“How are you feeling?”
This is the question I am asked At Least once per day. (And it’s not by my sweet hubby, either; he knows better and asks how the kids are doing.) And the answer to this question is best identified in multiple choice:
a. Tired.
b. Good and tired.
c. Exhausted.
d. Never felt better!
e. All of the above.
It depends on the time of day, what I’ve eaten that day, and whether or not the kids have taken naps that day.
Seriously though, this pregnancy has gone by so fast. I can’t believe there’s only about 7 weeks left and I’m trying to enjoy them as best I can. I am still having those pesky little contractions, but they’re minor and go away quickly. I am also still having some heartburn issues, but the baby has dropped quite a bit and it’s better now. My dad (aka my chiropractor) gave me some wonderful enzymes; the bottle is labeled Betaine HCl - Pepcin - Gentian Root Extract. I take 2 of these twice a day (morning and night) and love them, especially since they’re natural and don’t have side effects. The papaya enzymes also help in between.
I guess my main complaint is not being able to sleep well. I’m pretty uncomfortable and can only lie (lay?) on my left side without feeling nauseous. “This too, shall pass,” I know.
I get to take my glucose test on Monday and then we’re going to eat donuts at the new Shipley’s! Midwife’s orders! Wahoo!
(PS - Sorry if I’m a little link happy.)
