Today I hit my 12 week mark for the pregnancy. That means that basically my first trimester is over! Hooray! I woke up excited that this is the week my morning sickness and nausea usually go away and that I will finally start looking pregnant. But when I got out of bed this morning, my body was telling me "go back to bed".
I don't remember this with Lucy, but oh my goodness am I sore today! It started with my ankles then moved to my knees and hips, now I've got a knot in my neck the size of Texas. And its not the I-worked-out-really-hard kind of soreness, its the achy version. I tried taking Tylenol but its not really helping. And I've doubled my water intake. But I can't seem to shake this ache.
I still took Kelly for a decent walk and ran my errands. I even played with Lucy outside for a while, chasing her and Kelly around the backyard. But when I put her down to bed tomight, I couldn't get out of there fast enough. All I want to do is put my feet up.
I'm hoping this does not mean I'm getting sick (aka the flu) and that it will be gone by tomorrow morning. We have a pretty full schedule on our hands for Easter and having a grumpy mommy will not make things fun for Lucy. Besides, isn't the second trimester supposed to be the most enjoyable?
I'm off to the couch to enjoy some much needed water and television time......
