Lots going on. So I&#8217;m 34 days from my due date. I&#8217;m starting to feel the ill effects of pregnancy. Sore tailbone, tired, sore, sore, tired, and tired. Harder to tie shoes, harder to pick things up off the ground when I&#8217;m sitting in a chair. Laborious things like putting records on the turntable no longer hold any interest to me. Tom&#8217;s been a great help around the house lately. I&#8217;ve tended to be much better at talking about the things that need to get done than actually doing them. That&#8217;s not like me at all. I&#8217;ve paired down to the bare essentials. Bed, food, couch, shower, bath. I try to get Tom to drive whenever possible. I&#8217;m walking more slowly, and getting out of bed more slowly.<\/p>\n<p>I had a scare on Sunday. I woke up with cramp-like pains that slowly got worse over a period of about 4-5 hours. The pain got bad enough to produce tears, and I was hunched over our chair with a million pillows to support my belly for a couple hours. Early contractions. Not good, not good. She&#8217;s too little still. She needs to stay in there at least a couple more weeks. So I need to remove all stress from my life. Sitting in front of a computer for hours at a time is probably the worse thing I can do for my belly. It feels all compressed and uncomfortable, and whenever I stand up, I feel the ill effects. So I told my work this morning, I need to take a backseat asap.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday I felt pretty good, just a little crampy, but I think things are mostly calming down in my abdominal region. This morning I felt really tight, so I took a walk and a bath. I&#8217;m feeling much better now. But I&#8217;m nervous, and I want to go sit in the pool down the street. My brain is telling me to sever all commitments so that I can focus on getting my body to feel better. In general I do not feel good.<\/p>\n<p>I think she moved and I can&#8217;t tell which end is up anymore. Seems like her head is on the right side of my abdomen instead of straight down like it&#8217;s been. This worries me too. Time for yoga and swimming would make me feel so much better.<\/p>\n<p>We got our car seat and I ordered our stroller from REI. Tom got the bed set he had his heart set on and Juniper&#8217;s room looks pretty darn cute. Tom&#8217;s sister sent us a blankie that is now permanently attached to the glider as far as I&#8217;m concerned. <\/p>\n<p>I think I gained a couple pounds! So I think things are in good shape as far as weight goes. As long as I can either stay the same or gain each week I&#8217;ll feel better. I had been loosing weight there for a while.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/alannarisse.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4257\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4257\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alannarisse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/alanna_muddyrudder-375x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"alanna_muddyrudder\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4257\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I think Mississippi is getting anxious. She destroyed my Danskos last night. A couple nights ago she ate 5 crayons that were left out after our baby shower. She rarely ever actually destroys things. She destroyed a pair of Tom&#8217;s slippers ages and ages ago, but this is a strange new behavior for her. I wonder if she knows what&#8217;s coming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh boy, let&#8217;s see. Lots going on. So I&#8217;m 34 days from my due date.
