So I am writing after many days of stress, crying, and hopefully now some relief. I am a Special Ed. teacher in a K-2 class. I have students on all different levels. I truly love what I do but it STRESSES ME OUT! Everyday you walk in it is a big unknown. Your day is determined on how your kids day go. So last week was a very rough week and on Thursday in the middle of the day I broke down crying. I was emotionally and physically tired, my students had finally worn me down. To add to that I have a huge deadline coming up so I went into work on Saturday to try and play catch-up. I did do a lot of shopping and retail therapy so I think I am better this week.
Yesterday was the start of 14 weeks for me!! I am so happy that I have made it here. I hear so many stories of people who it took years to conceive or they are at the point of finding out they are unable to have a baby altogether. That has been a fear of mine for years. I guess since I have wanted to be a mother my entire life to know that I couldn't would kill me.
So moving on to happier thoughts I made an appointment for a 3d ultrasound next week. We are hoping to find out the gender at that point. Then on Tuesday we go for our regular doctor's appointment. So a lot of exciting things are coming up! Next week is also my last week of school before our Thanksgiving break. I am hoping to go clothes shopping as well as fabric shopping for the baby's room. I can't wait!!!

I don't know how old you are, but I'm sure you're still a young woman. And being young, so, so many changes are ahead of you. I wish I could tell you how to noticibly minimize stress, but sometimes we have to "go through" things and figure it out on our own.
ReplyDeleteLive modestly, and take care of yourself, your baby, and your relaltionship with your husband.
Have fun shopping. :)
Well I am 25 going on 50 I feel like. My mom tells me all the time not to stress about things but I do think your right, I have to go through it myself in order to realize it's truly not the end of the world. I think that my job will take a back seat when we have the baby. Thanks for following along!
