| 28-4-2009 - Ready to be done being pregnant |
My mood while writing this blog: blah |
I have been really stressed and really irritated with everything lately so I am going to vent for a minute....
I know I still have a ways to go but I am just feeling like I am done with being pregnant. I am getting big and I am not even all the way big yet and it's getting harder to move around and I have weird aches and pains :( I feel like a crazy person in my own head everyday and I just keep it pushing so I can get through this. My son is the one thing that brings joy to my life right now, I mean other than the new baby coming but she is inside right now. But Isaiah just makes me feel so wonderful. Last night I let him sleep in bed with me and he held onto me for the first time in a long time and put his little hand on the side of my face and fell asleep. I didn't want to move him but I ended up having to because I needed to turn the TV off. It was so precious I started to cry a little. In fact thinking of it now makes me tear up LOL I just want to snuggle with him always.
As most of you know I have been having troubles with Jason and it gets better between us sometimes and he has been trying to make these changes I asked him to, but it just doesn't feel the same anymore. He has said and done some things I simply cannot get out of my system. I know I am not perfect but I dunno. I almost feel like I rushed him into having this baby and he isn't ready. I am so scared of the future right now. I want to quit work and stay home with the kids but let's face it I make WAY more money than he does and cannot really afford to quit. I mean at this point we don't even officially live together yet! I miss him when he is not around and then when he is I cannot stand him. I feel like he is another child to take care of quite often and that is really overwhelming for me. I feel like I am taking care of my mom half the time too. I am the only one who cleans the house and all these damn cats are driving me crazy!! One of them actually pissed in Isaiah's closet all over a clean pile of laundry... I was irate. I plan on moving out asap because of these damn cats and the space I have is just not big enough. The big problem is, is money. I am in debt and have to work to pay daycare and car payment and bills. It just seems like a endless cycle.
One of the few places I find sanity is on here talking with all you wonderful women. You all understand all the weird crazy emotions and stresses because we all deal with our own. Thanks for listening as always. Hope you all are having an excellent week!

Thursday, 30 Apr Honey, it will get better. God never gives us more than we can handle. On those bad days, tell yourself, even a bad day doesn't last longer than 24 hours. Take a few minutes of your day to breathe, close your eyes, and just relax. As for the baby daddy, he has responsibilities toward his child, don't let him off the hook with any of your own guilty feelings. Chin up sweetie, we're here for you!! Hugs!! janice -
Wednesday, 29 Apr AllyCat- I totally get what you are saying, and sorry that you are feeling this way! I feel like some days...wow, another 2 1/2 months, and other days, I'm like, "wow this is all going so fast!". My husband has been out of town for two weeks, so I'm solo parent with my toddler and the dog. I thought I'd leave the dog out in the middle of the road the other night when she decided to take a dump in the hallway...just to be rebellious. Then Charlotte poured juice all over the newly mopped kitchen floor. And like you, I am sick of working a job, and just want to stay home and tackle the mile-long list of "to do's" but because of my income I cant....yada, yada, yada. Calgon take us away! And also like you, my little Charlotte snuggled up and slept with me last night, right when I felt a kick from the baby and that made everything in the world seem right. Anyway, hang in there, and know that you aren' t loosing it. It's all good, and we are here for you! Tia.M -
Wednesday, 29 Apr hang in there...i know the stress of all the bills can really get to you all on their own before you add a pregnancy,a BF who isnt doing exactly what needs to be done and a little one to take care of.
just snuggle up with Isaiah anytime you need to,i bet he will never turn it down! that is my favorite thing to do with my boys. Sam will snuggle for a bit but he needs to sleep on his own,Max is the best snuggler,he would sleep in our bed every night if i let him. i just love staring at him after he falls asleep and smoothing his hair. and he is always so sweet...he always says to me "i love you mama" it just melts my heart. and always has to have his hand on my face or arm around my neck. i know its hard but try to stay strong...maybe let a cat or 2 outta the house by accident one day! ;) lol ugh i hate that you are so stressed,try to be as strong as you can and just like someone else said Jason may grow up more after his baby girl gets here...hopfully before but whatever. i know my hubby before we had Max was doing all sorts of stupid crap ugh but like 2 mo before i had him he totally quit hanging out with ALL his friends he was hanging out with got a new cell # got a new job and we ended up getting married 12 days before he was born lol we were together for 5 yrs before that though.and we have known eachother since we were 12..so it wasnt like we were jumping into anything i already had a wedding dress for 2 yrs. however i couldnt wear it at the time so we had a huge reception that summer and i wore it then! ;) he awlays says Max saved his life. and now is the best husband and dad i could imagine. he really suprised me and i am very proud of him even though before Max i just wanted to kill him sometimes!
