My pregnant body #7

Lucky number 7. According to my pregnancy calender, I am 7 months pregnant with 3 and a half months to go. Whatever.

I am feeling different lately.

Bad different: leg cramps, abdominal discomfort, itching (stretching), bloating, pee WAY too often, nesting (cleaning until I cause myself pain), nerves about having 2 kids and being in pain and unrested and homely, having people ask me how I'm feeling constantly, moodiness and I've been spilling a lot of food on my shirt.

Good different: my husband taking care of me and being so kind, excited about the other child we get to nurture and love, being round and maternal, having been so very sober for so long, elated about soon seeing this little creature who reaches for my hand when I press my belly and kissing those tiny toes and fingers and soft head, having people ask me how I'm feeling constantly.

Just thought I would post this update. I should be printing these for a scrapbook since this is the LAST time I will be 7 (6) months pregnant. Sigh.
