So today has been great thus far. I was worried because about the time I was getting really tired last night the contractions started again, and I was pretty mad. It’s hard when you have no control over your body, and you feel almost like it’s betraying you in some way. I think the tired combo with the idea that they were supposed to be stopping just got to me. But I did manage to sleep through the night so they stopped and haven’t started again today. I’m ready to be up and around and normal again.
Today Feebus is taking to stretching. I hadn’t notice him doing this before, but now he’s all about slowing stretching out instead of kicking today. It kind hurts. I’m amazed at how much more I’ve bonded with him this week. It seems like I notice movements better, and that I am more tuned into what’s going on, and what his little personality is like.
I also realized today that my tummy is huge. Last night while I was lounging around, I had my elbow on my hip and my hand was on my belly and I all the sudden realized that my arm was not bent at all. Today I put on real clothes and I swear they don’t fit the same as they did a week ago!
I’m just glad I feel so much better, I’m still tired, but I think that’s just going to take a couple days to work out of my system. It’s been a looonnngggg week.
