update

To anyone who reads this, sorry I haven't written anything in a while! I have just been busy. I think I should do an update/recap post before I tackle any specific topic. not that this blog is well organized LOL, I tend to go all over the place. But anyways, heres what I have been up to

Finished the run of A Christmas Carol, which was the holiday show at the local community theater company where I participate. I think it was a success. It got more and more tiring for me though. just putting on my costume became a battle. tights on pregnant women aren't fun. *side note. I shouldve looked into maternity tights, if such a thing exists.* As if being tired wasnt enough, random patrons would make comments after the show asking if my baby bump was real or a prop. I wanted to say "honey what I wouldn't give to take this thing off every night." but that might have been misconstrued. I'd like to take a moment and thank God that my costume fit for the entire run because my lil gummy bear has just been making my tummy grow and Grow and GROW! but i'll get to my body changes in a bit.

So after A Christmas Carol came Christmas! I think thats what my nxt post will be about so i'll just be quick here. It came, was nice and it is now boxing day! so HAPPY BOXING DAY! if you dont know what that is.. I hear google is mighty informative ;)sry, I just dont want to ramble about too many things in this entry.

My body changes since last I posted.
well I've gotten even bigger. As if that wouldn't be obvious. My back hurts worse, my feet are now swollen all the time, braxton hicks have gotten more intense but aren't unbearable and never have a pattern (which is good!! :P) Waddling has become my primary means of foot transportation. It takes me twice as long to get off the couch or anything with cushion lol. I have to rock back and forth kind of turtlelike and hope momentum will propel me forward. Oh and as if this was even possible, I have to urinate even MORE frequently. i know, what??.
I also found out that I was dangerously anemic. Got some handy dandy iron supplements from my Dr so I get to add them to the handful of vitamins that I take daily. I wish these things were in liquid form because I cant stand swallowing pills. So hopefully next time anyone at that cuckoo facility (aka the obstetricians office) takes my blood my iron will be at a safer level. I dont mean to insult them but the things they overlook astound me! ha I should make a post just ranting about that place but i wont.

ok this is it for now. mostly complaints. Sorry about that! there are plus sides though. I am 4weeks away from the second due date that I was given so thats very exciting! I'll try to make another post when my cranial is more up to it. Until then.. :)
