Pregnancy Forget-Me-Nots Part 2
Constipation which you can do basically nothing about except pray to God that your bowels get a jump start. Why? Why does just the slight presence of a baby immediately put the stopper in? I really have no idea, but it is SO not fun. You can't take laxatives. You are able to take stool softeners, but they don't start working till they are in your body for about a week, and by the time you need stool softeners, a week is WAY too long. So I'll just try to fix this the old fashion way. Lots of hot sauce and water. But you know what's not cool about this whole thing, is your swollen belly.
Stranger: "Oh are you pregnant mam?"
Me: "why yes I am actually."
Stranger: "How far along are you?" (places hand on belly.)
Me: "Oh I'm only 5 weeks, that's not a baby your rubbing, that's compacted poop."
Pee'ing during movies. Pee'ing is the first sign that I am pregnant, way before I'm supposed to know I'm pregnant. I start waking up in the middle of the night to pee. Yes, my child is the size of a sesame seed, but just the fact that there is that extra presence pressing down on your bladder really makes you pee. Well I remembered the pee'ing once a night thing, and was prepared for it. But what I had forgotten about till I was watching Indiana Jones last night was that when you have a few refills of drink at dinner and then you get a medium diet coke to bring into the theater with you, you will indeed have to pee right before the movie starts, pee twice during the movie (during exciting action sequences) and then rushing down the stairs to pee right after the movie ends. It's so not cool.
Crazy Dreams. they have already started. I dream a lot when I'm not pregnant, so you can imagine how crazy my dreams get when I am pregnant. However, there is a bad side to this that I didn't remember which is since my dreams are so active and realistic, when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I haven't slept a wink. I'm very unrested and Jon says that I start talking and toss and turning a lot more. SO didn't remember how unrestful it is to have crazy pregnant dreams. I find myself going to sleep praying that I don't dream so I can get a good night's sleep.
Ok, that's all for now.

I had crazy dreams when I was pregnant with Gray. For the first couple of months I had a recurring dream that I lived in Disneyland.
