I can’t seem to get much done these days, and I am requiring a
ridiculous amount of sleep! I STILL haven’t posted baby
ultrasound pictures but hopefully I will get to it before she is born!
The baby is getting really strong and she is very active. She has
had the hiccups on and off for the last few days. Sometimes you
can see my stomach move when she kicks or rolls over. She goes
nuts when Andrew talks to her or when we’re around loud music.
Being pregnant does some crazy things to your brain, basically
rendering it useless. I have been doing stupid things such as:
putting ice cream in the refrigerator,
trying to un-snap a button-up jacket (therefore ripping off the buttons)
and constantly losing things (including my ATM card!).
I also often have a hard time putting things into words.
I’ll stop in the middle of a sentence and my mind will go blank.
It’s really annoying. When I leave the house in the morning I
stop and go through a mental checklist: Am I fully clothed?,
Is the stove off?, Do I have my keys/shoes/purse/phone?,
and other such general things that one can usually expect
they will do automatically.
