A sleep in

I haven't been feeling very pregnant the last few days. I keep thinking I should be feeling really unwell and yucky by now, but maybe it hit later in previous pregnancies? Or perhaps morning sickness is going to skip this pregnancy?

Anyway, I have been a bit more tired than usual. I've been falling asleep on the couch most nights, and this morning I needed a sleep in. I dozed on and off and didn't get up till after 8am. Considering I am up before 6am most mornings, that really is a sleep in! We had a pretty big day yesterday, so I guess that may have contributed.

I am finding myself analysing things. Am I sick enough? Tired enough? Enough cravings? Basically, I am looking out for anything that will make me 'feel' pregnant. Early pregnancy kinda sucks for this reason. There is always something to worry about at every point in pregnancy - but these early days when the whole concept seems so unbelievable, I second-guess everything. At least later on you have the bump and kicks to comfort you somewhat. Now I just spend my days wondering if I am even pregnant at all.

On then upside, now that my cousin from overseas has left, I feel I can tell my sister about the pregnancy. I'm basically just waiting to see her, maybe today or tomorrow without my parents around. Then I'll tell her! I'm not sure how she'll take it, especially seeing as she is moving away soon. She's going to miss all this pregnancy and the baby. Yes, she'll fly home here and there, but it's not the same as her living here.
