I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going. In 3 weeks I will have completed the 2nd trimester and be in the final phase. I can't wait to see Jacob, I wonder what he looks like. Who he looks like. I can't wait to hold him.
We had another dr appt this week, to get some measurements that we weren't able to get previously. She was able to get some pretty good head shots and we saw him "eating". He kept opening and closing his mouth and sticking his tongue out. It was too stinkin cute. I'm trying to figure a way to copy the video and upload it to the computer so I can put a video on here. Okay not really trying to figure it out, more like too lazy to actually do it, but it's a great idea. LOL!!
The midwife gave me a fact sheet on preterm labor and it really freaked me out because prior to this past week it was just basic question/answer visits. Now we're getting to the nitty gritty and having to schedule classes and what to do if I start having contractions etc. How can it be June already, seems like January was just yesterday.
This is going to sound crazy but I thought the "planning/preparing" stages of having a child were going to be similar to planning a big event like say a wedding. But instead of Fondant frosting vs. Butter cream frosting it would be Graco vs. Chicco. Who knew that I would second guess every decision I have made thus far. It took me a whole day to come up with the "right" things to register for and now I'm like, why did I choose that...wasn't I going to...oh yeah I changed my mind on that...maybe I should just double check to see if this would be better....
So yeahhhhh we got one more thing accomplished.......we're all registered. Whoohooo I'm so glad that headache is over. I did get a compliment though....the manager at BRU said I must have really done my homework because my registry looked great. Phewww.
I got my first preggo comment the other day....well hey, I think it counts as one. I waited on this poor gentleman who was unable to fill out his forms. And a few hours later he calls to see if anyone had found some important things he lost. I just happened to answer the phone and he was very polite and said "the girl that waited on me, I believe she was pregnant" Whooohoooo I no longer look fat! Well at least to him anyway. It made my day though.

Hey Rachel,
I finally just viewed your 'blog' and I love it. How intricate and lovely it is. By the way, for anyone else viewing this comment, I work with Rachel everyday and she doesn't even look pregnant yet - nor does she look fat like she claims. She is beautiful and will make an excellent mother. I think by this time in my pregnancy I had already begun the waddle and was certainly 'pregnant acting'. The point is that I believe you are carrying the baby well and it does not seem to be a distressful situation for you and that is just a wonderful thing.
