The last two weeks have been hard. There's a lot on my plate lately and all I want to do is curl up in a ball and sleep. I know it's important to keep a positive, stress-free environment for the baby but sometimes shit just isn't all la-di-da perfect. We are stressing. We are stressing about finding a new place to live, having the money to move, buying a new car, affording a tiny human and on top of it all I have family obligations, a job and a design business to stay on top of. All of this stress is putting a strain on Tyler and I's relationship too. A time when we should be the closest, feels like the opposite. It's just hard. And I know that it will all work itself out. Maybe it's my hormones but this shit is just weighing on me as of late. I hope it gets better very soon.

The first trimester is so hard! Your body is raging with hormones, you're sick, and your guy JUST CAN'T RELATE :) It will get better, I promise!
ReplyDeleteThe only craving I had in my pregnancy was in the first trimester and it was for Mexican food. We joked I was going to have a Mexican baby.
ReplyDeleteHope the stress is calming down. There are definitely a lot of adjustments you will have to make, but if you stay excited and focused on your baby then hopefully you and Tyler will get closer as you figure it all out!
Also, I accidentally typed "our baby" originally in this comment instead of "your baby" and I was really glad I proofread because while I may be crazy commenting on every post right now, I am NOT a creep. I've got enough babies, I am not trying to steal yours lol.
