Water broke. Funny, the movies never say anything about needing to stand on towels in the kitchen while ya leak for an hour or so.

Still pregnant. I was hoping the full moon would entice the little man on out, but I guess it’s too cozy in there

Going to the airport, picking up my bestie tonight. She’s flying in from CO to be my personal assistant/masseuse/antistick-in-the-mud chill on her spring break. The next day we’re going to a happy hour, and the day after that, voodoo donuts, and the day after that, studying still. But I always get out and do more things that I want to do when she’s around. There’ll be...

Good Morning
I feel like I just went horseback riding for the entire night, on a really hard saddle. Also, I dreamed I was reviewing my notes. All night. So, there’s that. I can’t tell if I’m pleased because I had extra time to review my notes, or irritated that I didn’t get any rest. Currently predicting afternoon naps with a chance of lazy for the rest of the day.

Silly, what did you think was going on there?
J and I were laying on the couch last night, and since R was having one of his dance parties, I grabbed J’s hand and put it on my belly. J flinched, gave me this wide-eyed expression, and exclaimed : “He’s so big! He can’t stay in there!” Uh, yeah. I wasn’t kidding when I said the kid was trying to push my stomach out through my throat. As soon as we...

TMI
I just looked at the size on the bra I bought today. It’s a 36 J. J Holy crap. In summary, if you want to go from a 32 C to a 36 J without hitting the saline fun bags, pregnancy is apparently the way to go. I think the next size up might be a wheelbarrow.

Fizzle
well, I’m still pretty mentally not here. However, after 20 hours, we have fizzled. No bigs, I was worried about finishing up stab lab and doing the gyn exam this week anyway. If he wanted to wait until those two things were over, that’d make my life way, way easier. On the upside, I used the motivation of possibly not having any time left to: Buy a nursing bra Talk to the registrar...

So not even mentally here. The irregular contractions are, though, so I’m ditching lecture right now to finish all of the assignments for another class. I also acquired a nursing bra. Which I immediately put on. This is the most comfortable non-underwire bra I’ve ever worn. It’s amazing how much more motivated I am with an undetermined time frame comprised entirely of an active...

In the past week I’ve burst into tears, then tried to explain to my husband that I wasn’t sad and had no idea why I was crying. felt a total 180 flip from “what a beautiful morning, I’m going to have such a productive day” to “I hate everyone and I just want to stay in my house and watch tv” over something so innocuous as a classmate failing to say hello...
