I never really liked it in the first place. I'm not a frilly girly person who thinks everyone gives a shit about me and what's going on in my life. I made this blog for friends & family to keep updated and in touch with but that was a pipe dream as well. Well, except for one particular buddy who reminded me that she in fact, DOES give a shit. LOL. Anyways, yeah this blog was bland and really watered down and just plain not me so it's going bye-bye. For those of you who did check in and read it, thank you. I appreciate your genuine interest.
I have been keeping a pregnancy journal that I write in pretty often, and I may transfer it to a new blog, and keep that up just for my own personal use. I hate watering down my true thoughts and feeling to appease everyone (something I've always done and has gotten me absolutely nowhere). If you would like an invitation to read that blog, just let me know and I will hook you up. Be warned, though - you may NOT like what you read, and I honestly don't give a fuck so ask at your own risk.
I'll post one last baby update here and then it's lights out.
I'm about 34 weeks along. I say "about" because my due date was changed back again to Dec. 18, kind of at my own request because I didn't want to be bullied into an induction just because of my so-called due date. I would rather be "early" and actually on time than be "late" but actually early....if that made any sense.
I've gained 40 lbs. People say I look small for as pregnant as I am and while that makes me feel a little better, I know the real number and it ain't cute. 40 lbs is a lot. Not a whole lot, but more than I should have gained and I still have a month and a half to go. I think - no - I know I ate too much sugary shit. I did it with reckless abandon and a sense of entitlement with a healthy dose of self-pity on the side. That's OK because I really do plan on and believe that I will lose the weight and maybe even be healthier after Waylon is born. My vitals have been perfect my entire pregnancy so just being a little chubbier is not that big of a deal.
Speaking of Waylon, he is an active little feller. He has definite periods of rest and playtime. Usually he really likes to play right when I'm settling in for bed and I have to lay there and wait it out. He's doing his baby aerobics or something - feels like he's performing a broadway musical and my belly jumps and rolls for a good hour. Sometimes I swear it feels like he's looking for the way out.
I'll be starting my weekly appointments the second week of November. Baby will be full-term in 3 weeks so I could pop him out anytime after then and he would be perfectly OK. Well, even if he came out now, he'd be fine. I went over my all-natural birth plan with my midwife and everything is a GO. Yes, I AM doing this all-natural, not because I am naive, brainwashed, a hippie, or anything other than being informed. I don't give a flying fuck whether or not anyone thinks I am silly for doing it or if they think I can't. That just means YOU are ignorant and weak. Roll your eyes, see if I care.
Well, that's about it for baby updates. Everything else is personal and offensive. Good-bye!
