The woman who came to pick up the suitcases I was selling her (from Kijiji) sneered at the fact that I found out the sex of my baby and said in a disgusted voice, “kids these days.” Clive said that I should have kicked her out and shut the door in her face and said, “NO SUITCASES FOR YOU!”
I rarely get comments from strangers about being pregnant. I’m not sure why… maybe I don’t look approachable or something? If people start giving me their opinions on the choices I’ve made like the woman today, I’d prefer people kept their questions and comments about my pregnancy to themselves anyway.
The baby’s gone through some sort of growth spurt or something in the past couple of days, because his bum is directly under my ribcage and slouching is getting uncomfortable. There’s about a one centimeter gap between the bulge of his bum and the underwire of my bra when I sit up straight, and I have a feeling it’s only going to get worse from here on out. He’s also taken to stretching out his legs to the very far edge of my uterus (which is in the middle of my side, now) on my right side, and I can feel his feet digging into me, and it really hurts. Kicking movements have almost completely stopped- maybe it’s getting tight in there- but when he does manage to kick, it moves my entire midsection. He’s strong!
