I truly do believe that whoever "THEY" are completely lied about this whole 2nd Trimester burst of energy thing. I have yet to see this wonderful happening occur. So, if you are fortunate enough to have been granted this magical "symptom" then consider yourself a lucky girl indeed.
On that note, I am EXHAUSTED! I don't know how anyone gets anything done when they are pregnant. Everything that I would normally do on my days off is about two or three times as daunting. I feel like a juggler who is balancing too many balls & is struggling to keep them all in the air. This is new for me. I have never had problems before balancing things between Nurse & Housewife & Friend & Wife & Daughter & Sister...ect (not necessarily in THAT order). Who knew that throwing Mommy in the mix was going to be the monkey wrench? I have always been organized & always good with time management, so to me, this is ridiculous! Up until the last few weeks of my pregnancy I have felt like I had everything totally in control & have been ahead of myself as far as planning goes. Maybe it's just hitting the 6 month mark & realizing that time is not my friend, but I feel like I am falling behind on EVERYTHING. It doesn't help that lately Mr. K & I seem to have about every 3rd weekend off together. =( It's hard to accomplish anything by myself that is a two person job. I find myself having to decide what is most important. For example: Do I make us a nutritious dinner or do clean the house? Do I work on the nursery or my registry? Do I go to the gym or the grocery store? Do I have time to return some clothes & stop at the paint store? Today, I tried to do ALL of those things & the nursery suffered-yet again. Tomorrow I strive to again accomplish as much as I can, but oh what I wouldn't give for a major energy boost.
Anyone with this mythical energy want to let me borrow it for day? Pretty please? <3
I guess this is nature's way of getting you used to sleep deprivation once baby comes :P Just put Kyle to work!
ReplyDeleteSorry you're not feeling 100%. It will be worth it in the end - and everything will come together somehow. Try not to stress - only 3 months left and it will all pay off!
