Fat Feet

~32 Weeks and 4 days~

Oh the joys of pregnancy! Lately I have been experiencing larger feet than ordinary.

They. are. FAT.

Huge! Gainormous! Large and in Charge!

They are like a balloon that's overfilled with flour. They're heavy, and can be molded into different shapes by pushing on them. And it's not just my feet, but the swelling goes up my calf. (is that the correct spelling??) So I no longer have ankles. I have can-kles. And it's depressing.

On a happier note, all else is going fairly well - some annoyances but everything's normal.

The baby moves around all the time and it's so fun to feel him doing his somersaults! Sometimes, it makes me feel like I have the flu though, and that's not so fun.
I'm getting so excited to meet him and I'm feeling more ready to be a mommy. Although I'm really not ready as far as his nursery and our house in general go at all!
I have to pee about every 10 minutes, and sleeping is kinda a joke.
My heart and throat seem to be on fire but I really don't mind the tums - I kinda like how they taste. (my vitamins taste so good!! I always want more than just the two I'm suppose to take.)
I still get nauseated, but as long as I take my pills for it I don't throw up (well at least "out" which is really gross) I ran out this last week - And the pills have proven effective once again - I really should keep the prescription filled better.

I was seen yesterday by a doctor for high blood pressure (probably high cause of moving and my boss) and my huge feet, and go in Thursday to see our regular doctor and then our next appointment will be another ultrasound!!:) I love seeing my baby!!

Sorry to hear you are still feeling sick! Only a few more weeks to go :) I hope your house comes together in time!

P.S. I saw that you asked about our new countertop in our kitchen...I'm pretty sure its just laminate, but I could be lying.

Heather, you are so hilarious! I am sorry about all those crappy things!! I can't wait to meet your little guy! It's crazy how a new little baby is the only thing that can make all the nasty prego issues worth it! lol. Good luck with the final stretch!
