Moving right along...

I am 17 weeks today. YAY. My widget to the right confirms it.
Time is flying with this pregnancy. I'm enjoying it,but as soon as I reach one milestone, I am anxiously anticipating the next, like it couldn't come fast enough. I did this with Lilian and once she was born, I really missed rubbing my belly and feeling her move around inside. What am I saying? That I really need to calm down and realize that I will miss this and I need to take it all in. I mean after all this might be my last pregnancy....so the sperm donor says. We shall see.
There are many times in my pregnancy that I've been so busy and exhausted with Lili, that I've completely forgot I was even pregnant. And then I get all excited remembering I'm carrying another little girl, then I proceed to squeal like a little girl.
I need to slow down. Physically though. I push my self too hard during the day with Lilian, picking her up, bending over...when I KNOW my back can't take it, and then I end up paying for it. Not to mention I am not eating an extra 100-200 extra calories like I am supposed to. By this time in my pregnancy I should have gained 5-10lbs, you know how much I've gained? 3......3 lousy pounds. Which was a lot of work for me, considering the horrible stomach bug I caught in my first trimester that made me lose 6lbs. So I guess technically I gained 9lbs. I have so much to do...and I have a headache to boot. I have to write a story for my brother's zine, which is quite popular...he is very talented, and that's not the biased sister talking, he is very smart, it makes my head hurt sometimes. Then I have to catch up on my poetry, because I'm slacking...what else is new. OH. And I have to feed Lilian. HAH. Can't forget that.
So Let me cut this SO interesting post short.
