6 months pregnant!!!! I am just now starting to feel the “inconveniences” of pregnancy… Right now my belly is no longer unnoticeable, and it is definitely a hand magnet; which I don’t mind at all. The lady @ the grocery store noticed I was pregnant? You mean it doesn’t just look like an extra layer hanging right above my pant line anymore?? NICE ! My pants still fit but tend to fall down and show a little plumbers crack on occasion since my hip bones are disappearing and are no longer working as suspenders. My shirts are a whole different story; they just keep rolling up my stomach like Gus the mouse in Cinderella. I am determined not to buy maternity clothes and just go with extra large tanks and wife beaters, well see how it works out. I could go on for days about clothes not fitting, but this time when I say “ I have absolutely nothing to wear” looking a closet full of clothes, I really mean it this time and im not just saying it to get Orlo to take me to Kohls and get a cute new top. Besides the 6 pound weight gain, much more has happened since my last blissful post on pregnancy. I make at least 1 trip every 2 hours to the restroom and I wake up at least 3 to 4 times @ night to use the potty, and when I say wake up, I am rarely in a somber sleep. Trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in is difficult when you were a full time belly sleeper pre pregnancy. I am now a “roller” I guess you could call it, sitting straight up out of bed or getting off the couch is not a easy 1-2-3 step anymore, its still easier than its going to be when I’m 8-9 months pregnant but it’s a change for me and it’s a pain in my butt. I just do a backward rocking movement before I sit up and I tend to pop right up=] I tried to plop my 6 lb heavier butt on the counter yesterday and failed, I feel so out of shape and useless sometimes=[ I sometimes forget I have an appendage on my belly now and have to take it easy. The last thing I will complain about it bending over, I look like a sumo wrestler trying to pick something up!! Legs spread and knees bent. I have never been so upset about dropping something on the floor until I was pregnant. Needless to say I feel like a COW and I have 3 more months to go! But all for a good reason =] Worth every pound and every kick to my uterus our baby girl gives me.
You are gorgeous and even more so 6 months pregnant; I can't believe there's going to be a little Jamie runnin' around and causing havoc! It's very surreal and I couldn't be any happier for you. (:
ReplyDeleteAw Jamie, you poor girl! I can totally relate! Getting out of bed is the worst! I sometimes have to roll from side to side to get enough guss to get the heck up. Or I'll just roll out of bed like a seal. But, you still look amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo Cute Jamie!! I understand how you feel -- hang in there! Having a baby is worth all of it. You're going to love motherhood!
