Emotion and Exhaustion


I think third trimester exhaustion has started.  Yesterday and today I’m just so tired all day.  I know I haven’t been sleeping well but still.  Sleep at night has been tough.  I keep switching sides as my hip and now shoulders hurt when I’m on one side too long.  And Sweetpea is a kicker!

Last night I dealt with a range of emotions all in a short period of time.  I haven’t been sleeping well so when that happens I laugh uncontrollably at stupid things.  Well we were head upstairs to put Liam to bed and he was walking funny.  I thought it was so funny and couldn’t stop laughing.  My husband said jokingly “You need to get yourself in control”.  Well instantly that sent me into tears.  I couldn’t stop crying.  Then I started coughing and was coughing so hard I thought I would throw up.  Needless to say I went to bed at 8pm last night. 

Tomorrow marks 29 weeks.  Time is going so fast.  I had my 1 hour glucose test today and hoping to pass.  I didn’t have breakfast this morning and about 5 minutes after I chugged the sugary drink I felt so off.  Glad it’s over!

Last weekend Liam got his big boy bed and is doing an awesome job with it!  It’s like nothing has changed.  We talked about it enough with him and really made him involved so I’m sure that is part of the reason it’s been such a smooth process.  Every morning he is sitting at the foot of his bed with Elmo waiting for us.  Love him!  I’m hoping this weekend to get his room decorated with all new “big boy” décor!  I painted one coat of the letters of his name to hang in his room.  I hope to do the second coat tonight, if I have the energy.

When I was headed out to buy the letters for Liam’s name, I asked my husband if he was ok with me buying the letters for Sweetpea’s name that I really wanted.  He said go for it.  We are going to talk about it a bit more before I start painting them but I think we have a name!  One less thing for me to stress about these days!
