8 Weeks vs 11 Weeks

8 Weeks
11 Weeks

Here are my complaints at 11 Weeks:
I am tired all the time. I sleep entirely too much. I feel guilty because my husband works 11 hour days, and even some weekend days, and gets up at 4am for work, and I nap every day and sleep more than him at night. My justification is that my body is doing just as much if not more work than his! Right?

I have random feelings of nausea, not usually to the point of puking, but enough to stop and deep breath a bit. Hoping both of these feelings really go away after the first trimester. I know these are minimal complaints compared to those of my friends at home on bedrest with high risk pregnancies, but it goes along with the documentation of pregnancy #2!

Continue to have no motivation. I really want to paint Rowan's room and get it done before working on a nursery, but I can't get my butt out of the house to go look for a bed, or wall decor to even start. And I am starting to feel like a bad mom. My poor daughter has had no socialization outside of daycare, and that has been only 1 day a week (minus our weekend in Belvidere) My sister in law makes me feel uber lazy with all the classes Kieran is in, and the Mom's Clubs, and she does all this with 2 kids. My goal is to get Rowan at least in swimming lessons this fall/winter! Wish me luck!

Okay, enough complaining for now!

Look at your bump...so cute!

Hopefully you'll get back your energy when your second trimester hits, which is soon!

So fun to see you growing! Glad you're taking and showing pictures this time :-) Hope you're feeling better soon!

Damn MILK, you're skinny! And I just love that little cute bump that you are sporting.

As for being tired...you're creating a life! It is exhausting work, so I say sleep whenever you want to or can. And nausea sucks, no matter what. I hope it is gone soon, and until then, don't feel badly about complaining!
