hibernation

i am pregnant. i am so tired and sleepy. these two happy organisms inside the stomach are sucking on my energy. i can’t really breathe well when i lay down, so i can’t sleep much even when i try. i guess that is the natural way of the body to prepare to the nonstop feeding-burping-changing marathon. everybody seem to survive it, so i am sure i’d manage it somehow even with my child-like 8 hour need of sleep. i wished for this so much, i’ll be just fine.

the coworker of mine said something very profound – she said that in order to successfully manage all these postpartum issues you have to have two qualities:
- you can’t be a control freak
- you should not require much of sleep
did i quote it to you already? anyone pregnant?

sometimes we wish to be camels, sometimes we wish to be bears..


there is a survey at the bottom of the page again, so please vote by picking the option you relate the most to. hurting my feelings is always welcome.

  1. OMG according to those principles I am going to have a hard time with pregancy/post pregnancy. I am both a control freak and need a lot of sleep.

    Great.
