Truly hoping this new medication will start working soon. Yesterday I spent the whole day in bed only getting up to get my son food and put him down for a nap. I feel terrible, both physically and as a mother. I sure hope he can forgive his mum for just doing nothing yesterday. On top of general pregnancy exhaustion and sickness, it was horribly windy. Which mean my fibro just wasn’t having it. I couldn’t think, I couldn’t “wake up”, I couldn’t eat. Just a big pile of miserable mush in bed. Today is windy too but I was able to pry myself from my pillow long enough to choke down a bagel and some tea. And I’m at least sitting upright.
We’re almost 10w now, and the sickness typically gets better for most in a couple weeks. With the placenta starting to finally sustain itself and my body no longer having to run the hormones for both of us, my hormones will go all nuts trying to readjust again. Baby’s little flutters are felt when I’m laying down. Nothing strong enough for anyone else to feel, but I know you’re there little one. Nothing makes my heart thrill with joy greater than hearing their big brother say “Mommy I love your little baby in there! *points to my belly*”
Im excited for the future, and admittedly sick of the present, but we gotta keep moving forward.
