MILESTONE DAYS.

Until my next BIG ultrasound on July 11, I won't know exactly how far along I am.  Therefore, we will still consider Mondays to be Milestone Days, but I won't get into the exact week.

Today, I celebrate another week of babyness and even more importantly - I celebrate the 12 days it has been since the last catastrophe.  Somehow, both the Hub and I are still waiting for another shoe to fall (I swear, that guy has a whole bag of shoes!)  But, we are resigned to waiting to see what comes.

I feel pretty good.  This is in spite of my lack of REM cycles (You can't have those if you only sleep for 1 1/2 hours at a time at night).  I am getting bigger but not really gaining that much weight.  I would like to stick with the same weight gain plan as last time - and remain in the good graces of the fatty-gods. 

My Progesterone Shots really aren't that bad.  I know what to expect and they take a little while to get.  Today's barely hurt at all.  I feel like that is an accomplishment. . unless, of course, there was no pain because my ass muscle is quickly deteriorating along with my ass nerves.  Ew.  I have received my third shot.  Three weeks down. . .  .and hopefully, many more to come!

In other news, the baby is absolutely active.  I can feel my whole abdomen flip-flopping and wonder when or if I will expand enough to avoid bouncing on my bladder.

This brings me to my next "ew" moment. . . this child likes to bounce off of my bladder so much that sometimes, I pee.  Yeah.  I pee.  Myself.  Seriously.  My only remedy has been to evacuate my pee-bag so often that there isn't ever enough pee to do panty-damage.  Sweet baby Moses, I never thought I would type that particular combination of words.

So yeah. . . everything is going along.  Yay!
