You know what is awesome??

I will tell you what is awesome... being 23.5 weeks pregnant and having your breast start leaking weird clear shit while you are wearing a thin sports bra and grey tee-shirt in public. That is awesome. I was not even aware this could happen before you gave birth.

Why isn't this shit in what to expect while you're expecting!?!?!?!?!?!??!

19 weeks!

Wow, this week really crawled by... up until now time was FLYING. This is going to be a memorable week though, we get to find out the sex and see Baby Schmieder again in 6 days!!!!

As always, my baby in produce, this week we present- the MANGO

Also, if you are not an avid consumer of the mango, a more practical assessment is that the baby is the size of a fully loaded 6-inch roast beef sun from Subway... MMmmmmmmm

So while sleeping is getting harder and harder , I honestly do feel like I have more energy than I have in months!!! The back pain sucks too, but at least I am learning how to limit that by avoiding standing too long, hunching over, etc. Our next adventure... figuring out how the heck to find some parenting/childbirth classes. That should be interesting.....

17 Weeks

Already.....

So I have been feeling SOOOOOO much better, aside from the fact I get a nice rager of a headache every afternoon. The doctor thinks the headaches are either

1- hormones and will go way over the next few weeks

2- I need new glasses- pregnancy is making my eyes wacky, and I need a stronger prescription (i get them in the afternoon usually)

3- She is convinced I have T.M.J and that is contributing somewhat..... she said this can definitely effect the head, and because they are in the frontal lobe it is highly likely. ( All this from having a woman hold my face while I opened my jaw 4 times)

I think it is because at less than 1 month to 28 years old I am cutting a wisdom tooth in the back corner of my mouth and it is KILLING me! Needless to say diagnosing this could cost a pretty penny, so for now I have invested in a $7.99 in a bottle of tylenol.

Anywho- I am almost half way there, so I thought I would share not only the piece of produce that most accurately describes the baby, but an actual photo as well.... Enjoy :)

I miss the Shore

I went to the shore Sunday night, I was so excited to go hang out on the beach on Monday, and needless to say, that did not happen.  I had a little bit of work to do, so I ran out to the store, and then offered to make my mom and Mike dinner, so I stopped in A&P.  I walked in and the stench of rotten fish and veggies was so overwhelming, I immediately scrapped the rest of my work, laid down and felt like I did three weeks ago when I spent every day huddled over the toilet. I think it was the combination of the heat and the grocery store, but man, it was rough, and my day at the beach turned into anything but.... 

 just wanted to vent.

Morning, really???

Where I have spent the last 4 days... hopefully not many more....

"morning" sickness my ass... try entire day....

week 7 here I come
