33 and a half weeks and totally over it! I've not enjoyed being pregnant as much this time around, mostly because of the heat, being pregnant through summer sucks big time. It's also hard work when you have 2 kids (3 if you include Kev!) to run around after and a heap of other stuff to be getting on with. There haven't been any regular daily rests like with the last two pregnancies which shows when i've overdone it. I get very very cranky when i'm tired and the rest of the family know about it. I find the simplest things tire me out much faster than they normally would such as a trip to the supermarket. My local supermarket is a 10 minute walk away but with 2 kids and being heavily pregnant what could be a 30 minute round trip turns into a few hours. We left the house at 11am this morning to go there and stop by the coffee shop for babycinos, we didn't return home until after 1:30pm and we didn't do anything else to make the trip longer. Ugh! I was so exhausted when we got home that i had a 3 hour nap, luckily Kev had come home early which allowed me to do so. I listened to my meditation/relaxation cd and was out for the count before he could count backwards from 10 to 0! I love that cd :)
So i have around 6 weeks left and i'm looking forward to it being over, i want my body back, i want to have some energy, to be able to bend, to be able to wear skinny clothes again (although this may take a little work!), to be able to concentrate and not have mushy pregnancy brain and most of all i'm looking forward to meeting my little Bub! It'll all be worth it in the end i know and i'll forget all about the pains and trials of pregnancy pretty quickly.
Oh and my apologies to friends i have flaked on due to lack of energy recently, it's a temporary thing and i promise to be more sociable once baby has arrived.
