Exhausted

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.
