Couch potato Vent

Erinm278

I'm spending my day on the couch nursing my cankles and sausage toes. I went to the mall and couldn't even go to all the stores I had planned on because my feet are so swollen I thought they might explode. On a side note, I couldn't find a single thing at motherhood that I liked for my shower. I guess I'll be trying Target tomorrow when I get my energy back again.
I went to the mall and all I bought was nipple cream. How sad is that?

I guess it's going to be A/C and TV for me today. I'm not used to this relaxing thing..

Haha story of my life.

I'm always a couch potato. 

Are you looking for a maxi dress? I got mine at old navy, it's not maternity but it has an empire waist and was $15.. I looked everywhere!

I had the same thing happen to me today.  I had so many goals and then I went to two stores and had to go home to lay down.  My feet are so swollen and I want to clean my house and work on the babies' room but at this rate I'm thinking it is going to be a lay on the couch kind of day.  I started crying last weekend because I was putting too much pressure on myself to do things.  I just keep making lists and had to realize at this point I need to start asking for help.

I'm now sitting under an umbrella at my moms pool. It's so hot...I couldn't sit in the sun any longer. My ankles are starting to swell, uhhh.

I just got back from Target, and was supposed to go to a birthday party, but when DH mentioned it was outside, I burst into tears. I just almost passed out from the heat walking 2 blocks to our apt; there is no way I can go stand around a beer garden for the next 2 hours. I'm currently on the couch, literally sitting in front of the A/C.

I know I'm just feeling sorry for myself but its really hard for me to admit that I can't do things anymore. I'm trying to take it easy but I'm a serious busy body and I feel like a lazy bum.

I know, there's so many things I'd like to be doing, but I just can't find the energy most of the time, and when I do, I feel physically drained halfway through. Gah!

This. Totally. And even though DH has been good all pregnancy, I don't think he gets it that when I say, "I'm tired, I can't" it's LITERAL. It's not "I don't want to," I'm just physically incapable.
