No one ever tells you...

It is crazy to think that my body is working as hard as it is whilst I am just expected to continue with everything as with pre pregnancy. I have not slept for more than 30 minutes in nearly 48 hours and working as a full time special needs teacher really took its toll today. An autistic child really took a dislike to me and it is the first time I have found myself being anything like maternal. I actually thought about mine and my baby's safety and took myself out of the room. It's hard. Really hard. But I got home and my little man kicked me so hard that my stomach moved - and my husband saw it for the first time. Moments like that make it all worth it. Here's hoping puppy cuddles and a night infront if the tv mean I can sleep tonight.
