My week has been up and down. I am SUPER tired today. The job thing is settled I Accepted the one that's an hour away instead of the one that's half that. Dh is mad at me b/c I'll have a longer commute. <sigh> oh well.

As for pregnancy health, I'm begining to wonder a bit. I just feel yucky and the pregnancy feels like a trigger rather than the cause. I think my immune system is totally out of whack. My blood counts are off, my hair is falling out, I can't seem to put on weight, I have sores in my mouth that make it difficult to talk or swallow - in places I coun't possible have accidentally bitten...the list goes on. I'm thinking seriously about a referal to a rheumatologist. Just had to vent. Sorry for the downer.

Mama is it possible it could be related to your thyroid or something that is triggering it all from certain foods you may eat? Do you live near a homeopath or herbalist?

I totaly don't live near an herbalist or homoepath or anything. I'm in the middle of Southern nowhere. I'm going to see what my doc says next week...

I'm way exhausted too.I know i am not getting enough proteins though.You sound like you are having some mineral deficiencies though Mama Rainbeau.You could get a bottle of trace minerals and up your proteins and see if that helps.I need to get some protein powder myself!I'm feeling kind of depressed right now because i am supposed to have my dd to school by 7:30am every morning which means getting 4 kids up at 6:30 feeding them,dressing them and getting out the door and to school but i am so very exhausted in the mornings that i can not get up out of bed.She has been late every day this week and i know that reflects badly on me.I have been going to bed early and everything but i am so tired!I'm not sure what to do.

I've been feeling movement which is great!Love that.Having to find a new midwife is not so great.But moving in a few weeks!
