It's Official...I've Got Fat Face


Look at that outtie! It's even prominent in a side profile!

Holding it all out front!
So pregnancy has finally taken a turn toward the uncomfortable side. I feel good (little sluggish here and there), but it definately has started to have it's aches and pains. I'm still hesitant to complain to much, because I still feel rather good compared to what I had imagined these last weeks to be. I am cumbersome and a little awkward (especially when moving around in bed), but I definately think things could be a lot worse!
The stretch marks have made a showing in full force. I've been religious about using the cocoa butter from day one, but out of no where, my lower half of my belly became zebra-like in the course of one day. It's really disappointing, but I have to focus on the fact that it will all be worth it.
Baby Kaeden is definately sitting all out front. My belly now rests in my lap when sitting, and my boobs on top of that. It's a sight! I still get the comment that you can't tell I'm prego from behind. I know I've gotten thicker all around, so that has to be somewhat of a lie, but he really is just poking straight out. When the contractions come I feel like I'm going to burst!
4 weeks to go! We went to the doctors today (now we go once a week), and I have dilated 1/2 cm. I know it's not much, but it's a start! It's just wierd to think that at any time I could wake up without a baby and the next thing I know, I'm a new mom with a baby around me 24/7. I just hope he makes a relatively "normal" entrance into this world. We don't need any drama!
