So I guess I popped while on vacation because I am getting comments about how pregnant I look from everyone I talk to. I don’t feel bigger, but I guess it’s more noticable to others. I have also started panicing. About what, I’m not too sure. I don’t know if it’s about labor, or going home with an infant, not knowing how to get on a schedule, or the next 20 years…. I guess it’s all of that. Oh well, there’s no going back now. I just have to go one day at a time.
I do my glucose test today which I’m very nervous about! Since I do diabetic teaching at my other job, I know I won’t be able to practice what I preach! The diet isn’t complicated, but it’s not fun either. I like starches too much. :)
Baboo and I have returned from New Jersey where we had a delightful time at a company event. We stayed under the tents during the Beach Party and chose not to participate in the hula hoop, limbo, or tug of war contests but we did enjoy some rum-less punch and some poker played with Lorna Doone mini cookies as chips!
I can’t tell you how many comments I got from people along the lines of “you don’t look pregnant!” I guess that’s a good thing but I kept telling them I would be happy to pull down my pants/skirt and show them the pooch if they really wanted to see! :-) It wasn’t until Tuesday night when I wore a dress that someone said, “okay, you look pregnant now..at least from the side.” So maybe they believe me after all. It was bizarre to get all the concern for my physical well-being– I constantly was asked, “how are you feeling?” and “are you doing okay?” Since these comments were often followed by, “you know, you can just leave this meeting and go lie down if you’re tired, ” I’m thinking I might just stay preggers forever!
In other baby news, congrats to Seth’s sister and brother-in-law on the birth of Rachel late last night. Apparently it was a relatively quick delivery so I’m sure that’s a relief!!
