30 Weeks

August 5, 2010

1. Sleeping has gotten a lot more uncomfortable since I can only be on my left side, he kicks like mad when I sleep on my right and I can't sleep on my back.

2. No one tells you about the leg and calf cramps you get in the middle of the night.

3. Women who ask you if you are having twins when you are 6.5 months pregnant "mean well".

4. I finally was full last night before I was done with my dinner. I think I am transitioning into smaller portions, thank goodness!!!

5. Nesting comes and goes, right now it is here and I am loving it.

6. Kevin noticed that when I bend down to get something, I don't bend, I squat.

7. I cry all the time, most of the time I don't even know why. No reason needed. My cheeks are well hydrated.

8. Everything I do needs a couple extra breaths, including, getting in the car, pouring a cup of water, getting up from the couch and even breathing itself.

9. Now that I am at the point where the baby is just getting bigger and bigger with each week, it has really reminded me that his highway is NOT getting bigger.

10. Shaving my legs in the shower looks like a fat kid on the tight rope.

11. Kev and I ate out at a restuarant the other night and he had to slide in one end of the booth because I would not fit.

12. If you ask me what we plan on naming our baby and I tell you, please don't look like you just ate some old yams you found in the fridge.

13. If at first you don't succeed, cry hysterically, apologize to your husband for the tantrum and then try again.

14. Should I be concerned that our baby is too long when I can feel him reaching around the side of me and kicking me on my back? It might be coming back to haunt me that I used to tell people I was born this height.

15. I love him.
