Being 4 months pregnant, sometimes I feel like I'll never feel better. I'm having a taste of what it's like to have a chronic condition. People ask me all the time if I'm feeling better yet, sometimes I even look better and sound better, but it doesn't mean that I feel better. It's frustrating when I feel like I'm expected to get better and if I don't then I'm just a weak or wimpy person. For four months I wake up and want to throw up, sometimes actually throwing up and struggle all day to get over the feeling. In the meantime, my two toddlers 2 and 3 still need me. There's still laundry to do, dishes to clean and put away, little teeth to brush, hair to wash, clothes to put away and sort, toys to put away, fix, etc.
Even though I have still been sick I have just decided that I want to pick up pre-school with my kiddos again so today we had our debut and they loved it. Several times I dry heaved during the abc's and needed to take a nap when we were all done. I am like a new born! Eat, sleep, drink a little, sleep some more. You want to know why I'm cranky sometimes? Wake a sleeping baby and ask them. ;) Anyway, I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a mother several times over. It is just tough right now while I'm so sick and for such a long time.
Here's a SUPER fun little girl website I found one day when I just really needed an hour to sleep but didn't want to leave my toddlers to themselves. It has the cutest printout pictures, games and more: http://www.disney.co.uk/princess/print-and-colour/?princess=rapunzel
