We're on vacation up in Syracuse NY visiting with my husbands side of the family. We have been here 11 days (who's counting) and dh says he is not sure when were going back...maybe in a week or longer. I really don't mind being up here but Lucy has been sleeping horribly and I feel like a cranky walking zombie most of the time. I am able to take naps so I am not sure why I am so freaking tired I feel like most of the time. I am not sure if it has to do with the fact the my diet up here has been crapy. I am bound to return home 15 pounds heavier!!!! We eat a lot of junk up here but we really have no choice. I kind of have to eat what is served, right? Anyways, I feel very sluggish and frustrated with myself because I wish I just had that get up and go that I am seriously lacking!!! I have a tired headache most of the day and feel like I am in a fog for a few hours every eafternoon. Is that dramatic enough :)I can't emphasis this enough. Lucy is sick with a cold at the moment (again) but I think it has to do with playing with her cousins who have been sick. She just loves playing with the other children up here. She is one of 54 grandchildren so needless to say there are plenty of babies for her to play with here. Too cute!!!
Anyways, I am on CD 17 today. I haven't really been charting to well this cycle partly because Lucy has increased her nursing while up here on vacation so I am sure that would throw off my cycle so now I am taking a break from TTC this month. That means no blood draw. By the way, last cycle I did take a ovulation prediction test and it was positive so I am still puzzled why my levels were so low. Maybe in a couple of cycles it will straighten out.
This seems like a boring post to me so I am going to wrap it up :)
Sorry that your vacation hasn't been as relaxing as you'd like. I hope you body straightens itself out soon.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a hard vacation. I find now that my son is a little older (4), vacations are a little better. It is hard when your baby is sick on top of everything.
ReplyDeleteI hope and pray that you can find some relaxation during your time away!
ReplyDeleteMama, when they wake us during the night the interrupted sleep for us makes us very sleepy during the day. Don't be hard on yourself. Do your best ;-). I'm off o get sleep myself. Claire was up all night and then woke at 7am!!! Love her.

We miss you down here so come back soon! I bet Lucy is loving all the interaction with her cousins. I always feel a little off when I am out of my routine and schedule with eating, etc. You'll be home soon and can get back on track! Big hugs.
ReplyDeleteTotally understand. My family was here for 10 days and I slept horrible, ate horrible and feel horrible.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon!
54 GRANDCHILDREN! Are you serious???? Holy cow woman. What a fun big family!!! I'm one of 36 and I thought that was a lot...haha.
ReplyDeleteJust think about all the memories y'all are making up there with the family...how fun:)
