So now I’m technically full term I’m so ready to do this! I’m so sick of the numb fingertips, the swollen ankles….but honestly I suppose it could be worse. I think I may have had some Braxton Hicks (fake) contractions last night. I usually sleep until about 2-3am and then wake up having to pee. [...]

Swelling.
So I haven’t written in awhile, mostly because I’ve been going downhill fast. I have developed what is apparently a temp version of carpel tunnel in my right arm. I have to sleep with a hand/wrist/arm brace thingy. Then my fingertips have been numb for a few days in both hands. Swelling in my hands [...]

Here we are…29 weeks.
Let’s see what’s been going on.
BB has moved a bunch so for the most part the back/rib pain is minimal. However, that has just led the way for other issues. Now I’m back to the peeing all the time, some pelvis uncomfortable-ness, some swollen ankle-age (just when I’ve been working an event and standing too [...]

Push Presents ?!?!!?!?!
I’m on my BabyCenter.com “Blizzard Babies” bulletin board and there’s this whole discussion about “Push Presents”. So a bunch of women are talking about whether or not their husbands bought them anything after giving birth. PUSH PRESENTS. Whoa.
One lady was already saying she hinted to her DH (Dear Husband) that she wanted a COACH BAG. WTF? Another [...]

Back Problems.
About four years ago, when I was still in New Orleans I switched from birth control pills to the Depo shots. I gained 20 pounds in two months with resulting back issues. I slowly figured out what had caused my issues, but had to be put in Physical Therapy and had to lose most of [...]

Overshare.
For awhile there, I was having a really really hard time wiping after I pee’d. Seriously, it would run down my leg before I could twist myself correctly to get to it. So I now have a new method that works better, but who knew that that particular everyday thing would become so hard. AND [...]

Shopping for maternity clothes.
So I figured I should look around and I’ve been needing some pants/shorts, so I went to Target first ’cause I always thought it would be cool to shop their Liz Lange line. Bummer! They only had like four racks of maternity clothes total? WTF? I wanted these pants. But they didn’t have my size, so [...]

10 Weeks=Kumquat!
So technically, I’m not 10 yet, but in a few days I will be. I have my first ultrasound next Wednesday, and by then I really should be that far along. Feeling super bloaty today, and think I’m starting to get some small pooch in the lower lower lower ad area.

ugh.
So I’m sitting here at work and can barely stand it. One – I don’t have any work to do and that’s boring. Two – I feel like shit.
The cold symptoms were mostly gone, but sleeping with Joe whose cold has progressed to a cough level has raised my sickness back from the dead. [...]

Since then….
I’ve had sore tits, vague nausea, and a strange (cramp-like) stretching sensations in my ovary area. I got like a nasal thing four days ago which was the pits. I think it’s due to the switching on of our air conditioning window units in the house. I think they dried everything up. Anyway, i called [...]
