Pregnancy

Things That I Find Random with Pregnancy

  • If something makes me upset/sad I either get angry or weepy. There is NO imbetween.... and I used to be able to hide it better.
  • Seems like pregnancy symptoms (i.e. ligament stretch pain, nausea, swollen feet) can go on for days and then randomly disappear! Or come for "flash moments" and then POOF! They vanish.
  • I notice that I am starting to waddle a tiny bit. I am assuming that will only get worse the larger my bump becomes.
  • I dislike that when I get a chiropractic adjustment. It only lasts about 24 hours... if that.
  • I am, as of today, 27 weeks, and a lot of people still don't seem to notice I'm pregnant. C'mon people. However, my tummy skin isn't even tight yet, so I'm assuming Baby Girl has a bit more room to grow before my skin gets "tight & itchy".
  • The other day I spotted this weird line protruding, and stretching from the middle of my bump, straight up to my ribs. When I pushed, it was pretty solid. So, I had Bryan feel it. We're pretty sure that was a leg or an arm... maybe a backbone.
  • No one could prepare me for the weird dreams.
  • I've never felt so much creativity block. I must be putting a lot of pressure on myself since every project I come up with for the nursery turns into a disaster!
  • THANKFULLY! No one has randomly come up and started rubbing my stomach like Buddha. Maybe I've perfected the "don't touch" vibe... or maybe they don't know I'm pregnant.
  • I can't believe that in a few more months she will be here. I'm so siked. It seems so far away.
  • As of Monday, I can't stop thinking about everything baby. Nursery. Baby Shower. Baby. Clothes. Baby. Pink. Baby. Brown. Baby. Flowers. Baby. Projects.
If my upcoming projects work out... which consists of updating a lamp shade, making a nursing cover, and decorating the walls... I will be happy to post pictures :)

Creative block? I like to call it pregnancy brain :) I couldn't think straight half the time. I even over boiled a pot of eggs and placed the hot pot on my mother in law's Formica counter top. She now has granite :)

Definately pregnancy brain! It is crazy what happens to your body when you are pregnant. The aches, the hips coming out all the time, wierd symptoms that come and go, and the emotions - can't forget the crazy emotions! Fun stuff! The best part is feeling and seeing them move around. It is so exciting that you have 13 weeks left. Yeah!

Yep, you are a normal, healthy pregnant woman. I hope everything continues to go well. We cannot wait to see/meet her.

You have had a pretty good pregnancy in spite all those things! It is pretty weird experiencing all those things. Can't believe how close we are to seeing her. Good times ahead!
