I didn't get the chance to post yesterday, so here are some random things I've been doing:
-- last night, I volunteered to serve the Wednesday night supper. I am getting to be good friends with some of the people in our young adult Sunday school class. Some have very young children, others don't, but all in all, it's a nice mix of friends and I'm thankful. It was a long day though, leaving me very tired this morning.
-- I got the results back from the cystic fibrosis test I took. I'm not a carrier, which mean peanut doesn't have it. They also tested for other things, but they escape me at the moment. Today I am going back for routine bloodwork and also a test to see if I'm a carrier of Down's. *fingers crossed* I have a very active peanut though and I just know she's going to be as smart as her daddy. :-)
-- I wore my regular pants today. Although I can proudly say that I fit in them still, they are a bit tight and I doubt the peanut like being squished. (*note to self, only maternity clothes from now on).
-- the changes taking place in my body amaze me-- the changes other than my growing belly. I have a stuffy nose, darker nipples, a puffier face, and you can see my veins easier. Weird!
Posted by Hannah at November 3, 2005 08:13 AMI remember looking at myself in the mirror after taking a shower once, when I was pregnant ~ and the veins in my chest were literally popping out! It was SO unreal!!! I couldn't believe it. And they're still that way ~ probably due to nursing. The *day* that I hit week 12, it was like I had instant allergies. Very strange how pregnancy affects our bodies! Oh, and the nipple thing ... that happened to me, too, and they haven't changed back in color yet! LOL! :)
