Things I Think About - Cub Thumping

It's been a busy, giant summer, and I have been quite delinquent in writing to this journal. Along with months of major work transitions, a filming project in June, and more events one summer can shake a stick at, I have hit the end point of my first pregnancy and all the exhaustion/discomfort that goes with it ( Read more... )

Little piglet needs to come out and play. This is really the biggest thing about me living so far away now, I want to spoil the crap outta the little one and it looks like I'll have to do it from a distance. Unless the two of your realize that MIssoula is a great place to raise kids...just sayin' :)
Anyway,can I just say thank you for being brutally honest about pregnancy? I think sometimes its all some sort of secret still like in Pride & Predjudice when Charlotte is pregnant, but you wouldn't know she was pregnant unless you could read into it. Or in Little Women where "one doesn't discuss such things in a letter"
I digress, Dear Piglet please come out and play little one, you're parents want to see you :)

So much play!

Yeah, that whole being in Montana thing interferes with so many plans... I'm totally the sort who spent a couple years checking with TJ about whether he was interested in moving prior to home buying and pregnancy, so MN it really is. Also, I'm pretty sure I have more gypsy blood than TJ does. ;)

Happy to be brutally honest and glad to know it read that way. From what I understand, no one experiences it quite the same way and even my doctors are hella non-committal about what to expect. The part that blew my mind was that the "discomfort" they talk about in the third trimester really isn't about size and weight, but about muscle spasms and practice contractions. It is seriously grump inducing.

And yeah, while I'm no old-fashioned lady that needs to be hidden from society due to my "delicate condition", there does come a point where it seems to be a luxury to be able to sit still for days and stop going through the endurance test of work.

It is so time to play, instead. :)

Smooches to you, lady.
