Rolaids should be considered a food group.

I hate having heartburn. I'm tired of waking up 5 times nightly to take more rolaids. I already wake up 7-8 times to go to the bathroom...you'd think my bladder and acid reflux could coordinate but no. Not for me.

Today my mom and I went to visit my brother at work. He works in an old fashioned meat locker type store with horehound candy and spices by the pound and stuff. It's kind of a neat place. Then we went to wal-mart...yay. The happiest place in Keokuk. Then we colored in coloring books together...must be a relapse of kiddy bonding time. It was cool though.

I'm feeling icky again...stomach hates me. Didn't get much sleep last night so I tried to nap today to make up for it but I still came up short. So I think tomorrow I'll try to take two naps or nap twice as long. Unless I don't sleep tonight then I'll just not leave my bed until I'm resteded.

I'm so bored lately. I should get another hobby...like knitting or something. We have a sewing machine now so I can fix a pair of my maternity capris that I cut off myself. Heat and hem is cool but not for repeated washings if you don't actually sew the hem. So now I actually have to sew the hem. Plus we have some material to make a maternity shirt out of..should be fairly cute. Mom is trying to figure out how we can reuse my maternity clothes after I have the baby. Some of them are really really cute...the pants are basically gone but we might be able to just shrink the shirts or something...sew a straight line instead of the pear they are lol. The capris and jeans I have will probably either be sold, given away or tossed. Also I have no regular clothes now. Like...one pair of jeans and a skirt. So I'll need to buy new clothes after the baby unless I want to continue to wear prego clothes...which...I don't think I will. We aren't sure what size I will be so I can't buy any yet...waiting is fun.

Getting antsy. Moving in on the 34th week now....37-40 is full term I think So I'm pretty close...Can't wait to see my baby...I'm so excited. Being pregnant is weird. Sometimes I'll be sitting in a chair doing nothing and the baby will kick and it's just...suprising. Random movements take time to get used to. I was sitting in my circle chair today with my arms on my stomach and the baby started to turn and I could feel him/her sliding under my skin....weird but really neat. I've done so many loads of baby clothes and blankets and sheets and stuff I've used like 3 bottles of dreft already. Dreft smells so nice...it's like twice as much as regular detergent but still. Now they have color/fragrance free fabric softener...it kinda smells like glue honestly...but I can't use it anyway because it reduses flame retardency on sleepers supposedly. My baby isn't going to be anywhere near a flame but still. Nice to know though if my baby has allergies to fabric softener. Anyways...I'm all out of words...I'll bore you all later. =)
