Random Pregnant Thoughts

Just a few random pregnant thoughts:

Even though I may not have to pee when sitting down, as soon as I stand up and gravity takes over, it's practically a sprint to the bathroom.

I have to remember that even babies in the womb sleep.  When she doesn't move for an hour, I shouldn't try to coax her to move.  She will get grumpy that I've disturbed her nap, and kick that nerve in my spine that she's so fond of these days.

I'm scared to death of actually giving birth.  Scared.  To.  DEATH.

Some of my more recent cravings:

*movie theater popcorn (LARGE)
*shrimp scampi
*cranberry orange muffin
*soft pretzel (warm, light salt, with mustard)
*Sonic ice (those delicious pellets of frozen water!)
*McDonald's iced coffee (cream, no sugar)
*Krispy Kreme doughnuts

I really do think Sadie knows I'm pregnant.  She's spending a large amount of time sniffing my belly lately.

I have what might be my last specialist appointment tomorrow, and I'm not nearly as nervous as I have been for every other visit.

Carpal tunnel SUCKS, and I pray every single day that my case truly is pregnancy-related and that it goes away after she's born (like it did for so many friends of mine).

I get my stitch removed in 3 weeks!  The bad part?  I don't think there's any anesthesia like there was with the placement.  Ruh-roh!!!!!

Things you should never say to a pregnant lady:

*"WOAH!" when looking at her belly
*"Are you sure you're not due sooner?"
*"Why are you so tired?  The baby isn't here yet!"
*"You absolutely need to do/have {insert thing here} or you'll regret it"  I appreciate advice, but what works for you may not work for me. 

I am so looking forward to being able to resume normal activities without worrying about causing a baby to fall out.  

I'm sure there'll be a part 2 to this at some point.  :)  Can't wait to meet our little girl :)
