Something aorund the lines of "ugh !"

We were away yesterday and today visiting the HG's uncle and aunt in the mountain. They've rented an apartment in a ski station for two weeks, about 100km from here. We came yesterday, the HG and his uncle skied for the afternoon and this morning, while I just sat in the sun and chatted with his aunt. And now I'm. Completely. Utterly. Exhausted.
I had some doubts about whether I'd be fit enough to handle a day in costume, that obviously solves it. *sad panda* I'm really sorry to let you down like that, esp. as I was feeling very motivated again (and I have fixed the straps on my bodiced petticoat), but getting enough rest for the baby and me is a priority.
Right now, all our Paris plans are in the air, we don't know how long we'll stay nor where we'll stay, but will probably concentrate on some family members who've been too sick to come to the wedding (including the HG's lost uncle, who's been confined home with sciatic problems).
Right now I'm going to lie down until I feel vaguely human again, then maybe I'll try ont he bodice petticoat to check that the strap problem is indeed solved.

As a mother of two, I feel 'qualified' enough to tell you to listen to your body, when it says rest, then do so (don't feel the need to push on....)
...but trust me, you have suddenly reached a point in your life where everyone who has had a baby will feel 'qualified' to give you advice (and then some...) so take everything I have said with a grain of salt....and keep your doctor informed of all of this as well....

Thanky ou !
does it stay limited to the ones who've had children ? Cause I get plenty of advice form people who haven't, too. Including a "Nausea ? You only get as much as you pay attention to" from my boss... (but most are really lovely and meant to help)
My body currently says I need a warm bath, a good night in a good bed (ski stations are dreadful in terms of furniture), and that altitude is tiring. *yawns and complies*

Nope. And then random strangers start to think your belly is a good luck charm in need of rubbing!
Get some rest, and enjoy your bath!

Yay, I really did :)

Well said. I completely agree. I didn't listen and wound up in preterm labor and on bed rest for 3 months.

Ugh... I'm being very cautious, my MIL spent 6 months in bed rest :/
