More of the Same!

OH the glory of a big belly -- but just wait it gets better- so much better!!!

SEe what I mean 26 weeks- even bigger- and no make up even - wow !! Charming I think!  No- no you are right- its not!! Uhg!!  My eyes seem to disappear when make up is removed-  odd how that works-- and oh my that pregnancy mask- that is gorgeous!!!

Most of my pregnancy symptoms (early pregnancy any way ) have gone away -- I'm still left with an almost uncontrollable urge to break dishes - slam doors - give people the bird - throw things (anything in my hand) at irritating people in grocery stores - you name it-I want to do it--   I was telling my bosses wife one day I feel really good except I"m soo grouchy-- she says well at least you have an excuse-- I told her -- even a  good attorney can't use pregnancy as an excuse for homicide!! -- heheheh (funny huh!) -- It honestly takes all of my energy each day to not  burn every bridge I've ever built-- by saying mean mean things -- or doing rotten irrational things--   Odd?? I don't know!  Google didn't have much to say on grouchy (rage like!) pregnancy symptoms!

Week 28 felt alot like week 8 -- I was soo tired I could die-- I was soo sick - I wanted to shoot myself (and others -see above for explanation!) -- Monday the 30th I had my 28 week appointment  and baby looked good with heart rate of 138 bpm. I also had to take the glucose test the quick one where you drink the sugar filled juice-- they prick your finger- and you cheer when you get to eat crap like scones and Junior Mints the rest of your pregnancy and not be restricted to a "gestational diabetes diet" -- which I understand from some pretty reliable sources - sucks soo much!!!--   The nurse telling me I failed- made me want to punch her in the face-- (I didn't!)  but I wanted to --

I scheduled my 2 hour test for the next day - boo hoo!!! -- I guess I should have studied harder huh!!

Then I went across the street to have my blood drawn to test my antibody levels-- the chick there is great- she's been drawing my blood for years-- seriously since Highschool-- she knows which veins are good- and she's never missed - until that day!!--  I apparently had played to hard all weekend long- and was dehydrated- she blew the first vein she tried- even with a tiny tiny needle-- and pediatric tube--
she tried my other arm- and barely got the stuff she needed-- EEK!!-- So I looked like a pin cushion - both arms bandaged-- my finger bandaged- and my pride hurt (cuz I failed my test!)  -- it made my already shaky mood- turn foul foul!!!

I went home and pounded most of a watermelon (me and Porter are watermelon eating champs!)  and drank as much water as I could handle!-- I wanted to be hydrated for my upcoming test-- 

The test the next morning went well-- I passed with flying colors- seriously such great numbers-- take that!!!

But that didn't help my sick feeling --   nothing sounded good- nothing set good- and I just wanted to puke puke puke all day long- even though I didn't --

Finally  on Friday I couldn't handle it any more-- while talking to a person who to my sensitive pregnant nose wreaked!!! --   and someone who was irritating me (go figure huh!)  -- I walked away and puked puked puked!! --  Uhg-- To all those out there that are sick the whole 9 months-- I am sooo sorry!!

I've since pulled out of the sickness and again am feeling very good (just very grouchy!)

So there is the update --
