Today I cried after a hair cut because the person left it unstyled so I would know what it looks like with zero effort since I told her I don’t have the energy for self care right now. But then I just looked at my hair that I was hoping would leave me feeling pretty for the first time in weeks and was so defeated. I managed to hold on to the tears till I got home at least.
@pinkkillersheep reading that almost made me cry! Im sorry it didn’t leave you feeling good.
My family. No one will leave me alone and I’m so burned out. A break down today is imminent. All I wanted this morning was to take a shower before logging into work and even though I was up for two hours before they left for daycare/school I still couldn’t shower. I’m feeling defeated.
I watched this video from Motherly about being a mom during the pandemic and I full on sobbed. My husband was so confused when I suddenly started crying last night in bed.
I had to reschedule my anatomy scan because my healthcare facility is not allowing visitors due to the COVID surge. That meant my partner wouldn’t be able to attend. AND they wouldn’t allowed FaceTime either. So I rescheduled it for a week and half out in hopes that the policy changes. I was really looking forward to seeing baby, for weeks! As soon as I hung up, I broke down crying. Extreme sadness kicked in. Inconsolable to the point that my partner had to schedule an exam with a third party. Hormones are so weird.
@covyes I went to my anatomy scan alone. It made me sad, but I was ready to make sure the baby was okay. I got to get a flash drive of all the pics to show my husband. I wish they would at least allow video chat.
The book I read on the plane yesterday had a pre-teen girl losing her beloved mother and I just sat there and wept. I almost never cry so all these pregnancy emotions are very foreign.
Ok everyone else has good reasons to cry. I cried because I wanted Chick-fil-a yesterday and they’re closed on Sundays. I also cried because my boyfriend was going to a super bowl party and even though I said I didn’t want to go (and I really didn’t) I was mad that he went without me.
I crave sweets nonstop! Cake, cupcakes, donuts, chocolates… you name it! I told myself I wouldn’t eat sweets during pregnancy to avoid getting GD, but that’s been out the window.

Re: What My Pregnant Self is Craving/Crying About - February
I'm craving sour gummies so bad... I'm vegetarian and I don't know where to get any vegetarian friendly ones but I need some asap.
@ournextadventure do you have a Trader Joe’s near you? Their sour T & J gummies are vegan
