Well here we are going into week 12 and this fatigue is ridiculous! The other night I got comfy on the couch to read a book for class. I read one chapter, next thing I know it's two hours later and I'm waking up! I apparently passed out cold while reading and really wasted some valuable homework time.
This weekend was worse. I woke up at 7 am to go to the bathroom, something I do at least every 45 minutes now. Apparenlty the hormones make you have to pee more. Ugh. While I was up I realized how starving I was. Another thing that I am constantly doing, Eating! After I ate I went back to bed and slept until lunch. Woke up, ate lunch, hung out with my son and fiance for a little bit, then took a nap! I physically cannot stay awake anymore! Which really sucks when I have a ton of things to do!
Just to make life a little more hectic, my fiance and I decided that we are going to get married next Thursday, on the 18th. We have been together for 8 years and have a 6 year old son together. We've always just been comfortable in our relationship and never felt a rush to get married. He proposed to me last August, everyone expected me to start planning the wedding. Turns out i'm the procrastinater and not him. Family life and moving a lot has been hectic this past year so that certainly contributed to it. But now with another one on the way, we just want to be married. So next Thursday our friend is going to marry us in front of a few of our closet family and friends. We chose 18th because next year the 18th falls on a Saturday, then we can have a big ceremony with all our friends and family and renew our vows on our one year anniversary.
So the only planning I ever did was buy my wedding dress a few months ago. It is gorgeous and I know I look fantastic in it. But.. I wasn't pregnant a few months ago and that dress is not going to work for next week. At least I'll be able to flaunt my post baby body in it next year! So this next week will consist of planning a wedding and staying on top of my homework, and of course, hopefully not falling asleep all the time! It's a rush to plan, but I'm so excited and it's a happy time in our lives so I'm sure it will all work out!
28 weeks to go until baby! 1 week until the wedding!
I couldn't imagine going through all of that in the matter of a week (or two now). I'm engaged as well but our wedding isn't for another two years. We were actually thinking about the small wedding theme but our friends convinced us that we party a bit too hard to hold back on our own wedding. Things would definitely be different if we had a baby on the way though. Good luck with everything!
