Pre-prenatal

[bubbles]

I had my first (3-hour!) Dr. appointment, and the only thing I really got out of it was an appointment for an "initial exam" next week, and the unfortunate news that I have already gained enough weight to see me through the first trimester (my appetite -- all my appetites -- are in hyperdrive at the moment). For those of you who asked how far along I am, I'm due in October, so... not very. I'm a planner, though. I appreciate the early notice.

My family keeps saying, "I can't wait!! I bet you can't wait!" I'm like, I don't have to wait. I'm pregnant right now. I'm phenomenally excited about that. Especially this part. I mean, I'm bummed that I had to drop my cardio Hip Hop class because my breasts are too sore to take the all that bouncing, and I guess I won't be hot tubbing or doing Hot Yoga for a while, but really? Once the baby's born I won't have a lot of time and energy for that sort of thing anyway. At least now I can sleep 8 hours a night -- in a row, even. Yeah, I can totally wait. My newfound patience is boundless.

hahaha! Its not the threat of doom--its the threat of frequent wakings :p When it starts happening, just go to bed earlier so you have a little extra sleep time to make up for all the nocturnal trips to the bathroom :p
