We had a rough morning. H is still gone and he had been getting up with DS in the morning. DS was up twice last night and up for the day at 5:45 which is really early for him (and me). I brought him into our bed since I thought he would go back to sleep but no dice. He kept moving and sitting up. I told him to lay down and he flopped down and smashed his head into my nose. It was an accident but I had a legit breakdown. Between the hormones and fatigue of first trimester I just couldn’t handle it. I put him back in his crib and just cried in my bed while he cried in his. I have no possibility of a nap today and have to pick up DS early from MIL and drive 1h15min to pick up H this afternoon. I can’t even rest tomorrow because I have my glucose test early and have to stay in the parking lot there for 3+ hours since I can’t leave but I can’t stay inside because of stupid COVID. I’m just so tired.
Sorry for being the Debbie downer. It’s times like this where I don’t understand the people that say “I love being pregnant!”. For me, I don’t love it and I’m really struggling. Normally I would be able to handle night wake ups and an early wake up but today it just feels impossible.
I am grateful that my MIL can watch DS for a half day so I can at least work without also having to care for him.
@moguippy Hang in there! We all have hormonal days. Take a good book with you tomorrow, and maybe you'll nod off a bit. When does your DH come back? Put him on alert that you get a nap when he's back!
Earth Mama Belly Butter & the Oil! Totally natural & super affordable! I have extremely dry (like I have eczema dry) skin & only need the Belly Butter once daily it's so moisturizing!
Anyone want to do a monthly book club? I need to get back into reading more good books !
Haha I would love to talk about books, I'm already in two book clubs though so I'm not sure I can read any more 🙈 I would love to share what I've been reading and maybe do some buddy reads with you though
I’ll make a post and we can try and throw some book ideas in. I don’t mind if it’s only a couple of people, I just need accountability for keeping up with it!
I’ve been super absent but I’ve been lurking. Almost 12 weeks and I’m still feeling all the nausea + fatigue. Asked MH to run into Walmart so I could stay with the kids in the car and I definitely think he got the better end of the deal.