and also like somone else said god never gives you more than you can handle..i think he pushes it a little to close but you have to think sometimes the bills arent going anywhere you're not going to die if you dont get them paid right now and put youself and the kids first and get where you want to be. make your carpayment though you need that lol ok hun hope you have a better day. :) go buy a cute something for baby! gwendalyne -
Wednesday, 29 Apr I understand how you feel...It will get better...especially once the baby is here and you are back to life w/out the hormones...many prayers and blessings! Anesha -
Wednesday, 29 Apr That was really beautiful what you wrote about you and your son. It made me almost cry. My daughter is that comfort for me. I don't know what I would do without her. I believe God gives us women these children to hold us like no one else on earth can. I love my child so much. When she was an infant I felt like I was just born to cater to her but as she gets older she is giving me so much more back that I never even expected. I wanted to give her life and then fulfill her life but she has fulfilled my life as well! Texas gal -
Wednesday, 29 Apr Don't beat yourself up about your situation. All of us feel crazy and out of our minds at some point during our pregnancy. Just know that you are not alone. We are here for each other.
I am glad that your son was so sweet and cuddled with you. That just warms my heart.
As for Jason, he might do some growing up a bit of his own when your baby girl comes. You don't have too much longer to go in your pregnancy. So, hang in there. Again, Jason might surprise you when he finally gets to hold his little girl in his arms. Some men don't grow up until they know that have someone else depending on them for food, shelter, clothing etc. Hang in there. HUGS>>>>>>> GeoS -
Wednesday, 29 Apr Sorry you are going through all these girl. Clearly there are so many things going on that you are right to feel done with being pregnant (at least). At least your man is trying to change and I'm sure that as soon as you get your own place thinks will brighten up. Don't worry about debts (that's an advice from someone that has a house loan, a car loan and does not yet have the amount required for her labor...). Things will work out because you try. As long as you feel that you try your best then nothing can go wrong. Hang on in there and vent whenever you get your hands on your pc. We are here and on the same boat... hayley-france -
Wednesday, 29 Apr Aw, I know what you mean about the sick of being pregnant part...it's like with each week I discover a new "joy" that nobody warned me about...for example this week I suddenly cannot eat my dinner! It's impossible for me to find a comfortable position to sit in and to eat a meal...I have to walk round the house holding my plate whilst I eat! lol
Hope you find somewgere of your own asap and things between you and Jason settle down...you neve rknow it might just be hormones and you'll be able to tolerate him again once the baby comes. Good luck! xxx BlackRussian -
Tuesday, 28 Apr I feel you mama, but we all goin get thru this together and its all going to be WAYYY worth it for the end result :) All us sore, tired bitchy women are here for you, and its gonna be over soon! ;) LouOz -
Tuesday, 28 Apr obviously you want to be with your man so i think for your own piece of mind you just need to let it go and not upset yourself over the things that happened in the past. use him as something to lean on and whinge to instead of something you need to fix. when you have a supportive partner everything else is so much easier. As for the bills etc, they will get paid. life seems to work itself out all the time. take a bath. thats what i do when i feel stressed. amo -
Tuesday, 28 Apr Always know that I am here to listen:) You are valid in your feelings but I am sure that rainbows are coming your way and soon enough you will have two little miracles in your bed looking at you with these big eyes filled with love, because you really are their everything! wendy125 -
Tuesday, 28 Apr That was a beautiful sentiment about your son. I can't wait for those little moments. I teared up when I read that.
We're here for you! Sometimes I think that if it weren't for you ladies, I would have gone crazy a long time ago. The aches, the pains, the crazy mood swings, the ditziness. ARRGGHHH!!! Sometimes I feel like some alien being has taken over my body and mind.
It's good that he's making an effort to change and be a better boyfriend. Hopefully if he becomes the man he needs to be, the two of you can move past the things he's said and done and rediscover what made you fall in love in the first place. My boyfriend and I are working on our relationship as well. It's not easy. It's a process just like everything else. It will take time.
