There are so many pregnancy 'symptoms' that I always expected to have like morning sickness, acid reflux, moodiness, swelling extremities, etc. And not only have I not have any of those so far, I have a whole bunch of other ones, which are apparently 'normal' too, but less talked about. Things like nose bleeds & stuffy nose, headaches, leg cramps, boobs leaking, vision worsening, extreme thirst, among lots of others. And as James puts it; those things 'were not in the brochure." I'm not complaining, just surprised by so much. I mean, this pregnancy-thing is one crazy ride!
In other news, I've been so nesty lately. in fact, last night i actually dreamed that i couldn't sleep & got a bunch of nursery stuff done I've been meaning to do. but then i woke up and none of it was done :( so before work this morning i sterilized pacifiers & teethers, washed all the crib bedding, packed both diaper bags and detagged/unpackaged all the new washcloth-type stuff that needs to be washed. Then at lunch, I washed that other load of baby stuff while I wiped down the crib, put the fresh bedding on and removed the cloth part of the car seat to wash. Glad to have so much done now, but I still have a lot of bottle sterilizing, clothes folding, and still some shopping to do. Not to mention setting up the car seat & mirrors in my car. ahhhh, the thankless joys of motherhood are mine already :D
