I'm beyond tired. Am 35 weeks with DC#2 and have DC#1 who is 3.5. I'm shattered from just taking care of him, trying to tire him out every day (he's a bad sleeper!), picking up after him (it's endless!) and dealing with the usual tantrums and shoes of will. I'm working part time until 3 weeks before my due date. We're about to get a painter in to decorate upstairs and are having to do lots of souring out of the house. Latest house guests (2 adults and a 1 yr old for 2 nights) only left a few days ago and accommodating them involved weird room rejigging and extra tidying (1 yr old plus 3 yr old was a glimpse of the future!). We're wanting to move DC#1 rooms and get their current room set up as the nursery, hence the painting. This means our actual spare room (v small double) will be no more. MIL last visited at end of Feb for the usual couple of nights and is asking if she can come again in April or better wait til after baby arrives in May. Other guests would be friends and their kids (2 and 4) in a couple of weeks. Both would be post-painting and room changing and for 2 nights... Friends have offered to stay in a hotel bit there's still the meals and hosting here in the daytime which makes me tired just thinking about! But we've not seen them for a year and visits post-baby won't be any easier.
I have backache, breathless, and have bad heartburn. DC#1 still invades out bed - and our sleep - most nights. I want to decline both sets of visitors, hotel or not, but DH says I'm being overly grumpy and unreasonable. Am I?
