29-22 weeks

Week 29

Its getting close! Only about a month left here in Nigeria, then I go back to Austin to wait for baby to arrive. She's not due until Feb 16, but due to airline travel restrictions, when I go home for Xmas, I'll stay there. I had two dreams that I can remember this weekend -- the first one was that I was in a mall and there was a bookstore on the floor above me, and one below me. I had a whole selection of books to choose from. The 2nd one was that I was in a Texas grocery store and I shopped down every aisle. That's it. Those were my dreams. I dreamt that I had a selection of anything I wanted.

Week 26

Week 22

Its amazing how much one can grow in a week. My belly has ballooned and now I am obviously pregnant. I guess your first pregnancy, it can take a little longer to show since your body isn't so elastic yet. I haven't gained that much weight yet-- which somehow has allowed me to eat as much chocolate as I want. Which worries me a little bit because I am sure it will catch up with me and she could get big big big fast fast fast, especially when I get back to the US and indulge in the foods I've been deprived of. That's in 2 months! Soon. Anyway, if I don't start showing a little self control around chocolate, it could be the beginning of a difficult delivery.

She's starting to kick now.
