Lately I have experienced some new pregnancy related side-effects (Some that I didn't see coming.)
1. The belly is in the way! I have literally ruined 2 shirts while trying to cook in the kitchen not realizing that my extended belly is rubbing in spaghetti sauce or today--bleach! I now will have to wear an apron while cooking...
2. My balance is ridiculous. I have stumbled more times than I can count and the best happened the other day at school when I grazed right into 5 science projects that lined the halls. My third graders thought it was a little too funny! :)
3. Stupidity. I waste hours every day forgetting what I was about to do and having to retrace my steps until I can remember. I now know what dementia feels like.
4. Weird dreams. I have had some of the most crazy and realistic dreams lately!
5. Constant tossing and turning. I can't get comfortable for more than 15 minutes or so at night without having to flip over to the other side. I guess my body is prepping for the sleepless nights ahead.

Woohoo!..you're a blogger now! This really is the best way to keep all of your friends and family updated. And I'm so excited to be able to follow your journey!
ReplyDelete...and I think you might be the cutest pregnant lady I've ever seen:)
I feel your pain, girl. Unfortunately, I am still suffering from the baby brains. I am beginning to wonder if it will ever go away! Hope to see ya soon! We had a blast when you guys were here and Iris loves her Valentines bear.
ReplyDeleteMore stories! Especially those of you stumbling/taking out the hard work of schoolchildren (or perhaps the children themselves?) And C.A.L.L. M.E. this weekend. We need to plan a bit. I think KD is heading up this way on Sunday so we can talk turkey, as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see that you are a blogger! Can't wait to read more! Now, I just need to update mine...it's been way too long. We are very excited for you both! I have to laugh along with you at #'s 3 & 4 on your list. The dreams are wild, aren't they? And I hate to say it, but the stupidity doesn't go away! I used to blame it on my pregnancy brain, now I blame it on the mom brain. It is especially bad with two kids! Just enjoy the ride---it is all worth it!!!!!
