I've had better nights

I don’t know what hit me yesterday. I think it’s a combination of a terrible night’s sleep and a sore neck and walking too much at lunchtime. Beginning in the afternoon I started getting horrible cramps which just got worse over time. By the time I got home I was couch bound. I checked the wisdom of the internet to reassure myself that it wasn’t anything serious and that yes, cramps are common throughout the entire pregnancy. As long as they’re not more intense than usual period cramps, just get through it. At least I was still randomly feeling the flutters so I was confident that Banjo was moving around. So I was resigned to feeling crappy and I was also freezing cold. I bundled up in sweats, a sweater, toasty socks and a blanket and curled in a ball on the couch (why was it sleeping on my side on the couch didn’t bother me but sleeping on my side in the bed wasn’t comfortable?) Pete got home and made me grilled cheese sandwiches and made sure I was comfortable, let the dog out and fed him and let me watch Grey Gardens on tv and checked on me throughout the night and did the dishes. I went to bed early and woke up feeling SO much better. It was a crappy night but the silver lining is that even when I’m a whiny lump, I have the best husband ever.
