Please join me in knocking HARD on wood that I haven't yet fallen victim to these unfortunate "badges of pregnancy" aside from my dear, occasional moments of madness. Saying that, last weekend my right eye was really bothering me. It wasn't red, swollen, bloodshot or giving me double vision but just prone to random bouts of sensitivity where it would suddenly burn and then spontaneously start to tear. I didn't know what the deal was and ironically didn't even consider that this new ailment could be linked to those fateful pregnancy hormones until I stumbled upon dry eye syndrome in my pregnancy newsletter. My sporadic tearing had ceased by then - it stopped as suddenly as it started - but it looks like those pregnancy hormones were yet again making themselves known.I'm now 30 weeks pregnant and our daughter is the size of a cabbage, weighing in at about 3 pounds! It's hard for me to imagine that I now have a real, nearly developed baby in my belly and that in about 10 weeks she'll arrive here with us. This may be what we've been working towards and waiting for but it's still mind boggling all the same. Chris and I still have plenty prepare and take on board during this home stretch but ultimately we are ready and know the real learning will begin when she is here with us. I'm excited!
Our great friends T&D just spent the weekend with us and it's been a fabulous, relaxed couple of days. I will share 30 week pictures tomorrow.
