I am reading the posts..and I am mad at myself for not blogging and being a part of this community. I have been so busy moving and being self absorbed with my pregnancy that I have missed out on so many exciting journeys you have been on. The last hour I have been commenting and crying!!! I am so happy for all the new pregnancies, the adoptions as well. I am here for you for you new IUI, IVF, and 2ww angels! I am crying remembering what I went through..this is a hard journey! And now at two days away from 21 weeks, I am faced with the memories of how special this baby is and what I went through.
OH...here are a few symptoms I left out:
I feel the baby moving! yes...my husband read to him every night..yes..at first it looked like he was talking to my woowoo! but now..as the belly is getting really round and he does look like he is talking to our little ALexander
well..here are some not so fun symptoms:
1) emotional_ cried at the bank yesterday
2) constipation or weird shifting of the intestines
3) extreme bossyness and anal behavior with my husband
I went and deposited a check at the bank in the atm..I put the check in for $1132.22. The receipt came out $132. Well.. no one at the bank would help me and the manager said she is the manager, then would say i am not the manafger. She initially made me wait for a half an hour and did not look at me, as I watched her help three more people. Very rude! Yeah..I will not be going back there. in fact..it is best not to deposit checks in an atm, or a bank located in a grocery store. But..really..I had no control of my anger..at the end the said 10 days until i can get the check into my bank and it is labor day..so two weeks until it is in my bank. Yeah..burns a little
then the constipation. So the uterus at 20 weeks starts miving above the belly button. I guess than transfers and the intestines around. it is pretty weird feeling. The constipation is no fun..I have to remind myself to drink lots of water.
then the analness! Well.. we moved into this new nice apartment/ I want it to be perfect, baby proof and clean. My husband and I have known each other since we were 16. So we are kind of kids..well not anymore but we grew up together and sometimes our immaturity comes out. We are messy and bicker like we are high school hormonal teenagers. He does not like throwing away things and he hates moving. so he has been really sensitive lately and I want things to be perfect for the baby..I am having a hard time getting him to be more open,...mind you he has a lot of clothes. In so many cases, men actually have more clothes than women!
Oh! I am sorry about all this pain! I am hoping the bank clear that issue soon, how rude from them to treat you that way. I am pissed for you.
ReplyDeleteAs for the constipation, what worked for me is loooot's of juice, fresh fruits, more veggies for sides and less bread/pasta.
As for the 'analness'- LOL ... I am not sure what we can do about that other than hoping our husbands would understand and wonderfully tolerate it. It sucks, but it's the hormones and all the physical changes. What can you do?
