I've been a bit absent lately.
Getting through the end of the school year seriously took almost every scrap of energy I could muster. Keeping our house from becoming a pig pen, taking care of the pup, and cooking up food to keep us all fed sucked up every last dregs of energy I had left. Add in a snoring husband and serious lack of a good night's sleep and you've got one tired pregnant lady. At our next appointment (which is a week from Friday) I'm going to talk to the Dr about whether this level of exhaustion is to be expected. (Maybe it's an iron thing? I think that can cause exhaustion too?)
Also, pregnancy brain is no joke. Although I'm sure it's related to being exhausted (seriously, how many times can I use that word in one post?) all the time and my brain running at half speed. But I can't tell you how many times in the last month I've been talking with my H and just stopped in the middle of a sentence, having no idea what I was talking about. Or walking into a room and having no idea what I was doing (Yes, I realize I did this before pregnancy, but it's happening in much higher frequency as of late). More often than not I find myself in the middle of a task I used to complete easily, having to take a break or stop completely. I tire crazy easy as of late.
Anyway. Today marks 8 weeks. Still praying hard that our little raspberry is in this for the long haul.
