the mommy memoirs
one grand day i looked up and there was a pregnancy test that read positive. never in my wildest dreams did i imagine that i would end up pregnant at this time! freshly divorced and laid off, this is my pregnancy (and soon to be motherhood) story. everyday i learn more about myself and want to become even greater for my budding baby girl!

and I’m cranky… today signifies the conclusion of my 38th week of pregnancy and I’m tired of being tired.
why?
I no longer sleep very well at all and am suffering from a smidge of pregnancy insomnia. so when I do sleep, it’s a light and fluffy sleep as opposed to a deep and restful sleep.
yes, this post is me complaining. after having a wee one inside you for over half a year, you get over the “awww I’m making a new life” and you get to the “argh I just want my body back and to hold this new life in her own space”.
I feel like I’m going to be pregnant forever. I know I JUST got her travel system, her crib still isn’t assembled, and I need to sterilize her bottles but ugh! i’m ready for her to come!
this week I finally have a doctor appointment. I woke up this morning feeling pretty angry at them. i’m 38 weeks and they haven’t checked the position of the baby, given me an estimate of her weight, checked me for dilation or effacement, or any of the shit people that are around my same timeframe have had done!!! I realize that i’m low risk but that doesn’t mean neglect me! hell I’m still not even on weekly visits and I’m about to pop this kid out! so yeah, on Thursday the doctor will be having a firm talking to from yours truly.
I’m done ranting…

i think i’ve always been a worrier but now that i have this budding starlet inside me, i worry even more!
it’s weird though, because i worry about people that i barely even know but i’ve been making my pregnancy journey with virtually. and the funnier thing is they worry about me too! it’s all very sweet to me but so weird to go from a semi-noncaring person to someone who is caring about everyone!
i went shopping for my travel system today with my brother. i knew i didn’t want anything overly girly and like my brother pointed out, she’s not going to care about the color—only the safety. so i picked something out for me!
here it is:
isn’t it lovely?!?!
yellow and gray is one of my favorite color combinations and it looks fabulous here! and look! you even have the option to flip the stroller bar thing to have the baby face you! i’m so excited to put this together…
