and then I'll get up and I'll feel a little bit refreshed. Increase in hunger has not slowed down. Actually it's gotten a little bit worse. So you guys, it's really bad. I'm eating about every hour. I'm pretty sure I gained a few pounds. I'm pretty sure I gained a few pounds but I've been eating about every single hour. I haven't been eating as healthy as I want to and that's just because the healthy foods don't, like, they don't intrigue me. They don't make me want to eat it. I actually feel nauseated thinking about certain foods like salad just makes me want to puke. So that kind of sucks. I've been trying to throw in some fruits in there so hopefully that will help but I do see my midwife this Friday. I can't wait to share that experience with you guys. I hope it's a good one. I'm actually, as of right now or before making this video, I was writing some questions that I need to ask her. So if you want to see a video on what I'm going to ask my midwife, then let me know. Maybe I can give you guys a few ideas but that is something that I want to ask her about. The eating aspect just because I do want to eat healthy. You know, the baby is relying on me for nutrition and I feel like I'm eating just terribly. After I eat every meal, after every meal that I eat, I've been burping non-stop. It's so disgusting and my family gets so annoyed because they hate hearing it but I mean I can't help it. After every meal, I burp a lot and like sometimes a lot, well majority of the time, food comes back up and I get heartburn with it so it's really uncomfortable. Sorry if you hear the plane. I do live near an airline so I apologize for that but hurry up plane, hurry up. But yeah, so I do burp a lot, I do get heartburn a lot now after I eat no matter what it is and food comes up and it's just like ugh, it's so disgusting. This week, I've been hating my prenatal vitamins. I don't know why. Before I used to love them because they're like the chewy ones. I don't like them anymore. I like the taste, just like I hate eating them which is really shocking so when I go to see my midwife, I'm going to ask her maybe if she could prescribe me some or what not like different ones, maybe some pills will be easier for me to handle because there's no taste. I'm just swallowing it. Hopefully, they're tiny because I do not know how to swallow pills but yeah, I do not like the chewable ones anymore. I don't like the taste of them, well the flavor so yeah, my taste buds changed. What else do I want to tell you guys about? I do have an increase of discharge now and my hair on my body is growing super duper fast so my leg hair, my underarm hair is just non-stop growing. I've been shaving at least, I want to say every two to three days. I've never had to shave this much in my life so yeah, my hair is just non-stop growing. I do feel slight queasiness but not really. It kind of left. I only threw up, I'm going to say so far and it's probably going to say three or four times. I don't want to brag but that's really awesome but I have been feeling slight queasiness. Not that much, it's only if I'm super duper hungry and lately, I have been a lot hungrier so it's been one of those things where this week has been a week of me being a lot queasier just because I've been running a lot of errands with my mom and just trying to keep myself up and exercising and yeah, I'll get really hungry so that's something that's a little bit annoying just because I'm just always hungry. I'm never satisfied with food, I keep a full meal, like it could be filling you guys, like straight up filling and within an hour and a half, I'm like, you know, I'm hungry again. I feel like I'm growing a lot more but I feel like only I notice it, nobody else does in my opinion. I have been rubbing my belly a lot more, talking to the baby and doing a lot of research. I haven't done research before just because I was really worried about having a miscarriage early on so I didn't really want to do all of that but now that I'm in a 10 week, I've been super excited, I've been going to a lot of stores just looking at baby clothes and I've been so tempted to buy like little outfits like, you know, the little, like the yellow outfits that could go either way for boy or girl just because I'm just like excited, you know, I want to buy things like bottles and stuff, that stuff interests me. Which brings me to something else, maternity pants. I'm actually getting a pair tomorrow. I will be vlogging my experience looking for some so hopefully I get lucky. Yes, all of my jeans are really tight around the waist area and it's super uncomfortable at this point so I've been wearing a lot of leggings, skirts and whatnot so yeah, when I shave my belly, you're going to see me mish-mashing with the skirt on but yeah, I cannot do anything that's like too tight around my area so my boyfriend was like, hey, let's go get maternity jeans tomorrow and I'm like, oh my god, are you serious? I'm so excited. So yeah, I definitely will be showing you that in vlogging. I have intuition on what I'm having. I think I'm having a boy. I'm pretty sure I'm having a boy but I don't know, I'm not a psychic, you know. I'll be really excited if it's a girl. I know a lot of people are like, you know, it's whatever God gives you, as long as your child is healthy and yes, I do want a healthy child and I want that