2 Months to Go
If I hear one more person comment on how huge I am, I'm going to scream!
For the life of me I can't understand how some women just LOVE being pregnant, they come alive, they glow. From the minute they find out the good news they are just completely enraptured in it all.
I am NOT one of those women.
I am miserable, and crabby, and just wish each and every day to be put out of my misery. I hate my gigantic belly and I absolutely hate the fact that everyone feels the compulsion to comment on how 'big' I've become.
It's almost like a statement of shock.
I already KNOW how big I am, I do own a mirror. Must you people remind me every second of the day with each new conversation I have??
Yesterday I was in the main isle at work when one of my coworkers yelled out to me, from almost across the plant, commenting how I was really starting to 'pop out there'. Naturally, every eye in the vicinity was upon me. I wanted to die.
November 19th can not get here soon enough.
In other news: I found out this week that I have also developed gestational diabetes. Apparently the placenta can, in some women, block the mother's ability to make and use all the insulin in their body.
So far I am fortunate, however. I do not need to do insulin shots.
Let's just hope my luck is with me for the rest of the pregnancy. I am already on an almost starvation diet, I can not imagine having to intentionally give myself insulin shots on top of that.
One last tidbit of info: The lady from the employment agency did not call me back with the details as she had stated she would. While I find it completely unprofessional, I am a bit relieved as well.

Is is any consolation to know you at least look pregnant? When I was pregnant, I just looked fat.
I'm with you Sherri - My mom WAS one of those gals who crowed about how "fun" it was to be pregnant... !!! NOT I.
I was huge, hot, barfy, miserable and did I say huge??? I wish you the fastest 54 days ever as you get to the baby-end of your term. Just imagine that moment when you get to lay flat on your belly again :)
Who knows, maybe you'll be furthering your education. Maybe a lack of a call is a nudge in the right direction.
Take care, gestational diabetes can be rough.
I'd like to point out that the baby-gaga banner at the top of your blog mentions your water retention and cankles.
I can't imagine being pregnant. It scares the crap out of me.
Glad I'm a man!
Where the heck are you?
Did you have the baby? My Sweetie's daughter was due November 25, but guess what? We got an early phone call today from Hawaii - the baby was born a month early! Mom and daughter are fine. Maybe you'll be lucky too Sherri and have your baby early!
Hi Sherri! Just checking in, I haven't blogged in a couple of months and noticed you haven't either. I hope everything is alright!
Ta Ta For Now...
Umm...HELLO! Anyone home???
*knocks on the glass*
Hope everything and everyone are O.K. Check in with someone when you get a minute, please???
