Happy 27th Week!

Well, I am a day late, but not to fear we are here. Unfortunately we were stricken with a summer cold that we are now recouping from. Started last Wednesday, I thought it was going away and WAM, back with a venegence on Sunday. So I spent Monday afternoon and ALL day yesterday in bed. I hate bed rest! God is good though, I never had a fever. Yea!!!


It seems when women are sick men lose all common sense, or maybe they never had it. So I husband comes home from work early to "take care of me". Or so he says :)! He immediately brings me some OJ, but that's about it. Breakfast, I was on my own, Lunch, forget about it. Now dinner.. well he did pop a frozen pizza in the oven and take out my salad fixings for me to prepare. Now if you think he is just rude, not really. Because not only did my sister go through something similar yesterday as well (she is also sick), but my best friend did when she was sick... and she has an 11th month old baby. Men just don't get it. No sympathy for the sick pregnant wife I guess. Of course I made him feel guilty and reflect on is inconsistencies.


But we are getting better now. My head no longer feels as if it's floating in the air, about to burst. Baby J is doing well. I just learned that he could be hiccuping in my belly. Hmmm... I am not quite sure how this feels, but I'm almost certain he's hiccuped plenty of times and silly me chalked it up to him moving around. He's definitely a lot more active than ever before. Good thing, sometimes uncomfortable. Yea, uncomfortable.... that's a "nice" word for it.


So I recently told NeNe that I am going through this phase where I feel like I am harming him in some way and am scared out of my mind. She thinks I'm crazy. It's the reason I refuse to take meds while I am sick and I question everything I eat. If only I could stop eating those darn McDonald fries. But I am always second-guessing and questioning myself about the level of care I am providing for him. It seems my hubby dear has no concerns in this department, but I sure do. This pregnancy is bringing out so many crazy thoughts and emotions. I wonder what September will bring.


Well, Jerbear is now 27 weeks old .... Happy Pre-Birthday Baby J.


Until next week....
