  How does that Duggar woman keep up? I read today that she is pregnant with baby #18. I don't know how she keeps going.
  
  This is my 3rd pregnancy, 4th baby. I'm utterly EXHAUSTED. I barely function, to tell the truth. I work full time during the day, go home to my kids - take care of them, bath, and by 8 pm, Bella and I are in bed together and I'm on the verge of going into an immediate deep sleep.
  
  I was telling Slawek last night how difficult this pregnancy has been on me. I don't know if it's the fact that I'm 35, or that we did IVF/FET to conceive this frozen embryo, or that we have 3 toddlers at home (or maybe ALL OF THE ABOVE), but I am completely exhausted and out of time to do most anything these days.
  
  The morning sickness has gotten MUCH better. Today wasn't such a great day, but generally I am feeling better these days. I'm hoping that by 16 weeks it is completely gone. I have maybe 1 bad day and then 4-5 good days. Up until today, I have had an entirely great week!
  
  I am continuing to take 2 iron supplements a day for my anemia. I seem to always become anemic when pregnant (which I am sure doesn't help with my exhaustion).
  
  I am feeling better and better after my surgery. Looking forward to my ultrasound this next week (gender determination!??!?!?!?!) and appt. with Dr. Lambers.
  
  Happy Mother's Day all!
