Here We Go...



For the first 7 months of this pregnancy I have been living on easy street. No morning sickness, reasonable weight gain, no gestational diabetes, etc. I feel very lucky to have had 7 months of bliss. But, I think that bliss has come to an end. In just the last 5 days I have started to fully understand why women who are at 9 months want nothing more than to get the baby out of them! I left work early yesterday as I think Baby C. was dancing into my upper rib cage and made it nearly impossible to breathe or walk, she has started using my bladder as a trampoline which leaves me panicked that I'm going to have an accident in public. She must not like certain foods as I've taken to getting acid reflux each afternoon/evening. My calves are so tight they feel like I've just run a marathon and I assure you I haven't been runnning anywhere. That's all for now...I need to go walk around because my back hurts.

Oh, lord...this reminds me of my intake of Tums. I was consuming them like candy. I asked Mitch to grab me some Tums one night, and when he asked how many I replied with four or five. He responded, with "that's all".
