Oh so tired
I barely get home from work, take my meds, eat a small something, and crash in bed. I seem to always be exhausted. I wake up after 8 or more hours of sleep, and I'm still tired! This pregnancy things is nuts! I know I'm not that far into it, so I feel like I'm doing something wrong. I'm trying to change my diet to add more whole wheat and fruit, but I still lack energy. Maybe it's this earache that I've got that's sapping my energy? I grew up with ear infections and swimmers ear what seemed like every other week and I never felt tired from it, but who knows. I'm going to try the library to see if there are any energy boosting recipes I can try to get Zach to help me cook. Luckily we both have the next two days off together.

I'm usually tired, extremely tired, the first 10 weeks or so of pregnancy. Until about 27 weeks I am not nearly as tired, then after that I get progressively more tired. This morning I didn't even want to get out of bed. So when the alarm went off at 8, I turned it off and laid there till 8:40 when I decided I had to get out of bed to make breakfast or let the boys have cold cereal which I don't like to do.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how I'm going to get through work... 12 and a half hour shifts on my feet for all but the half hour is all but impossible. I'm looking into transferring into the clinic maybe in March. At least it's a normal 8a-5p shift (in OBGYN no least). BTW I bought ginger snaps at walmart and they seem to work okay. I wanted to make my own, but I can't even muster the energy to make a bowl of cereal. But for now, the ginger in these cookies are working.
