I feel like I’ve gained 20 lbs in the past week. In reality, I haven’t. I’m just bloated. Like woah. I’ve taken to wearing a size up in my pants (i recently lost a bunch of weight, so I have a larger size conveniently hanging around).

I am completely exhausted.  I got up today at 8, came downstairs, had some OJ and breakfast, went back upstairs and went back to sleep until 11:30.  And I’m still tired now!  I did manage to go to the store today and I tried to buy really good things.  I bought food for dinner each night (and none of the dinners is too labor intensive, so I should be “awake” enough after work to make them).  I bought fiber enriched cereal – I hope it doesn’t taste like twigs.  I bough yogurt, and milk, and fruit, and all kinds of good stuff.  And some junky stuff too, but I figure it’s ok.

Looks like tacos for dinner tonight.  If I can stay awake long enough.

My in-laws are coming next weekend.  We only see them a few times a year because they live really far away.  So, DH is cleaning the house.  I went to the store and otherwise can’t get off my ass but he’s cleaning.  So far, he hasn’t complained, but I hope he’s not getting resentful.  We’re planning on telling them when they come because otherwise we won’t see them for another year or something – so this is really the only in-person time.  I keep praying, every night, that everything will be ok.  I have no idea why I am SO scared about it – other people don’t seem to be as paranoid/terrified/anxious as I am.  I think I’ll be more relieved on Monday when we hit the 4 week mark.

My back is killing me! And I’m sure sitting in a cubicle has a lot to do with it. Still getting some cramping. All in all, I’m feeling good. I’m still really nervous about the whole thing though.

It doesn’t matter how many times I read that some cramping in early pregnancy is normal, as long as there’s not bleeding as well, blah blah blah – It doesn’t help when I get a twinge of a cramp.  I’ve heard (on my favorite message board) that Fiber One bars help with the constipation.  I’ll have to check that out.

Came home from work today and collapsed into bed until shortly after 8.  Then I got up for dinner and Grey’s.  I’m pooped.  Thank God tomorrow is Friday!
