I’m exhausted today. Don’t get me wrong, I think I’ve gone to bed at about 9 or 9:30 every night this week. But I wake up easily at 6, and I feel pretty good during the day. I just start to get tired after dinner.
Not today.
Though I was awake at the usual hour, I am still dragging. My breakfast didn’t sit well (english muffin with peanut butter), and I feel like I barely have enough energy to stand for more than a minute or two. Taking the dog for a walk had me completely winded. I know some people have been feeling this all along, but it looks like I might be full-on into my first trimester.
I’m guessing I might be somewhere approaching six weeks right now, but that’s just speculation. I’m really hoping next week’s ultrasound will give me a more accurate picture. My husband keeps talking about triplets, which completely freaks me out. I think about it for two seconds and then immediately feel like “there’s no way I could handle three!” He says he thinks about triplets so that then twins seem like no big deal. That’s one tactic…
Honestly, if I get one full-term pregnancy and baby this time around, I will be beyond thrilled. More than one would just be ridiculous.
I was cruising the boards today and found that there were two triplet births for January moms already. TWO. And one set was spontaneous, identical girls.
Ack, the fatigue. I’m between fatigues and beginning insomnia – fun!
