6 weeks

Today I am six weeks – how do I feel? Um like I have run a marathon and then decided to do a thousand sit-ups. My body is really aching, plus I am sooooooooo tired, on a good note though the cold sores are slowly going, so I’m no longer receiving sympathetic looks from strangers!! I keep being told I need to rest loads so most of this weekend has been spent lying/sleeping on the couch and reading my book plus I even watched a movie. So hard to hang around inside on the weekend but it is all for the greater good, and I am definitely not complaining about one single side effect I would have them all a hundred fold if it means my baby is growing!!! I am still so nervous and await Wednesday’s results with trepidation, but I am a little more relaxed that I was this time last week, so that is good. I’ve been informed that it is not good for either me or our baby when I’m running on nervous energy all the time so I am teaching myself to breathe deeply and try and remain calm. Will pop in and see my acupuncturist this week – she will work miracles with my nerves, and give me some renewed energy. Lee surprised me a while ago with tickets to go watch Donovan Frankenreiter this evening, so we will pop over to Waihi around 4ish to watch him. I only hope I can keep my eyes open and remain awake long enough to hear my favourite songs . . . . . .
