27 weeks.
Good lord where did the time go? I guess I am officially in the uncomfortable stages of pregnancy. My insomnia was getting better but the last few days has gone right back to down right bad. (I’ve been up since about 1:15am) Keelyn kicks up a storm during the day which distracts me from working and now that she’s 2-3 pounds I definitely feel it! I’ve noticed that she likes to hang out on my right side, I don’t know if that has any significant meaning for after she’s born, but she does and she likes to investigate my ribs. I like the fact that I have this constant companion who reminds me every few hours to take a break and enjoy her.
I’ve been feeling very emotional lately. My eyes seem to well up with tears at the littlest things. I just wrote that and it happened! I don’t know whether to just let it out and cry or talk myself out of it and go on with my day. I think it’s a combination of worry and part of me really not enjoying feeling fat everyday. Oh my god, I feel so unattractive. Everyone tells me how great I look, but when I look in the mirror…. Ugh. I also find myself worrying a lot. I worry about after Keelyn is born, I worry that I’m not being healthy enough now, I worry about money, I worry I’m not doing a good job at work, worry worry worry…. I have my glucose testing next week and I’m worried about that!
Sorry, emotional rant for a minute.
I think doctor’s should prescribe that pregnant women get an ultrasound every 2 weeks whether they need it or not. Ultra sounds are always so uplifting and calming (for me anyway).
