My husband and I went up north on a 4-hour drive last weekend and then we went to a Father's Day celebration at his parents place the following day... I was so tired. I thought that I could just sleep it off and will all be better come Monday but it's just not the same. I have lots of pains... My hands and feet are swollen and tender, I find it difficult to walk around and I have this constant ache all over. Oh yes, I'm also on my 36 week of pregnancy which I believe is the main culprit. It's just a few more weeks, I know... However, I didn't expect to be this tired all the time. It's like having a huge hang-over which I couldn't seem to get over from.
My only consolation is my active little bud... He seems so oblivious of his mom's aches and pains. I still play music, sing to him and read books out loud which I feel he's responding to all the more these days. He already has a routine. I know when he's awake and asleep. I also know when he's most active. And I just love it! Thankful for his vitality...
I may be suffering a little, but I know that every single aches and pains means I'm getting closer to meeting him. I may feel so pregnant, yet definitely feel more alive now that I have this baby in my womb gearing up for his grand arrival...
