The profuse farting is back and I&#8217;m definitely having a hormone surge lately but I feel pretty good otherwise. I had cravings for legumes last week so we had lots of lentils, chickpeas, and cannelini beans. Tonight we&#8217;re having bowls of beans and rice. No, the farting isn&#8217;t because of the beans. It was actually worse when I didn&#8217;t have beans. Pizza was a major culprit. Whoa, look out if I&#8217;ve had pizza. I&#8217;m sorry Tom. Intense intestinal gas and small B&#038;B rooms don&#8217;t mix. I can&#8217;t get enough fresh fruits and vegetables. This weekend we ate out a lot and it felt really good to be home, eating the fresh stuff. I had radishes, grapefruit, a banana, and blueberries for breakfast yesterday. Salads are big in our house right now.<\/p>\n<p>I tend to have a little more energy lately. In fact I&#8217;m having trouble sleeping every other night. I do a lot of tossing and turning. Six o&#8217;clock seems to be my body&#8217;s latest favorite wake-up time. Now that a majority of the unpacking is done, I don&#8217;t feel quite so stressed. I&#8217;ve been painting the baby room and mulching the garden.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/angrypirate\/4476518417\/\" title=\"progress by Alanna Risse, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4003\/4476518417_3c534e4825.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" alt=\"progress\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Baby is kicking me like crazy. I can feel a few different &#8220;techniques.&#8221; Sometimes I can feel her pushing out like she&#8217;s stretching. Sometimes I feel what must be her doing angel wings in my belly. The kicks are sometimes strong enough to be a little uncomfortable. I know that&#8217;s only going to get worse.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re loving the new house. I can&#8217;t wait til the baby room is painted and we can set up the crib. We need to find a dresser sometime soon. So far baby has a crib and a rug from Ikea, high chair from Marc, a bassinet, bathtub, and an assortment of clothes from Monique. I&#8217;ve been dreaming about BOB strollers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m past the halfway mark now and looking more pregnant every day.
