just not a good day, anyone else?

[gerberdaisy]

I am having such a blah day right now and just want to vent.  I've been staying in a hotel for the last 10 days for work and the bed hurts my hips, I'm just exhausted and so ready to come home.  Also didn't help that I am so stressed out with work right now that I'm having a hard time focusing on anything.  Couldn't sleep due to stress and not being able to get comfortable.  Everytime I'd lay down I'd get this awful anxiety that made me feel like everything was closing in on me. 

Typically I really try not to complain and have felt pretty great, but I just feel like I'm hitting a wall right now.  My body hurts everywhere, I'm tired and I just cannot deal with work anymore. 

Positive note, I get to fly home today!  I am so excited to just be in my own place and see FI.  He really was so great listening to me last night and wants me to seriously consider going part time a month or two before baby to reduce some of this stress.  The stubborn part of me wants to prove I can handle it all.

Thanks for letting me vent, anyone else not feeling so hot?

**hugs** I was having an off day yesterday, so I completely feel you! I hope you have a safe/quick travels and get to take it easy tomorrow/this weekend!

Hugs to you. Hopefully getting home to your SO, your own home, your own bed and a normal routine will help. I'm sorry you are having a rough few days and if you honestly feel the stress is too much and can afford to go part time, maybe you should really consider it if the situation continues to go downhill.

I'm glad you get to go home today! Being away from home that long is rough especially for work.

Yesterday was a rough day. I felt I was herding cats all day. I would get my employees on track & then they would go in another direction. I don't want to supervise anymore. This is too stressful & it's sucking the life out of me. I've done the same type of work for 12 years.

I'm right there with you! Yesterday was just all around not a good day, ending with me getting into bed at 6:30 after that stupid argument with DH.

Coming into work wouldn't be so bad but I have two different people shadowing me to my school sites so I can prep them to take over for me when I go on leave. They are nice but it just feels like extra work having someone by my side. I feel like I have to do more or be perfect because they are going to report back to my boss. More and more, I really want to start my leave a week early!

Yesterday was tough for me too - we all have our days/weeks where we feel awful. I'm sorry you're not feeling well!

Glad you have a light at the end of the tunnel, though. Can you schedule a prenatal massage or something? Go get a pedicure? Sounds like you need to do something for you to relax and unwind.

Huge hugs!

I've been having a rough day for a few weeks now. I've had 5 migraines this week alone and take a nap on the couch as soon as I get home from work. I'm so ready for July to get here.

Sorry you're having a rough day - I can't imagine what it's like to be away from home that long while pregnant. Glad you get to go home soon though.

I'm having a rough year it seems like (I know that is dramatic and I'm probably exargerrating, but 2014 has kinda sucked so far). I've had a different doctors appointment every day this week, I'm behind at work, and just a little while ago I got into an argument with our file room guy who is usually the nicest person I've ever met - he made a comment about me not going crazy just because I'm pregnant, and it hurt to hear him say that.

We're really busy at work this week and I'm exhausted. I was dragging Tuesday and yesterday, finally got a decent night's sleep last night and I feel better today. Except there's a spot on my upper back that's killing me. I've taken Tylenol and tried stretching it but it's a hard spot to stretch. It was better when I woke up this morning but got bad again when I got to work, so I don't know if it's stress or what. I'm tempted to try to get a massage for it but I have horrible hormonal acne on my back. I need to get a tennis ball and try to work on it that way.

I have not had the best day. It started with a bad nights sleep and waking up with no energy. Then I took DS for a doctors appointment because he has been acting a bit odd lately (has had fevers on and off since end of January, been crying for reasons he can't explain and he fell asleep in the bath). I had not expected the doctor to actually find anything wrong, but he did. DS has 'scattered lymph nodes' in his groin area that the doc wants to investigate so DS had to have blood tests. I am sure it is nothing serious, but still a worry. And then I dropped him off at school and came home.

I was then sitting talking to my mom and I am not sure if my blood pressure or my blood sugar levels dropped but suddenly I was really dizzy and seeing black spots. I am sure that if I had been standing up I would have fainted. I ended up lying on the sofa for around 4 hours and I still don't feel 'normal'.

Checking in! I've been really crabby the past week or so. I think the fact that we're going to actually have a baby in 3 (!!) months is staring to sink in. Lol

I've been extra snippy and nitpicky with H and while he's normally very patient with me, he's getting annoyed with my attitude. I've been forcing myself to relax and chill. I'm normally both of these things 24/7 so seeing this other side of me is a bit weird.

blushing - I'm so sorry. That kind of news is sometimes harder when it's so unexpected. Fingers crossed for good test results.

Oh blushing. Thinking of you and DS. I hate it when my baby is sick. Prayers it is just a minor infection. You take care of yourself.

I had a little pink spotting this morning. Trying not to freak out. Trying to be rational. I know spotting is common. I know that a lot of healthy pregnancies have this. I know

I had a bit of pink spotting a week before my miscarriage last time. And this is just not making me feel good about this one either. I pray I'm wrong.
