My kingdom (consists of a very messy and small house filled with boxes and rubbish) for some sleep, I have pretty much not slept very well since February started and it is getting worse and worse. At the moment my eyes are aching like I rubbed them with soap, and the eyelids are heavy like they were made from lead. When I walked to work today I closed my eyes for a bit, and wished for some built in satnav to take me into work. Sadly that wish didn’t come true. I guess some of this lack of sleep comes from worrying about getting the new kitchen set up and having everything in order for the end of April. But the biggest part (and I really DO mean the biggest part) is my lump of a belly.
It feels really tight, almost like the contents of it is growing faster than the outside can cope with. I can only compare it when you eat way too much, and then I don’t mean a pudding on top of your normal meal. Like when you have had a feast in style with the Romans. Then it feels like your stomach just has a life of its own and it feels hard and stretched. That is what this feels like, except the stomach is hard. Having never ever had any defined stomach muscles it is very weird having this solid hard surface. Very far from a six pack of course…more like a one pack, one pack of a hard, kicking, growing lump.
In fact had it not been for the fact that the house is far from ready, and there are so many things I need to finish of at work I wouldn’t have mind if time was up now. I feel the joy of pregnancy is maybe not as joyful as it has been! And I still have more than 8 weeks to go.
I hope I will be less grumpy soon, a few hours of sleep would probably do the trick.
