Week 5, Day 1

I stopped drinking Diet Pepsi and anything containing aspartame or saccharine on Wednesday. For two days straight I had huge headaches and of course I can't take anything for them.

I opted for a homeopathic headache remedy that can be taken every 30 minutes. It worked fairly well and I was pleased! Headaches plagued me mercilessly my first pregnancy and I will NOT have them dominate this pregnancy like they did last.

I have also sworn to myself I won't gain the 60 lbs of my last pregnancy. As God as my witness, I will moderate this better by eating more sensibly. Since this is 90% out of my control, I'll do what I can but I am pretty afraid.
