Me and U

Picture:
1:39 AM: a buck-naked, overheated, irrationally incensed pregnant woman, strung out on sodium and sugar from a pulled pork sandwich and way too many whole grain chocolate chip cookies (ostensibly nutritionally valuable, but actually composed entirely of pregnancy crack) gets up and yanks her new acquisition, a U shaped pregnancy sleeping pillow, which takes up nearly the whole bed and weighs nearly as much as her pre-pregnancy weight, from said bed and onto the floor. With tears in her eyes, she gathers her previous system, a complicated collection of normal sized pillows in varying states of dilapidation, tosses them on the bed, marches off to the office to admit her folly on her blog, and then returns to the scene of her U shaped crime to attempt to gather any sleep still available to be had that night, not to mention the shreds of her dignity.

Thoughts:
1) Thank goodness Bruno isn't home to witness her pillow mutilation.
2) Thank goodness he comes home tomorrow. Apparently, she's become a bit unglued.

Wow, Lisa, I hadn't checked your blog for a couple of months, and am so thrilled to see that you're pregnant again! I'm 9 weeks along myself. Honestly, I thought I would have less anxiety with this pregnancy because we have had a healthy baby since our losses, but it's still pretty nerve-wracking. I'm going to a subsequent pregnancy HAND meeting tonight.

I hope the next few months are easy and you have an unremarkable pregnancy that brings you two healthy babies!

Hugs,
Jen
