On the eve of the 6th month

I weighed myself. I am 16 pounds up. 2 pounds over my target (doc only wants 1 pound a week coz I am a fatty). I was pretty shocked but my friend C put me right! I am sitting here my pants undone and my boobs growing by the moment. I have the glow and I love it all. Even my huge arse.

Wow, 6 months. I think I shall have a little celebration for the monkeys tomorrow. Take my team out for lunch or something. I guess this means I have 3 months to go. I am 14 weeks to my 38th week. My heart just did a flip-flop! I know I should be terrified of the sleepless nights, the problems, the screaming and all that. But really, I am so excited. I am totally freakin' psyched. I will have tons of help (night nurse, mothers help and a nanny when I go to work). I don't care if they scream and cry. I don't care if they puke all over me all the time. I just want to hold them, to be their mum. I want my kids in my arms safe and sound.

  2. Eh, bodies can change. It may do crazy things now, but you were such an exercise hound for months, and you'll be able to do it again - especially with the kind of baby help you'll have! Because you're right, the things you are excited about are SO worth it! Even with my baby's milk allergy (read: diarrhea), blocked tear duct (read: icky eye goop), night feeds (read: tired mama) and other assorted little issues, when I hug and kiss him, all is right with the world. And you'll have all that times two!

  3. I am so excited for you! Don't be scared of all the "stuff" that comes with babies - you are planning ahead and will deal with what comes. And the babies will make it all worth it. Congrats on making it to 3rd tri!
