All I can do this pregnancy is eat and drink. I am constantly hungry and thirsty, oh yeah, and exhausted.
I continue to have a tiny bit of spotting here and there, but nothing that has alarmed me. I don’t have any cramping or pain or anything, and since I really am riddled with symptoms, I am assuming everything is going well.
This week was probably not any busier than other weeks, but it really felt full and I can’t decide if it’s a blessing that I am so busy (does it distract me from feeling tired? hungry? thirsty?) or a curse….maybe a nap every day would really help?
I have been catching little catnaps when I can…if I’m not careful, some people may suspect my condition, but I really can’t think about that right now.
I have been eating so much food at such a ravenous pace, that I worried I had already gained weight, but I checked and I am right where I usually am, so that’s good. I really concentrated on exercising last week, getting in my crunches, squats and kegals, because I really want to do all the work now so that it is easier to bounce back. Having a baby in my 30′s is bound to be different than my 20′s, so I am not assuming anything.
The girls remain clueless….Jason and I have talked about it a little in front of them, but in code. The other night I came home, laid on the bed and fell asleep without changing my clothes or anything. Phoebe came in, rubbed my feet and said: Wow Mom, that PTA meeting really wore you out.
Yup, that’s what it was. ; )
