that was short lived....

For some reason i remember my second trimester at least with Autumn to be one of energy and busy busy busy. This time around I felt great for about one month and now i just feel BIG....
The baby has dropped so low into my pelvis that it is hard to walk for more than 20 min. Standing or sitting for to long is painful.  I can only sleep on my back which they say cuts off blood flow to the baby. But if i lay on either side my body just gets tingly numb and i feel sick.  I am still hating the heat and have no desire to leave the house.
And now instead of accomplishing something when i have a minute or two of free time i look at the task and then go take a nap. So pretty much 28 weeks is my start of the count down to holding a baby in my arms and getting it out of ME!  I have grown a ton in 6 weeks which probably doesn't help my attitude with it being so hot.  I think i am the only one who thinks i'm "big" because every time someone sees me they comment on how tiny I am still. Um, i hope they are being nice because according to my measurements I am a far cry from wear i started. And my cravings for all things chocolate are not helping the scale and i be friends. I should really curb that habit.

The baby is very active and still transverse so all of my kicks and jabs are right in the bladder. (joy!) I am really hoping the baby flips to a head down position before it gets much bigger so the deliver is at least easy. But who am i kidding you can't make a baby do anything it does not want to so i guess i will just pray.

As for up coming fun we are planning a family trip to Disneyland this next week so i am hoping to get my mind off the every day and have some new surroundings. Even if i have to be pushed around in a wheel chair to keep up ;-)

It should be interesting with 4 kids, two preggers, two dad's, my parents, and Grandma Dee...oh if we only had a t.v crew to document this bunch. Although I am exited to see the kids enjoy the magic of the kingdom. I have so many great memories of going as a child i want them to experience it too.
