Is anyone else incredibly bored?

Rant

I feel like I haven't heard many women complain about this aspect of pregnancy. I'm 18w3d with my first (and unplanned!) pregnancy. I'm super excited but I am also bored out of my skull. I miss being able to have a drink or go out. I've been skipping activities due to fatigue and most nights I just end up going to bed early. On top of that, I recently had a severe allergic reaction for the first time ever and it was super scary so now I'm nervous to be outside for very long (the reaction was from bug bites).

​

Overall it's a pretty mild complaint, all things considered, because the baby and I are healthy and doing well. But this part of pregnancy is boring as hell. Hopefully it feels less boring when I start to feel movement in there!
