What happened to me saying I was going to update this blog often? Yah, I have no idea. I'm so bad.
I'm going along pretty well in this pregnancy. My biggest complaint is my weight gain. I went to the doc yesterday and I've already gained 20 lbs. Yet I'm carrying so small. Seriously it just looks like my ass is pregnant. From the front my belly looks like I've just eaten a big meal. With the tape measure I measure right at 24 weeks but when I stand up it all just spreads out.
Anyway, it makes me somewhat depressed. Since I'm depressed I just want to eat. Since it's 85 degrees outside I want to eat ice cream or something. Since I'm a fat ass I know I shouldn't so instead I'm forced to deal with my anger and emotions and it's nooooo fun!
I've really been good about emotions and mood swings so far during this pregnancy as well. So far no major panic attacks, no ridiculous crying, etc. The one strong emotion that does keep creeping up is anger and general annoyance. That is probably due to my depression about my weight.
The baby has been moving a lot though. That is really special. The kids have been able to feel some kicks/punches too and they think it's really cool. Although on Mother's Day (probably because I laid in bed most of the day) the kid was moving around for like 2 hours straight. I kind of started to get worried but he eventually calmed down. He's sooo low too that he is constantly jumping up and down on my bladder. Not cool. I carried The Bull the same way and whenever hubby would make me laugh when I was pregnant with him I would straight up pee my pants. (TMI???) It hasn't happened with this one so far. I'm doing my kegals so hopefully it won't. :-)
I also got my cervix measured yesterday...exciting I know....and it's 6 inches. According to my doc I have like "the longest cervix ever". Ummm....thanks?
On to non-pregnancy related news, I took Goldilocks to her kindergarten screening this morning. She was worried about it. She didn't want to get any of the answers "wrong". Afterwards though she was fine and reported that she got all of the answers right. They don't tell the kids whether they got the answers wrong or right but I'm glad to hear she's confident she did well.
I'm taking The Bull to the doctor this afternoon to have a weird growth on his neck examined. I'm a little worried about it since he says it hurts. I love our pediatrician and I'm confident that if anything is wrong she will catch it.
That's all I got.
