1/2 Mile! Pregnancy half full or half empty? Ooooohhhh oooo half way there... ooooo ohhhhhh sing it! Ok so it's obviously 20 weeks... Sorry for the late post and this will be a short one because in 2 hours we find out the chromosomal situation aka. gonads aka. nuts or peanut free aka. bronco or filly.
Needless to say, I'm really excited. So excited that I told everyone in my first prenatal class last night when I was just supposed to say my name. Of course nobody cared as they all have their own buns to worry about, but now they know... you are welcome RBWH Active Pregnancy Physiotherapy Class.
I was a bit nervous for the class at first because the sheet said "bring a water bottle and a towel" Gulp. With my athletic track record this could have been one of those "take basketball in 7th grade but never make one basket the entire season" moments. Been there, done that, scarred for life. Lucky for everyone involved no strenuous exercise was required. I also knew all the pregnancy anatomy questions. Visualise the one person in class with their hand raised jumping up and down to answer the question,
"Oh that was a rhetorical question? I'll still answer that just to be safe."
Nailed it! By now everyone hated me even more. To top it off we have Andy doing all the exercises with the pregnant ladies. All the other husbands just sat there but Andy did his kegels along with the rest of us. We are going to win at this damn pregnancy thing if it kills us!
While it's great having a supportive husband it seems that if I tell him something about pregnancy and my body it goes in one ear and out the other. However, if someone else tells him then it's gospel. Last night watching Catfish (after the class) Andy's says, "Ummm, you shouldn't be on your back." Ok fair enough... This morning I woke up and was stretching a bit on my back then rolled over onto my side to go back to sleep and I hear this creepy whisper,
"Good girl."
