10 Weeks and Counting!
Actually, not "and counting". If I had my way, I'd be pregnant forever. I love pregnancy - so far almost everything about it. The worst thing is not having anything to wear, and that's not so bad. Of course there are some not so wonderful things - like swelling, soreness, difficulty breathing, etc. But these things are nothing compared to the feeling of a growing baby inside me! I still cannot get over the little foot or hand poking me. Whenever the baby does this, I take the opportunity to greet and massage the little body part through my tummy - a great bonding moment. It makes me so happy and I like to think all the happy chemicals that are produced in me get passed onto the baby and the baby is happy too. I know one thing - the baby will already know me when he or she is born and we will be quite familiar with each other already. This is like no other relationship in history - the closest thing is with my twin who I now appreciate even more, especially given she has carried 5 babies including one set of twins!! Crazy and awesome! Let the pregnancy moments continue!

Looking great Leslie! I think I weighed 154 lb when I was about 4 WEEKS pregnant, not 30!!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say hi, I enjoyed your blog! Unfortunately, I can't make it to your baby shower (although a trip to Ohio sounds fantastic!), but Matthew, Henry and I wish you lots of fun. Hopefully you get lots of those reuseable diapers. Let me know which ones you like best. I myself am looking into buying Fuzzi Buns One size diapers.
Best of luck to you and Tim for the rest of your pregnancy. I truely wish you a speedy delivery and a healthy baby. Now that I have my little boy I can give you some smuck advise: Enjoy all the time you have with Tim by yourself right now. Once that little baby arrives all attention focuses on him or her. I never thought it myself, but 24/7 it's just baby...
Take care. Love Manja!
You're a crazy girl! Pregnant forever? Gah! The rate my little one is growing and kicking, I'm pretty sure nine months is just long enough! :)
ReplyDeleteBut I do know what you mean. I was a little sad the other day thinking about how my baby will never be this close to me again. *sniff* I think I need to baby wear, so we can still be together and cozy (or HOT thanks to Summer).
