Indulge me while I complain a bit.
Honestly, this pregnancy hasn't had nearly as many symptoms so far as Jellybean's did.
A few bouts of nausea.
Some itching at my c-section scar.
A little nipple tenderness when breastfeeding.
What is doing me in though?
The fatigue.
You have not experienced exhaustion until you've been pregnant while working full time and taking care of a toddler alone all week.
My house is a disaster, especially since we haven't replaced the washer yet. Dishes are overflowing and you can follow Jellybean's path of destruction through each room.
I don't have the energy to fight it.
I feel like a bad mom because my patience isn't always there. When he fights me at bedtime I feel like crying myself because I really want to go to sleep too.
I'm so excited to be pregnant with Jujube but some days I'd kill for a nap and a long bath. To come out of the room and see that someone else has cleaned. For just a few minutes to myself.
8 weeks until energy should return.
I've got this!
