It's Getting Uncomfortable Here

The best part about pregnancy are the kicks, the food and if you were ever pregnant, you already know the third one. You don’t really have to eat for two people because all you really need is additional 200-300 calories but somehow pregnancy has given me the insurance to eat what I want. Maybe because I can’t do and have so many other things that if I didn’t eat what I wanted, I’d go even more nuts.

My 5th month was the best energy wise. I’m half way through my 6th month and I can feel my energy level going down. My legs are getting tired carrying the extra weight, I can’t sleep well because I can only sleep on my sides and I’m not comfortable with either side. I can’t sit like a lady, I prefer sitting with my legs open like a guy- that’s so much better. I can still put on socks and shoes but yesterday I couldn’t put on one of my boots. I have to lean on something while putting on jeans or else I’d fall flat on my face. This morning I almost tripped over a pencil and realized it’s because I can’t see anything past my bump. At work it’s really hard sitting in my chair because the keyboard and the bump …well they bump heads. I have to lean real back and try to pull the keyboard right under my bump so I’m not 10inches away from it. It’s becoming that way with hugs and cuddling too. The doc said the baby is going to double in growth the next two months which means I will get bigger and that is a scary fact. I am so looking forward to labor but yes I’m trying to enjoy my last few months of pregnancy and uncomfortableness.
