feeling different lately. no that anyone wants to actually read this, but it feels like someone kicked me straight in the hoo-hah. i swear its bruised. i think marco did it to me while i was sleeping as revenge for not taking out the trash.
my hands are so swollen that i had to take off my engagement ring and only wear my wedding band bc its a 1/2 size bigger. when i wake up in the morning my arms down to my hands are numb like a raw peice of meat. then through out the day i still have numb spots on some fingers. marco says its just the swelling....i say...im in the process of losing my appendages.
i will have to learn to pick up our children with my toes. or get bionic arms and hope to not stab them with my hooks for hands.
i guess i should be thankful that my nose hasnt swelled up like most womens do...mine is still mexican sized and hopefully will not progress on to african size.
so, i can clearly feel the babys head has dropped and in position. thank goodness, one less worry for me to know i wont have a breech baby. i have been faithfully, well kinda faithfully, the exercises that the birth instructor has us do daily to ensure no breech and good muscle tone for mama.
marco and i went camping last weekend and slept on a cheap blowup bed that we have had for a while. it was actually really nice to get out and spend time together.the only thing i had a hard time doing was walking,eating,sitting, and breathing. other than that it was great....lmao....kidding!! i only had a hard time with the camp chairs and getting out of them! great time! then this weekend my all time favorite (aside from celine dion,elton john,and old mariah carey) group "boyz to men" were at the state fair and had a free concert!!! bah!!! i was in heaven! so while marco worked i made out with myself at the concert :)
had some weird dreams the past few nights of the baby. one was that i saw something poking out from under my shirt and when i lifted it up there was the babys foot sticking out. the baby had poked through the uterine lining and scratched through my skin to get a foot out. then last night i had a dream that my friend annette had a baby and i nursed it for her....then i woke up puking at the thoguht lol
my sleep has been really sporadic. im getting really tired of sleeping only on my sides.
stretchmark status is good. still only one little 1/2 inch one on my side and weight gain last week at the midwife office was a total of 14lbs this whole pregnancy. i patted myself on the shoulder since i didnt get one from them...bitches. but i hear a lot from people that i look like all belly which is tastey for my withering self image.
i still havent aqcuired the "waddle" as some girls do but i got the whiney "i wanna be pampered by everyone" down pretty good.
all in all i am really quite proud of myself with this whole weight gain and still being active. i am not THAT miserable (depending on the day) but i still say that being pregnant is too restrictive and not for me. i feel like i have a police officer constantly pulling me over and giving me warning tickets.
"pull over....maam you know you shouldnt be thinking about mcdonalds its horrible for your baby-first warning"
"maam, have you been talking on your cell phone?thats bad for the baby bc of the radio frequency it puts out, i dont think i need to tell you that if you continue this behavior your baby will have toenails growing from its privates"
"woooh...pull ova!! maam do you know why i pulled you over? do you know that you havent done your kegel exercises for almost 2 days now? violation of code 1900-LKY-BLDR.
im gonna have to take you in to the station"
stupid cops.
