I am having such a hard time concentrating on actually working. I keep thinking about my Dr.'s appointment tomorrow. I hope they do another ultrasound. I've really been so spoiled lately, since I've had an ultrasound at every appointment I've been to. :)
Our ultrasound to find out the gender is scheduled for July 31st, it seems so far away. But I'm sure the time will fly by and it will be here before I know it. Today is already July 1st! So 30 more days to go!
I'm really worried about what is going to happen when I take maternity leave. I don't have enough money to support myself for a minimum of 6 weeks yet. I was told by my boss that I could collect unemployment, which was false information. As far as I know they have no intentions of doing anything to help me financially while I'm off. I think they need better laws to help support women while they are off after giving birth. It's pretty ridiculous!
So pretty soon here I will need to go by the Belly band or some pants that fit. Once summer is over I will have nothing to wear. All my pants are stretchy capris that you can't wear in snow. I think I may be needing another new bra soon, which is fine by me!! I welcome these new additions to my body. Although I must admit they tend to get in the way sometimes when you're trying to sleep.
I took my belly ring out today. I figured I should let it heal before the skin really starts to stretch and it looks like a gaping hole. Plus you could see the bar bell sticking out of my shirts and it looked funny. I feel like my belly button has already started to get closer to the top (or to being an outie - although it has a LONG way to go before its an outie). I know this because I have a really deep belly button and it never would touch my belly ring, but it has been lately.
Finally, I'm pretty sure I felt the baby move yesterday for the first time. It was so weird, like a flutter in my belly. It felt different then gas bubbles feel. Some would say its too early, and maybe they are right - but I swear it was the baby. It only did it once and I haven't felt it since, but it made me feel like everything is ok. Especially since I seem to worry 24/7! I guess having 2 miscarriages in your life would do that to you.
Well I should probably try and get something done around here.
Until then.... Day Dreaming Mom-to-Be
