Embarking on month 3

Things people never tell you about pregnancy until you are actually pregnant:

Pregnancy actually lasts 10 months. That nine month crap is for the birds.

I'm SO excited to have hit the 3 month mark! I'm SO impatient so, this is just great. I'm really accustomed to the idea of being pregnant now and getting more excited, it that's even possible. I'm starting to show which so far has been the most fun part of being pregnant. But, I'm such a ham about it as I rub my pooch all day, talking to baby as though she is a grown woman. I'm so in love with my baby and with being pregnant and have quickly turned into one of those obesessed with everything baby people that I once made fun of. Ah well.

So, I'm definitely changing. My skin is no longer dry and icky and is actually really gorgeous and soft, I look wonderful if I do say so myself. I haven't been half as hungry as I was in prior weeks and acutally, I can't eat as much as I did because my stomach hurts for hours if I do. I'm still extremely gassy, belching like a hog and making all kinds of noises I really didn't know I could make. I've been having a hard time sleeping for the entire night because

a) I have to pee every hour almost on the hour and
b) I can't seem to find a very comfortable position in which to sleep

I'm still sleepy all of the time.

When I get up in the morning, I have this general feeling of heaviness in my abdomen, boobs, legs and butt which I have to walk off before doing anything else.

But generally, I feel good and of course, I'm very happy.


I've nicknamed the baby Bumble since I have been calling her/him Baby or by the girl nameI have chosen.

I've begun reading to Bumble nightly, this week we are reading Chrysanthemum. Next week we'll probably read Grandmama's Joy.
