Pregnancy Happenings of the Week


Here are just few of the pregnancy happenings I have been going through this week:

1. Emotions are running high - I cry almost every day. Today, I cried 4 times - including after a story on an ice cream shop in Chicago. My neighbor knocked on my door mid-cry and I swore he thought something was wrong with me. I cry at everything semi-sad, happy, whatever. And when I cry, I sometimes sob. You would think something was seriously wrong with me.

2. Nighttime stories - I had read that you dream a lot during pregnancy and boy is that ever true with me. Not only am I dreaming, but I am having full out nightmares almost nightly. I keep dreaming that people are mad at me (friends, family, my husband) or that my husband is going to leave me. I am not sure what these mean but I will assume it has something to do with my fear of messing up this child's life that will soon be coming. I probably should see someone about this, as the nightmares are happening far too frequently than I would like to admit. And they are so vivid that I can still feel them even now, at 6 PM at night.

3. Dinnertime is still tough - I am finding that when I ate a big meal at night I am setting myself up for a rough evening ahead of me. The stomach problems that come from bigger meals haunt me with lots of pains every where in my belly. I think I need to go back to the recommended small meals for my tummy comfort.

4. Still no movement - at least I am pretty sure I am not feeling anything yet. I am pretty sure whatever I have felt have just been gas bubbles.

I have eaten mac and cheese twice this week, ice cream every day and PB&J at least 3 times. I have noticed my belly is starting to act more weird with the food I eat!

Hmm, so much going on!
