I tried to come up with something clever for the post title. Pretty creative, eh?
Mostly I just want to sit down and record/vent about what's going on. With my pregnancy, that is.
First of all, who's idea was it to make pregnant women edgy? For someone like me, going from perfectly pleasant and able to get along with everyone to edgy and easily bothered is irritating. I don't mean to make people think I don't have the time or that I couldn't care less, my pregnant blood just boils at an unusually high temperature.
Next on the list, eating. I'm not hungry but I'm nauseous. I'm hungry but nothing sounds good. I'm not hungry but I know I need to eat. I'm hungry but what I want to eat isn't the best choice. Yadda yadda yadda. Hook me up to an IV.
Lastly, fatigue. Shouldn't there be a rule that if you already have a child to take care of your pregnancy won't wipe you out? Poor Teryn. I've been feeling like I've been run over by a train for the past week. I went to my doctor's office and had my blood checked yesterday because I had a feeling my thyroid was (is) freaking out again. It is. They changed my prescription and I hope it gets me back up on my feet. I have a little boy to take care of.
Speaking of fatigue, I was just ordered by the husband to take a nap. When Teryn sleeps I should sleep, he says. The problem is, I feel like I need 6 hours of sleep. There's no time for that. I'd just rather not sleep at all.
Maybe I should add "irrationality" to my list.
AMEN. To EVERYTHING. Seriously- I have been hating the world off and on for four months now. It's just not fair to do that to someone who is gearing up for a HUGE life change. (Or their husbands, friends, children, etc.)
ReplyDeleteAnd the eating! Why does it have to be so hard?! Why can't healthy food just sound good all the time?
Not to mention the thyroid which, as we know, can throw it all off balance.
PS Let's be neighbors someday.
Fatigue was my problem when I was pregnant. I always thought "If I had a toddler to take care of I don't know how I would do it." Because all I wanted to do was sleep!
ReplyDeleteProps to you Momma's who are doing it!
Seriously! I felt so badly for Taylor when I was pregnant with Cohen because all I wanted to do was sleep, and when I wasn't sleeping I was in the bathroom throwing up. Not easy, that pregnant stuff.
ReplyDeletetotally understand and I say boo!! good thing babies are so cute.. on Sunday I asked Brandon if he would be soo horribly sad if we didn't have anymore.. seriously I did.. my brother in law said you never make decisions about how many children you will have when you are pregant and especially the icky parts of the pregnancy!
