7 months kinda snuck up on me. I actually thought I was still 6 months, but at my recent check-up, I realized I'm in the last trimester now! Because I'm so engrossed in work, the pregnancy has gone by quickly; yet because I feel so much bigger and more awkward than with Tesla, there is a part of me thinking, "3 more months?" I waddle now, breathe hard when climbing stairs, and sometimes get stuck in positions where Dav needs to shove me or pull me out. Being almost 5 years older than when I had T surely has something to do with it, but having a 2nd child is also a reason. My body got into full swing pregnancy mode from the get-go.
Overall, all good. Itching is my first complaint, followed by heart burn. One thing different from the pregnancy with Tesla is with her, I didn't have expectations, and although I enjoyed pregnancy, I didn't feel particularly connected to her in utero since I didn't know it was Tesla. Does that make sense? Now I know who she is and have a profound love for her, but she was abstract when in the belly. And I was so focused on how having a baby would change Dav and my blissful couplehood, I liked staying pregnant since it gave us more time just to be the two of us.
However, with this 2nd one, I do feel more attached because she is T's sister. That makes this baby already have an identify for me. I find myself definitely eager to meet her, and really looking forward to seeing what she looks like, seeing her with Tesla, seeing how she is unique. There are days when I can't wait : )
I owe Ele a picture of this top and jeans. The top is so comfortable but still manages to look nice. From the front, you can almost not notice the belly, no?
See that little white animal below the green bench? That's a capibara the mascot of Nifty in Japan. T loves that little guy.
