25 Weeks

I am now 25 weeks into my 3rd pregnancy. WHY DOES IT FEEL SO DIFFERENT????

EVERYTHING ACHES! 

I feel so shattered and useless and extremely exhausted. Every little hiccup and movement baby makes, I feel it. I don't remember feeling like this with the other two! I feel so huge! But don't get me wrong! I absolutely love being pregnant and I am already so in love with this baby, I cannot wait to meet her or him!

Husband reminded me last night that I am comparing myself to the me from 7 months ago. 7 months ago I managed to squat 80kgs (6kgs more then my body weight), Burpee like no tomorrow, sprint like a wolf was chasing me. I had achieved shit that I would have thought was ridiculous in my previous life. I miss it like crazy! When we talked about having another baby, I was determined to keep it up but by 10 weeks I was exhausted, and angry at myself that I wasn't able to keep up. I had to give up. I hate that. But you know what, it's ok. I am more determined to get back into after baby is here, as long as the monkey is happy and healthy and growing well, it's not the end of the world. 

It is so hot and sticky at work, I am on my feet all day and then come home and do my best to not fall asleep on the couch, I still have a family to look after and a house to keep. I am so lucky to have a husband that is so hands on, even though his work is ridiculously out of control busy. I have started buying the Little Treasures mag again, and it emphasises that making time for myself benefits everyone, it's not being selfish. So tomorrow I after a visit with my midwife, I am going to see Moana @ Manaaki Therapies
