2 weeks and 5 days to go. According to the fruit charts and my handy little What to Expect app on my phone the baby is now a watermelon. This, to me, is the most appropriate food on those stupid fruit charts. That and maybe the raspberry…remember when the baby was a raspberry? So darling. … Continue reading »

The Homestretch
We only have 4 weeks to go, unless Gummy decides to be fashionably late. I don’t even like thinking about that possibility right now. The weekly doctor’s visits will start this week and, if I remember correctly, the weekly pelvic exams. Yippee! I don’t even care what my nether regions probably look like at this … Continue reading »
Seven.
I tried to come up with a cute little title for this blog, buy my Braxton Hicks are killing my concentration. Usually, I only have maybe one or two at night. This is the first time I’ve had to deal with them at work and these are probably the most uncomfortable contractions so far. We … Continue reading »
I’m Pregnant And I Know It
If this doesn’t make your day brighter, then you must be way more hormonal than I am.
My Cheese Is Soft.
I’m fairly certain I mentioned in my last blog the horrible attitude that I’ve developed this trimester. Some days I feel like a toddler that wants to just slam their ass down on the floor and have a fit – not for any reason other than nothing seems to please me or to be going … Continue reading »
Single Digits
I’ve come out of my state of hormonal imbalance hiding! The single digit countdown has begun. We are sitting at 8 weeks and 5 days until D-Day and I will admit that the third trimester has gotten to me. We’ve entered the phase of hot flashes and swollen feet. It’s not pretty. My hormones are out … Continue reading »
The Way To A Pregnant Girls Heart
This morning Mike and I got up earlier than usual and made breakfast for the kids. Ok, so we both got up early, but he made breakfast. I cut the strawberries and put out cards and candy for everybody, because I’m awesome like that. I wasn’t expecting anything, but behold! a heart-shaped box and various … Continue reading »
15 Weeks To Go?!
I hit 25 weeks today. Why do I feel like it’s “crunch time”? Maybe because: 1. Things I have for the baby = one onesie that may or may not fit when Gummy is born, depending on her weight. And a stuffed carrot sporting a mustache that I bought months ago. 2. I am still … Continue reading »
Like Riding a Bike
I had recently made reference to the fact that I might be a little frightened that I don’t know how to care for a baby anymore, since my youngest is 9 and I have hardly even been in the room with an infant since she was little. All my worries are now over. And if … Continue reading »
Wordless Wednesday: Pregnant Women Love Candy
Regular candy AND eye candy. Thanks to the pregnant chicken for coming up with these arousing, yet hilarious pictures, which she refers to as “pregnant porn”. If you haven’t been on her site, you should visit.
A Ride on the Emotional Roller Coaster
I had my first pang of anxiety today over the baby. I have spent the last 23 weeks as a solid rock of courage and nonchalance. Mike would ask me if I was nervous or scared about any of it, even the littlest bit. I was dead serious when I looked him in the eye … Continue reading »
Yes, I Have to Pee. Again.
22 weeks, 3 days…and counting. ”Honeymoon” trimester? I don’t know about all that. It’s better than the first and not as bad as the third. As Mike so kindly pointed out last night (thanks baby), it’s pretty much all downhill from here. I don’t know what it is about this pregnancy, but I’ve been completely … Continue reading »
The Headless Chicken
So, I keep coming back here to blog…I had planned on writing a funny blog on a few things I learned during my week-long vacation, but I just haven’t gotten to it this week. Running around like a chicken with my head cut off, making sure everything is set for the wedding tomorrow, has taken … Continue reading »
