Today was a better day. I don't know if it was all the crying or just that I haven't really been getting good rest, but I was exhausted last night. I slept for at least 11 hours. I didn't feel super refreshed when I woke up, but I wasn't sad either and that's a step in the right direction. Thanks to all of you for your supportive words and kind thoughts yesterday, they meant a lot to me.
I survived my first night alone (almost, Adam will be home in a little over an hour). It was important to me to try and I'm glad I did. There were times I was a little sad, but overall it felt good to have a semblance of what our lives used to be like. Plus I'm never really alone, we have 3 dogs and a cat, not to mention my family and friends are just a phone call or text away. Thank goodness for technology.
I also started Couch25K today. I'll fully admit I was not the most healthy to start my pregnancy. I'm overweight and not the most active, but I did change a lot once I found out I was pregnant. I started walking more often and changed what I ate. I'm going to continue to do so. I can't control a lot right now it seems, but I can control my health. I also think having a routine will help me. It's something I know I'll do every day (I'll just walk on the rest days) and it'll be a time to myself.
So here's to my first night alone and starting new routines.
