Breaking through the Fibrofog…

tackling 3 boys, a dog and a few rare health conditions, it’s all in a day’s work for this SAHM

well we had a busy week last week and a busy weekend. Today I again woke feeling extreme tired. Thinking some water and breakfast would perk me up, but no such luck, not long after that I felt even more tired! I’ve got a call into my ob’s office, this is the beginning of week 2 of feeling so tired I dont want to get out of bed. I am worried about it being the diabetes again and if it’s that it really is an easy fix, but until then all I want to do is sleep. My girlfriend came and picked up Caleb to watch him for the day so I can sleep, so if I have to go to the dr that will help. Some days I truly hate being pregnant. I cant help but think if I wasnt pregnant right now Caleb and I would be playing energetically at the park, instead he’s off playing and I’m resting. Granted, I should have tried to get help last week when I was so tired, but that means giving in to defeat. I only gave in today because Dean called my friend for help because he couldnt leave work to help me. I hate feeling helpless, especially knowing I have 3 more months of this! we cant afford to pay someone to watch caleb or for Dean to miss work to care for him. I dont know how I worked full time while pregnant w/ Caleb, probably because I didnt have a 3 year old to take care of too! Some days being an adult is no fun, today is one of those days!

for most parents out there today is a significant day, first day back to school! I look forward to the day we have that day w/ caleb but then again even having him away from me a little today makes me sad. I guess by the time he’s in school full time I’ll have another toddler to keep me busy so it will work out well!
