Oh my goodness I'm surprised my apartment hasn't flooded with all the crying I do.
I've always been a crier. Ask anyone in my family. I have cried over stupid little stuff since before I can remember. I cried when I got in trouble. I cried when something didn't go my way. I cried when someone else was crying. I think I'm a sympathetic crier because whenever I see someone crying (even on TV...okay, especially on TV, I cry with them.)
Anyway, my point is, I've always cried a lot but my GOODNESS! This is getting serious! I caught myself crying during Kate Plus 8 because they were at the zoo and I thought about taking my baby to the zoo one day and how much fun it would be to see how excited he or she will be when that time comes. Then I started thinking about other experiences I'd have with my little one...of course I started crying harder.
I'm so excited to do everything with this baby...and I don't even think it's really hit me yet. I'm going to have a baby. Of my own. That I made...that concept still blows my mind.
Really, I'm just excited for the baby to get here. Don't get me wrong, being pregnant is pretty cool too....at least I'm trying to convince myself that it is.
I'm still getting sick every few days, if not more often. Add headaches, some heartburn, a super heightened sense of smell (Sean will tell you, anything that smells like chicken sends me through the roof), always being tired, the occasional back-ache, occasional sharp pains in my tummy from the little one growing, and a dozen other things I'm sure I'm forgetting...wow what was my point? Oh, that on top of all that, I still enjoy pregnancy. Especially now that I can feel the little guy or gal kicking. I don't feel it very often....but I felt little punches yesterday and today for sure. I think I've felt it before...but I've also mistaken those movements for gas...lol. I'm pretty sure I can tell the difference at this point, though.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm rambling. I just thought I'd share how much I've cried over looking forward to this humongous change that's happening in my life.
ALSO!! I wanted to remind those of you who don't follow me on Facebook that tomorrow is the day I get to find out what this little bugger is!! I've said this whole time that I'm sure it's a girl..but tomorrow we will see if I've been right or wrong these past 18 weeks.
Oh! AND!! 2 more weeks and I will be half way there (assuming I'll have a normal, 40 week long pregnancy).
I'll post a picture tomorrow with the verdict of boy or girl. (Of my belly and of the ultrasound, of course) Wish me luck!!
