Over it!
31 weeks today. I want to lay on my stomach so badly. Go a full hour without having to pee. I want my energy and physical ability back. I want to bend over to pick something up without throwing up in my mouth a lil bc of indigestion. I wanna be comfortable instead of hot or cold! I’m grateful that baby is still safe and developing properly. I’m grateful for the reassurance of kicks even when my cervix is the target. But GAWD I can’t WAIT to just feel relatively normal again. The extra weight makes everything harder. I need to lay down after showering or eating. Writing this I have been rolling around in bed for an hour because there is no comfortable position. And I still have two months to go! I am simultaneously hungry and nauseous all the time unless I take reglan, which I was prescribed in first trimester and try to only use when I *really* need it.
I’m blessed to have a partner who takes care of the financials so I can just be home and grow baby. I’m blessed to have a reasonably easygoing pregnancy besides some mental health issues, compared to some who have severe complications. I just needed to vent and maybe commiserate a little lol. And say, props to those who are working full time, doing it on their own, or have a more difficult pregnancy. Y’all are warriors.
