Pre Motherhood Thoughts

So yesterday I was standing in the mirror in my sports bra and my yoga pants brushing my teeth, well I was mezmerized by how big my tummy has gotten. Im brushing my teeth and all I can think about is how lucky I am to be having this little life grow inside of me. As I stood there staring and it it made me so happy that we will soon have this little life in our hands and she will be all for Erik and I. I admired my new found plump body in the mirror and was proud of it. All the while little girl was kicking away and rolling around in her temporary home and it made me fell a glow of warmth and love and wished that that moment wouldnt go away. I imagined the day we would hold her and the way she would look. Everything was in slowmo and I swear time stood still. I was so happy. My smooth belly that looked and felt like a watermelon holding this life that is so precious. I stopped brushing teeth and smiled.

Death Cramp From HELL

So the other night I am staying at my parents house, lying snug in the bed and sound asleep with my dog Wyatt when all of a sudden I am awoken by this deathly painful cramp in my left leg. It felt like someone had cut open my leg ripped my muscles out and started digging around in there. It was truly horrible. The more I moved the worse it got and if I was still it was still painful. I am screaming at the top of my lungs, my dog wakes up starts freaking out, I am on the verge of crying and no one came to my rescue. Lol. I am suprised no one heard me I was sreaming so loud. It finally went away and I fell asleep. I hope I never have that pain again. I looked up my bedtime night pain and found out that it is common in pregnancy to get these wonderful cramps during sleep. Great. So I hope I never get another one this whole pregnancy.
