worries
i'm four and a half months pregnant. my belly is getting rounder and i've even started hearing comments about "showing." but i still don't really feel pregnant. sure, i'm hungry, sure i'm lazy... but i'm always hungry and lazy! co-workers have made comments about my strange eating habits, i noticed that they never paid attention in the past. i've always put wasabi in ham sandwiches. i've always eaten bananas and cheese together.
so now i'm worried. should i have extra cravings? should i be bitching about the temperature? i still get cold easily, and all the baby books tell me that i should feel like i'm in an oven. the only craving i've really had is for the new mary jane crocs. i look at them almost every day... but that could just be because i love shoes.
i admit that since i don't feel all that pregnant, i don't take care of myself as well as i probably should. i do take the neccessary pre-natal vitamins. i do stay away from caffiene, nicotine and alcohol. i get the same amount of sleep as i usually do. i still try to carry things that are a bit heavy.
maybe its the whole work-related stress thing. maybe, deep down inside, i do resent being pregnant. that terrifies me, but it makes sense. ever since i announced the pregnancy, i've been screwed over every which way. i do want this baby, and i do want to enjoy the pregnancy.
but it is all so hard.
