- 5 weeks left! Insane but so exciting. I am almost all the way “nested” for this little girl. This weekend I finished the mobile and hung it, put her name on the wall, sorted all the hand me down clothes I have into 3 tubs according to size, organized her room and got all my nursing and bottles ready for her. Pictures to come on a couple of these!
- I am a nursing mama! I am nervous that she will be tougher to nurse then Eyan was, but I am determined, but of course I have bottles so that Eyan and hubby can help with feedings and have that bonding. And-Plus-Also Kaiser is giving me a FREE medela pump thanks to Obamacare. Seriously that rocks and now I have 2 that are fantastic!
- So I either broke my wrist or have carpel tunnel from pregnancy happening. My right wrist is killing me if I carry anything over the weight of a paper plate, or rotate it or write or well even typing is a pain. I hope I just strained it or something. Who knows how the hell that happened, but you know if its a random injury, its going to happen to me.
- Things that make me happy with this pregnancy which I hope stay that way:
- No new stretch marks (I mean seriously I doubt they could get any worse anyway but hey its something)
- No linea nigra. That stupid ugly line took forever to go away last time
- My weight gain! I am still well within range…which I totally wasn’t with Eyan
- My blood pressure…is amazing
- I am still wearing my nice wedding ring. I have 2 one that is for when I am a swollen pregnant lady that is not all blingy and then my actual wedding ring. It still fits and makes me happy.
- Things that make me unhappy
- My consumption of fast food or take out…bad bad bad
- These darn headaches (which are less painful after a massage and chiropractic adjustment)
- How low this little girl is riding…my poor bladder
- My insane craving for sugar…I seriously make my rounds to every candy drawer, bucket or container in our building sometimes 2x a day.
- The bipolar aspect of my exhaustion vs energy. Its either I am so energized or so dead to the world…no happy mediums for me.
- I only have 5 weeks with Eyan as an only child.
Happy Monday!