healthy child to most likely be a girl but, you know, because I'm a girl so it's like, you know, we can, you know, play Barbies together, dress up together. Like I've been looking at girl toys like, you know, the little fake kitchens and things like that. I just love little like girly toys, you know what I'm saying but if it's a boy, I'll be just as happy because boys are cheaper, okay? I'm just saying. They're a lot cheaper so I'm excited either way. I have boy name, I have a boy name and a girl name picked out so yes. I'm in love with the girl name and I think you guys will like it too. Like I said, in love. Not changing it. The boy name, I'm sort of in love with it, like I could still change it if I want to so if you have any boy names, let me know because I'm still in the process of like finalizing it. I mean like I have the name but if I see something better then I will change it, you know, but the girl name is like I'm in love. There's like no question about it so again, if you have any boy name options, leave them down below and maybe your name will be chosen but yeah, that's pretty much that. I'm really excited you guys. I mean I just can't wait. I feel like I put on a few pounds and I do want to talk to my midwife about exercising just because I was doing some research today like I was saying and people were saying that if you exercise, it will help the labor process and whatnot like you're getting your body prepared for all that it's going to go through during labor and I do want to have a vaginal birth. I really don't want to have to have a c-section so hopefully everything goes well with that and I don't think I mentioned this before but I do, I think I said I want a water birth. I don't know if I mentioned it. I do want a water birth. I would love to do it in like a birthing center. I may have a water birth in a hospital just because it's my first child and you just don't know but I think I'm leaning more towards a water birth at a birthing center and I want it to be natural. I don't want the epidural and so I do want to get my body prepared for all the pain I'm going to endure like I know for a fact I'm going to have some pain so I do want to try to exercise now just to get myself strong mentally, physically so that I can go through all of that but yeah I'm excited about the delivery. I'm not nervous whatsoever because I know it's really quick. I mean once it's done, it's done right? And then once you look at that face, it's like it's all worth it and it goes out the window. So I'm pretty sure that's going to happen to me but yeah I cannot wait to vlog tomorrow and show you guys you know the process of me buying maternity pants and looking at little cute little baby stuff. So that is pretty much it. I do want to do more videos as far as like the, I know there's like a telegender test and stuff like that. I want to do that. Me and my boyfriend are actually probably going to pick one up today so that's exciting and we're going to film it for you guys of course and vlog a lot and do all these cool things so that's exciting. But enough about me. I'm going to go into what's going on with the little baby. So let's go ahead and look at my app. So it says that my baby is now out of the embryo stage. I mentioned that in the last video. He is now a full blown fetus and that's really super duper exciting. It says that the baby's little fingers and toes are starting to separate and it also says if you're having a boy he is producing testosterone already so that's awesome. It says that the tip of your baby's nose has developed and that the baby weighs at this point about 14 ounces so I mean he is growing you guys. And then it says your baby is using it's hands to feel it's face and mouth practicing for coordination on the outside. That is so adorable it just warms my little heart. I forgot to mention with myself I've been a lot emotional so all the comments that you guys have been leaving like congrats and all that stuff it made me so emotional I was on the verge of crying. I'm like please stop. Please stop. Yes I've been crying. A lot. So let me go ahead and show you my belly you guys. So this is it from the front. Sorry for the minch matching bottom like I said I cannot do jeans anymore and this is me on the side and this is me on the other side so yes. So I'm truly excited about everything right now that's going on with me and the baby. Just my body and everything it's just such an amazing you know beautiful thing. Like I said I'm doing so much research I've been reading up on breastfeeding and just all these things. I do want to breastfeed. I do want to maybe use bottles as well and just all these things. I don't know you guys. I'm a first time mom you know so I'm doing all this research. So anyways you guys thanks so much for watching. Thank you for your beautiful love and support. I really do appreciate it. Make sure to give me some boy name options and look out for my vlog that most likely will be coming on tomorrow which will just feature me looking for maternity pants and all that cool stuff and maybe buying like the gender test and all that stuff. So I'm really excited. Let me know what you think I'm having. Do you think I'm having a boy or do you think I'm having a girl? I say boy but who knows. I could be wrong of course and again I will talk to you guys later. Bye everyone.
