Exhaustion, back pain, bumblebees

7w3d.
So, the nausea has gotten better, and has been replaced with absolute exhaustion. How frustrating. I am nervous all the time, it's scary at this stage when you can't feel the baby, you have no idea what's going on inside of you. I'm glad I have my eight week appointment next week, I can't stand not knowing anymore.

My lower back has never, ever in my life, caused me any pain. Now it is so sore and stiff I have to use my yoga skills to roll my body into a standing position from the couch or bed. So annoying.

The baby is the size of a Lima bean, sort of, and on my ultrasound from 6 weeks looked like a bumblebee. Did you know, bees shouldn't be able to fly based on the laws of physics - they're fat and furry and have tiny wings - but they ignore that and fly anyway. Miracles are everywhere.

Matt and I sat down and wrote out an organized game plan for moving in the next few months, for saving money, and for planning for the future. It's comforting to know we have a plan. We aren't usually very good at planning.

Sussex county fair this weekend, perhaps. A good distraction, and baby animals.
