Thank God other people are dealing with this and its not just me. My mother and my husband are starting to pester me about it. My husband and I are in the middle of moving and renovating our new house and I feel like I am wasting so much time by resting even though I know I need it. Ugh I can't wait for everything to get in sync, cuz this is driving me bonkers lol.
I tried to break the cycle and did some "supercleaning" to the playroom and livingroom....I've been a lump ever since...it kicked my butt....so just relax when our bodies tell us to, I guess. Otherwise we'll regret it....pheeeew...gotta go lay down...lol
Right with you ladies!! I'm 16 weeks with my second and I feel the exact same way..."This needs to be done - now, but oh the couch looks so much better, I'll do it later when I have more energy" Only later never comes LOL
yes amen to that, lol....right now I'm thinking about all the things I need to do (clean the kitchen, take out the trash, shampoo the carpet in the van (long story) ) and I want to cry because it sounds so HARD, lol....how sad is that? I want to take my daughter to the park but literally the thought of getting up to take her makes me want to lie down in exhaustion.....but I'm hoping that if I'm patient this will pass and I'll get my energy AND my motivation in sync....because my trash stinks :( LOL
tired but motivated YES!!!! Great words 34maray! You put it into words better then me:)hehe
Thank you for putting into words what I was feeling - so tired & so motivated at the same time :) Seems I can be very productive for a couple days then have a couple days of not being able to do anything.
at least I know this is normal:) Hope it passes for us even for a while.
yep me too...i try to lie down at night and I'm like "time to get up gotta do something!!!!!!!!!!" but then I try to get up and, nope, no energy.
Ah well, I guess it'll pass. I didn't feel like this until later with my first, either, and I hate it, lol.
I know exactly what you mean! Feeling the same way!
