3 posts including this one until the end of Nablopomo. I don’t know if I will be able to post much in February once the baby arrives.
I can say I have been so lucky that I have gone through my pregnancy without much trouble. I am only starting the uncomfortable stretch where it hurts, it feels like being outside my pyjamas is not normal, sleep is full of un-nightmarish nightmares (I wake up all sweaty from a dream that doesn’t feel like it’s a nightmare), I’m tired, I’m impatient, all I want to do is eat.
I started drinking more coffee again. There was a risk of premature birth but now that I’m in 38th week, the risk is not there anymore.
I worry about contractions. I keep wondering if what I’m feeling is a contraction or the baby moving or what. I will know when it happens. But until then…
What I won’t miss :
- snoring
- drooling when I sleep (more than usual)
- stuffy nose
- colds
- not being able to bend at my waist
- people treating me like I’m made of glass
- being so damn hot all the time
- sweaty feet
- having to pee a million times a day
What I will miss :
- people leaving me their seat in the subway
- all the alone time in the world
- feeling the baby inside me
- having a good excuse for having a big round belly
- luxurious hair
- beautiful nails
- leg hair that doesn’t grow
What I’m looking forward to :
- eating brie
- eating sushi
- drinking 3 cups of coffee a day
- going back to my more intense training
- seeing my bf with the baby
- seeing the baby for the 1st time
- counting toes and fingers
- hearing his voice
- watching him sleep
- long walks with the baby and the daddy
