Energy in Pregnancy

I finally started to get some energy back yesterday. I didn't wake up until 11:45, but when I did wake up, I went crazy. Hubby and I cleaned the whole apartment, and I mean really cleaned it, did all of the laundry, went grocery shopping, made dinner (for last night AND for some of this week) and even had a few hours to relax and watch The Emperor's New Groove on Netflix. I ate an entire meal AND I wanted snacks later on. Oh! And we went to Fini's and got ice cream cones. :]

I woke up just after 10 this morning and after drinking some water, I did light yoga for the first time in months. My muscles and bones creaked and moaned and I realized that I have GOT to keep my body healthy through this pregnancy. I know that I'm supposed to be tired and useless during the first trimester, but I can only allow that to go on for so long before I lose my mind. Kind of like I did yesterday.

Tim and I had a very, very silly argument. (Totally my fault.) I ended up throwing something across the room and breaking down into heaving sobs while trying to put the dishes away. Neither of us knew what to do. I've never thrown a hissy fit like that before. I was seriously a hormonal mess. Tim did a very good job handling it, thank the Goddess. If he lost his shit too, I'm pretty sure one of us would be dead and it wouldn't be me.

But yeah, I'm going to start being more active. I'd like to get a prenatal yoga dvd and start taking more walks while the weather is still nice. It's just hard living on a super busy street when we're not near any neighborhoods or sidewalks. Maybe we'll drive to one nearby so we can start walking. I love living here, it's just occasionally inconvenient.

That's all I've got really. Baby is just over 8 weeks, our appointment to hear the heartbeat is 2 weeks from today. Hopefully it flies by, and hopefully everything is good with the little one. :]

Toodles!
