I'm back from my OB appointment and I gained 2 more pounds. I know, I know...it has to happen. Mystery fetus is packing on weight, so duh, I'm going to pack on weight.
It's just...
*insert pregnant whine*
I worked HARD to get to a place where I finally felt comfortable in my body again. I finally felt like I wasn't a total lard ass and maybe, just maybe, I could have my old body back. I was wearing skirts and little summer dresses and picking up a tiny bit of swagger. Then--SURPRISE! I'm pregnant. I got two...maybe three months of enjoyment out of my hard-earned body before Mother Nature shat all over it. AGAIN.
Now? I'm pushing numbers that scare the bejesus out of me, and my body shape reminds me of Danny Devito as The Penguin.
*End whine*
In other news...the baby is locked and loaded in a head down position. After months of Dr. Loompa squirting goo all over my stomach and going no where near my Lady Business, I was shocked when he suddenly grabbed...uh...hair...and said, "Baby head right here. Okay?"
Okay! Maybe a little warning next time? So I don't go into a reflexive spasm and almost kick you? thnks.
Also? I'm so over taking the Big Sister along to my appointments. Today was pure hell! She's no longer intimidated by the office, so now she treats it like a playground--rolling on the chairs, spinning on the doctor's chair, telling the nurses that I have LOTS of pee cups in my purse and I NEVER use them, grabbing my cell phone and trying to call people, hiding behind the exam table and SCREECHING while Dr. Loompa is trying to find the heartbeat, and, finally, to top it all off, crying and throwing a fit because she wanted to go to grandma's house.
I'm done. Little Miss Give Me Constant Attention Positive Or Negative can stay with grandma.
Yes, internets, I'm in a lovely mood. You totally want to come hang out with me, don't you?

How much longer until you are due?
Just wondering.
;)
If they do a growth ultrasound at 35-36ish weeks are you going to find out the sex then!?
Sorry, It just popped in my head lolz.
You are still really funny no matter what size. Oh crap you see why I am no longer married a typical man saying stuff that doesn't help at all.
I so sympathize with your "growing" pains. When my pregnant belly hit its max of 54 inches around (triplets) I almost passed out. Seriously. My belly was as big as a Pilates exercise ball. (There are some photos on my blog from 35 weeks, but I'm still too traumatized to look at them.) I'm only 5'2" and all I could think of was the oompa-loompa song from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Hang in there!

I found it almost impossible to lose the weight after the second baby. The first time it was so easy. I feel bad for you that this pregnancy is such a hardship for you, but as soon as you hold that little bundle in your arms, it will be so worth it!
Sooo funny about the hair comment!!!
Use your pregnancy hormones to blast those that need blasting - it's truly cathartic!
I hated the weight gain too. It's very demotivating and not everybody (like the husband) understands or is sympathetic towards it.
