Big and Uncomfortable

I am big and uncomfortable, but the thing is, I am not that big.

I think you are laying weird. Or the steroids i have been putting on my bum and making you enormous.

I keep having contractions and hope you will come early. Your father is going to New York City the end of May to hang out with his brother a little. I hope you come way before he has to leave.

I am tired, but I think that has a lot to do with the studying and the house work going on around here. I really can't wait until May.

28 weeks and change

this one got 4 hits on flickr before I even turned to it. a little creepy considering what it is showing.

if you look closely my teeth match my shirt.
a little too much coffee these days.

What is worse than Hemorroids

haveing to ask for hemorrhoid cream when you work in a cubicle.

and having the name of said cream be "Anal Pram"

yay, that doesn't leave much to the imagination.

All Normal

All Normal. I took my glucose test today, and that was normal as well. That is the last test I run until the strep test right before you are born.

I have one more appointment in 4 weeks, then they go to every two weeks.

I weight 189 lbs. I am down 3 lbs from this time in the first pregnancy. i find that funny because I am eating junk and not exercising.

oh well.

and it continues

the tiredness has continued, but I am also becoming more and more excited. I am uncomfortable, more so this time than with your sister. I think you try to put your little fingers under my ribs. I feel like i am way past the 26 weeks I am, I keep thinking the end will be soon.

But it won't be.
At least I hope not.

Your sister is convinced that she has a little sister in her belly. She keeps talking about you and how she can't wait to see you. She says hi to my belly and rubs it. I don't think she really comprehends. At this age, anything i tell her is the truth.

Where are your testes?

Your baby now weighs about a pound and two-thirds and measures 14 inches (an English hothouse cucumber), from head to heel. The nerve pathways in her ears are developing, which means her response to sounds is growing more consistent. Her lungs are developing now, too, as she continues to take small breaths of amniotic fluid — good practice for when she's born and takes that first breath of air. If you're having a boy, his testicles are beginning to descend into his scrotum — a trip that will take about two to three days.
