OK really? I am sooooo happy to be pregnant. I am so grateful everyday that I wake up pregnant, with a growing, wiggling baby in my belly.
But hell. Being fat is no joke.
I don’t care that I’m getting fat for a reason.
I don’t care that “supposedly” I will loose most of this weight postpartum while [...]

What’s new?
1. Had my one hour glucola test this week. 10 weeks early! I did it at work, since we do have a Quest lab there and the girls there are my friends. It was naaaaaaasty. Think super sweet Orange Fanta soda.
2. Discovered that my belly isn’t soft anymore. I can FEEL my uterus. [...]

Ahhhhh, ladies. You all make me laugh!
Hubby got the verbal beat down and promised to never do it again.
Yeah right. And of course, his car needed a new battery today.
Mo money, mo money, mo money.
That we don’t have, that is.
Anyway!

Appointments and Other Things
So today, I had my monthly appointment at the midwife’s office. These appointments are so quick, if I blink I miss them. I saw my favorite midwife/friend today. It’s sooooo wonderful to be taken care of by a friend. I never feel ashamed to tell her anything. But anyway, nothing new, just a heartbeat check. [...]

The first due date
Today is June 18th, 2009.
The official due date of my first pregnancy.
You know, I had almost forgotten. When I had my D&C, I erased or crossed out ever reference to this day. I even bought a new calender. I consciously erased what this day was supposed to be from my mind. But earlier this week, [...]

summertime………..
What is there to say today?
I am hot, I am fat, and I am sweating in places that I didn’t know I could sweat from.
Joy.
No movement from The Boy yet. I’m waiting impatiently to start feeling those kicks and flutters that I see on ultrasound.
Hmmmm.
Did I mention that I am hot?

A Monday morning visit to the urologist……
Soooooooo.
I had been referred to the urologist by my midwife because she noticed a “cyst” on my urethra during a routine pap smear.
So, I had been putting off this visit(I mean really, it didn’t hurt and the $50 co-pay was not enticing me to go.)
But I’m one of those females who has a “coochie” mirror [...]
