Twenty weeks. Twenty weeks, people. Halfway there. Only two more days (two! more! days!!!!) until I find out if this kiddo is a boy or a girl. But I’m so tired, I almost can’t even get excited. (Ok, that’s a lie. But I am. SO. tired.)
And I’m only halfway there! How am I gonna make it through the rest of this pregnancy? I got very little rest on vacation, thanks to the kids sleeping in the same room with us (Sophie at 3 a.m.: “What? Mommy, Daddy, and Joshua are ALL HERE? Let’s PARTY! Let’s jump on some air mattresses or poop our pants or something!) and a schedule of family fun. And now I seriously feel like I got hit by a TRUCK. Tonight a friend of mine stopped by about 8:15 and said, “Wow, you look like you are feeling really bad.”
I had a look in the mirror. I couldn’t argue.
All you lovely ladies who just loooove being pregnant, who feel so GREAT during the 2nd trimester, I don’t get you. Oh how I wish I did.
Twenty more weeks. Crossing my fingers for nineteen. And maybe a little rest between now and then.
Sorry that you’re tired. I have been, too…but I’m blaming it on the 3 other kids not in mah belly!
Also? TWO!MORE!DAYS!!!!!!!!! Squee!!!!!!
Oh, Jenny…I feel for you. I am soooo not a good pregnant person either. I really don’t understand those women that say they felt like a million bucks while pregnant. WHAT THE…..?!? Who ARE these people!! Crazies, I tell ya! We are actually taking some EXTRA precautions lately. Your little “surprise” has woken me up to the possibility the NO ONE is immune. And, not that I don’t want to end up like you….well, yeah. That’s it actually….I REALLY don’t want to end up like you!! haha! Sorry, hon! God bless the babies, but I’ve had mine, and I am soooo done. I really hope you are feeling better soon. Have you felt movement yet? Maybe that and knowing which ‘flavor’ is coming out will help take the edge off soon. I know it’s not much. But, I can always come cook for you sometime. That is something I’m actually good at, so don’t hesitate to call me if you have a taste for something but don’t have the energy to make it. Or I can always help stock your freezer for later. I’m terrible with the cleaning, but good in the kitchen. Let me know if you desire my services.
I’ve never understood those glowing pregnant women who say they’ve never felt better. I felt like something was sucking my life force. I have never felt a tired like that – and the fact that I was that tired and couldn’t sleep? Cruel. Hope your next 20 weeks are pretty good and you get some sleep!
I’m with ya girl. that’s why I let some chinese lady have my third!
Three months dreary, three months cheery, three months weary!
