Pregnancy Memories

So for the most part pregnancy has been pretty easy so I haven't really wanted to blog about it. But wow....how that is changed now that I am 8/12 months. I need to document this now before I forget this entire pregnancy!

First Trimester: No morning sickness, a little tired but not too bad, only food aversion was meat, threw up after brushing my teeth a couple of times, insomnia was really bad for some reason.

Second Trimester: Felt great!!!!!!!!!!!!! She started kicking which made me feel amazing! Nothing in my life has ever felt so good!

Third Trimester: Insomnia is back!!!!!!!!! I really only sleep about 3-4 hours a night and NOT consecutive! I pee constantly which is so weird for me since pre-pregnancy I usually only pee like twice a day. My back hurts so bad that sometimes I wish my chiropractor would just break it! I am so uncomfortable.....standing, sitting, laying, walking......nothing feels good. I have decided that I would rather be working than staying at home. At least at work the day goes by quicker. I started to experience severe rib pain....like a stabbing feeling under my left rib. She must have had her feet permanently kicking that side. I had blood work done and they were worried about my blood platelets, which could could mean toxemia. But, after more testing everything came back normal. The last week of my pregnancy, I started to swell all over. My feet were so pitiful to look at. They were so swollen they could have burst. I also got to experience the famous cankles that everyone talks about. My chins doubled too!

But, that's really it. It really hasn't been too bad. I just can't wait for the wonderful present I get at the end.
