The baby’s hiccups have decreased from 3-4 times per day to once a day, if even that. It’s a nice break. I notice he gets them shortly after I eat something sugary.
He’s SO big in my belly now, and when I sit crosslegged, it feels like he’s actually sitting in my lap. So much […]

When I should be focusing on things like preparing for birth, I’m not. Instead, I’m having a very hard time sleeping at night, concentrating during the day, and not being able to relax. Ever.
Had I known that moving to Nova Scotia would be so hard on me, I’m not sure I would have. […]

Clive and I attended prenatal classes this weekend (Saturday and Sunday, 9-4). I really liked the classes, even though I don’t think I learned anything new (other than some surprising local statistics about induction, c-sections, episiotomies etc), it was nice to go there and know that Clive was learning a lot of the things I’ve […]

Sometimes I look back at my pregnancy pictures from a few months ago and think, “You’re FUCKING crazy if you thought that belly was big.” And I know that in a couple of more months, I’m going to think I’m FUCKING crazy for thinking my belly is big right now. I can still […]

k) constipation
l) 40lb weight gain
m) GG boobs
I’m definitely in the Honeymoon Phase. I am certain of this because I am already thinking […]

These boobs are enormous. E-N-O-R-M-O-U-S.

I thought my boobs were big before! These babies are out of this world. And they’re not even life-giving mechanisms yet.
I find my boobs more uncomfortable than my belly. I have gained weight in my upper arms and there just doesn’t seem to be enough room on my […]

Holy shit, I started leaking colostrum yesterday. 4.5 months along and it seems like everything’s happened within the past two weeks and outside of them happening more (more belly, more leaking nipples, more indigestion, more sleepless nights, more bathroom trips, more boob growth- I’m at a D now) I’ve got nothing left to look forward […]
