Tiredness...

There was a period from about week 23 or 24 where I had the most energy and felt better than I did when I wasn't even pregnant! It was great and we both got loads done, cleaning the nursery ready for decorating - we make a good team! However, since the last week or so, the tiredness has returned which sucks. I have heard others at 27 weeks complain of lack of energy and exhaustion so I'm not worried or fretting. It's a bit frustrating waking up and still feeling tired. I'm making sure I sleep for an hour or so in afternoons when possible (which sounds really quite lame) but as we're in the last stretch now, I'm trying to make sure I get as much sleep in as possible!

It doesn't help that John & I lie awake for ages with hands all over my bump feeling little one kick for England - it's so cute, especially as it feels like the baby is literally going for a walk inside my tummy. But we are thankful the baby is so active and it's such a blessing to share with each other. In fact, Auntie Tee felt the baby moving on Friday night, which was really lovely and we can't wait for Auntie Elle to come back from university so she can experience that too!
