Taken at 29 weeks:
I wish people would stop telling me I look small (well, except for the girl at Starbucks who upon handing me my chai exclaimed that “holy moly you’ve gotten SO BIG!”), because the 25 pounds of baby and baby-related stuff I’m carrying around (did you know you gain about four pounds of just blood? Your blood volume doubles!) certainly makes me feel like a Mack truck. Especially when I try and hurl myself out of bed.
Also, recent activity points to gestation of feral cat, not baby. A feral cat who has been trapped in a bag and is fighting his way to get out at all costs.
Or, you know, future World Cup soccer star. In which case, keep pummeling my insides, baby boy. Mama would love a closet full of Louboutins.
Happy weekend!

Oh my God, I hope people NEVER stop telling me how small I look when I’m pregnant, haha!

Haha ok, I see what you mean. But I just feel so giant right now that I guess it feels almost a little insulting when people are like, “Oh, you’re not THAT big,” as I’m huffing and puffing just to get out of the car 🙂

Hehe! I had some guy tell me the other day “What? You got twins in there or somethin’?” I wanted to punch his face off. No, jerk. I’m 29 weeks preggo. And you’re about to die. kthxbai
Can you believe we’re going to get BIGGER?! I can’t. Seriously. It’s blowing my mind. 😉
‘Mama would love some Louboutins.’ LOL!

I had a coworker tell me he didn’t realize I was pregnant until this week (I’m 36 weeks!!!) because my “face didn’t change.” I wanted to be like, “What, is it supposed to say ‘baby’ on my forehead or something??” LOL
I hate hoisting myself out of bed every morning. I keep thinking about how great it’s going to be to get out of bed not pregnant… but then I remember I’ll be getting up every few hours for an infant and won’t feel rested and I just feel bummed… like it’s going to be years before I enjoy sleeping again.
The other day I said our little boy is practicing to be the next Lord of the Dance. It felt like he was doing a jig. lol

I read this and thought of you. It’s kind of interesting. http://www.boingboing.net/2010/04/07/science-question-fro-7.html
(I always thought parents who talked to and read books to their unborn children were kind of weird, but now I have to eat my words. I will definitely be doing it someday!)

unfortunately I think the people who keep telling you that you look small are those who think they are “eating for two.” 🙂

Gosh right before I read the post, I thought, “gosh she looks good, hasn’t gained anything but her belly” SORRY, but you look too cute! I know you probably aren’t feeling like it but you are!

Does your feral baby have the hiccups as well? I wasn’t a fan but it was funny to feel.
