At work, our year end is May 31st. Well, my estimated due date is May 30th. When people at work ask when I'm due and I tell them, they ALWAYS say, "you couldn't have planned that better!" since I will be missing our year end. I am in accounting so its kind of a big deal. BUT, I get so mad when I hear that, I just want to say, I didn't plan on waiting a year to get pregnant and I didn't plan on having a miscarriage, or else I would have been gone about right now and been back for year end. Instead I just smile and nod. The other day when I heard it, I actually said, "I didn't really plan it like that" but then I felt like I was telling them this baby wasn't planned. I know people don't mean to sound like that, but it really bugs me. My husband said I should say something, but I haven't thought of anything clever enough to say. Maybe I'm being sensitive about it, but its very annoying.
ANYWAYS, about this baby, can I just say, that I LOVE to feel her move! I have been waiting this whole pregnancy to feel some movement, and I can't get enough!! At work all day, every time I feel a little something I just put my hand on my belly for like the next 20 mins just waiting to feel it again. My husband finally felt her the other day, he said he was getting jealous that I could feel her and he couldn't.
Well I'll leave you with a picture, I just took it today at 22 weeks. I'm still wearing my regular pants, with a belly band, and some maternity shirts, or I have been buying just Large regular shirts, since they are a little cheaper! Excuse my face, I probably could have smiled!!
