Baby bumpin’ and being vulnerable

So now being in the 24th week of pregnancy, I’m really starting to notice the effect of carrying a growing baby. Shifts in many aspects of myself, from mood till energy, sleep rythm and need for rest, and so forth. And the obvious growing baby bump which makes some physical shifts (certain things I cannot do anymore – like carrying to much at once, and some things I totally prefer – like being in balasana, all the time:)).

What seems to be the most puzzeling is how the head some days are just not following the rest of the shifts. Like when planning of normal to-do’s suddenly is not managable anymore because its simply too much. Or when i pass the mirror and my body look a lot different then I imagine in my head. “Where did that big belly come from!?!”

So then there is only one thing to do. Nothing. Meaning, as little as possible. Taking rest, being caring towards myself, and simply just be.

Today is such a day. Taking rest:)
