So as much as I complained last week, I'm really trying to concentrate on the positives. I don't want to spend too much of this pregnancy miserable; I really want to enjoy it cherish the times I get to spend with my daughter as close to me as humanly possibly as it gets! Some day I'll look back on this time and wish I could have it back. I'll still kvetch about the crazy pregnancy symptoms and irritants, but I won't wallow in them.
I crossed off a major (to me) pre-baby checklist item when I finally got ahold of the daycare I want to find out there's no waiting list. We tour at the end of the month! I'm hoping we like what we see, because we really don't have a lot of options when it comes to daycares who offer part-time hours.
No new symptoms this week. She's pretty active all the time, especially in the wee hours of the morning as I'm struggling to fall back asleep. Fruit and carbs really get her going.
I had my 24 week appointment today. Looks like I'm up 20 pounds. I can't say I'm surprised; my mom and my sister both gained over 50 with each of their pregnancies, so I'm probably just following nature here. I have to remember it's only temporary and I will do my best to lose it. The better news is she's measuring on track and her heartbeat is in the 130s.
Last weekend I picked up more things at yard sales. At this rate, she'll have way too many clothes, but I figure it's always good to have backups. :) Now if I could just pry myself away from Etsy.
