So I was 7 weeks pregnant yesterday. Time is absolutely CRAWLING. I’ve been feeling sick a lot lately and when I’m not feeling sick I’m usually exhausted so my poor boys have been stuck in the house with me while I lie around and get up when they need me. It’s so brutal. And I seem to remember this not really going away completely until around the 16 week mark with both my previous pregnancies. I’m really hoping this time is different but it feels very familiar. I’m usually a cheerful, upbeat person but when I feel like this and know it could go on for another 2 months or even LONGER it just makes me feel blah and like I don’t really want to do anything. My doctor told me to experiment with the diclectin and depending on how many I take I’m probably going to be either a little too tired or a little sick sometimes. Lovely. This stage of pregnancy is just completely awful. I do stuff I need to do when I feel well but otherwise I’m doing as little as possible. The worst is when I feel sick when I’m at work. I just have to chew spearmint gum and stuff my face with food and hope the sick feeling goes away, which it usually doesn’t.
One good thing is that by some miracle I felt great pretty much the entire day on Saturday when we went to the Blue Jays game with my family. I only felt a tiny bit of the panicky “I NEED TO EAT” when it was time for me to eat lunch but I just made sure to eat quick and I was good. We had a lot of fun even though the kids were wild as usual. Miles actually fell asleep on my brother which is very unusual for him but I was happy to get the break since at our seats he kept wanting up and down out of my lap about 1,000 times. I probably watched like 20 minutes total of the game since I had to keep an eye on the kids and my mom and I were chatting a lot lol. The Blue Jays are doing amazing lately and the score was 15-1 so everyone was pumped! The kids loved riding the Go Train there and back too cuz you know boys and trains :) They couldn’t care less about the game lol. Way too young to care about that sort of thing. Cody found the experience a bit overwhelming and covered his ears a lot when people started cheering. Sometimes loud places are too much for him.
This is a bad time for me to have a ton of hormones flowing through my system. I’m going to be a wreck when Cody goes to school next week. I feel fine about it now and know it’s going to be a big change but I think it will be nice to have less kids to take care of for the majority of the day. But you watch, I will put him on the bus and start bawling my eyes out lol.
