I totally missed last week’s belly picture. It was my first week back to work with the kids. I was SO tired.
I’m really starting to look and feel pregnant now. The stomach is stretching out more and more. As of right now, I don’t have stretch marks. But I told that to a friend. She said, “Yeah me, too…until the last two weeks of the pregnancy. THEN I got them.” So I am not counting my chickens just yet.
The most annoying part is that I am constantly hungry AND full at the same time. Noodles take up so much room…but I have the pangs of hunger. When I do eat…and eat one too many bites, I am SO uncomfortable for hours. It actually hurts.
Speaking of hurting, we have a soccer player. Fortunately his head is down below, but he’s constantly kicking my ribs…almost like he’s trying to get footing there to move around. I do enjoy watching him turn. It’s fascinating and completely weird at the same time.
Oh, btw, have been having Braxton Hicks contractions for about a month now. Normal…but for a few days I was having them one on top of the other.
And the swelling. I have Vienna sausages for toes! AND I can leave indentation marks on the top of my foot! Very sexy. Not!
Aaah…noodles! you look so cute in your mommas belly. I know you cant see her..but she looks GORGEOUS!! Okay, she says she has vienna sausage toes, but she’s only showing in her belly and looks adorable.
Can’t wait to welcome you in this world! and in the meantime, be gentle on mommas ribs!
