Don't Cross A Preggo Woman, Or She Might Bite Your Head Off

My older sis told me a story one time about when she was pregnant (with her 2nd or 3rd kid, I don't remember).  She was driving (in Memphis traffic-which could make any non-pregnant person want to react the same way) one day, when another car cut her off (actually, I think it was an SUV that cut off her SUV).  She was so pissed that, when they pulled up to the next red light, she took her slushy (that she had just bought), got out of her car and went and poured it all over the other car's windshield.  Obviously, the other person (I think a woman) was in shock.  She feels bad about the incident, but at the time, it was what the lady deserved.

Honestly, (never a road-rager) I never fully understood that story--until now.

I have yet to feel that crazy road rage, but I have been faced with other situations.

I've been a good girl and haven't poured slushy down someone's back...yet.  :-)

Hormones are creepy.

I'm Getting Cankles

Ew.

And chipmunk cheeks.

Ew.

And have outgrown half my shirts (in the past two weeks!)

Ouch.

Now I'm just waiting on my pants.  To pick up and leave as well.

I need to go preggo sundress shopping.

:-)

Except I still won't be able to hide the cankles...

Or chipmunk cheeks...

Here's to the rain coming so I don't feel too sweaty to work out and be more sweaty...

(When it does come, I'll have to work out like crazy before it just turns muggy!)

Oh, and my legs/butt are going to go soon as well, as I just traded in my bicycle for a xe om to and from work.

So much for sleeping off the fat lol

And they say this is normal...

Oye, oye, oye

they come in 3's, 4's, 5's, ......

It seems like every other week I'm finding out that another friend is pregnant!

At the moment, I can count 5, no, 6--besides myself,

(that makes 2 sets of three's...) (does that make for double luck?)

--ranging between about to pop-to-due about when I am.

Honestly, very exciting!

There had been a lull in my friend's pregnancies--it seemed to clump in the early-mid 20's and I assumed the next group would be in the early-mid 30's.

Really nice to meet some other late 20's/early 30's hanging with me.

(and none, None--married or not--i take that back, maybe one was planned-the rest-no planO---How's that for learning with age ;-}  --but the couple who did plan already had one, so they don't really count--although another couple, who didn't plan, had one as well--when you have one, go ahead and have two, or two more--your kids will thank you later :-})
(You will thank you later!)

*I have word that my next one will be adopted*
that's Okay

12 weeks might be over...

...but some 1st trimester symptoms are not...

on and off nausea and headaches are the main things--which lead to fatigue when they don't let me get much rest

hunger is back, and stronger than ever

here come the midnight runs to...whatever street cafe is open?  ugh...

i'll do my best to stock up before i go home at night, i think, instead...
