Four whole days and no blog entry. It has been an energy-free week on my part, and not much to say. I'm finding myself increasingly less able to tolerate the heat, which continues to be above 90 and muggy. Sleeping has become more complicated, as my hips are spreading and I sound like a bowl of Rice Crispies whenever I try to turn over in bed. And for some reason in the mid-afternoons this week I've been hit by a wave of sleepiness that's darn near irresistible. I'm thinking it has to do with not getting enough hydration (a particular problem for me, with my habit of nursing my drinks), possibly low iron levels, or both. I have to wait until Tuesday to find out about the iron levels for sure, I think, since that's my next dr. appt. In addition, my feet and hands are swelling—I can't comfortably wear shoes for more than an hour or so, my wedding rings are starting to be too small for my pinky, much less my ring finger, and for the first time ever, my watch is too tight! So that is my litany of pregnancy woes for the week!
All of the above has left my brain feeling pretty much disengaged this week! Hope for cooler weather next week and more energy, and then I should be back, rambling away as usual. :)
