Nausea and a whole lot of Pregnancy

So, im having food aversions to absolute everything! I cant stand to eat anything and im forcing myself to eat. Ive not Vomited at all which im happy about. I dont fancy any food and the thought of eating turns my stomach. But I have hunger pains. Its not a pleasant feeling lol.

Smoking! In the first stage between ovulation and conceiving I smoked so much! more than I would have had ever before. ( I smoked maybe 5-10 a day) Its bad I know but I was so anxious it kinda helped.
When I got my BFP I cut down to maybe 3 a day, some days 1 and other days 0. Im finding it difficult to stop completely. My OH has stopped completely! He's a lot stronger than me and pretty darn good in the supportive department.

My doc or midwife doesn't want to see me until the 14th Dec when I will then be 8/9 weeks. Im a little pissed about it as I feel We pregnant ladies need a little guidance and reassurance even if it is our second, third, forth, FITH pregnancy.

Also Ive have tiredness for the last week or so. but not as bad as my first pregnancy, where id fall asleep at work sitting up! But it is still early days...

Tender boobies. Thats started about 2 days ago. I was worried as I had read other ladies had started to feel it earlier than I did. But oh god Its arrived! My OH forgets and puts his arm around me at night in bed and of course Im squealing with the shock of pain (MEN!).

Argh. No energy! I don't drive so have to walk to pick my son up from school today. Its only about a 25 min walk there but a hefty 45 min walk back with his little legs. I don't feel like walking anywhere! Lol.

Im one mean mood swing machine. My temper is TERRIBLE. Alot of the time im angry for no reason. (I must start sleeping on the other side of the bed) and I even wept at a local club now doing Zumba classes. What the hell is that about? TV, thats been the most successful in bring on the tears..

Constantly thinking about what to expect next and what the bean inside is doing/looks/how developed like is driving me insane. I need to do something to take my mind off it. Im forever surfing the web at different sites and reading the same thing.
