Updated the rolling slide show of my belly's progress (see right side of screen). I could watch it forever!

Confessions of a Pregnant Drama Queen

I know it's been a while since I've made an entry, but the truth is that there aren't a whole lot of things exciting me about pregnancy right now: between my feet nearly doubling in size by the day's end and the ground shaking when I walk.

Luckily I have a faithful entourage who has helped keep me from crying or severely disliking myself during this phase. This includes
- my husband who is on full-time "keep Amber happy" watch
- and the sweet ladies I work with who somehow see my belly and the rest of my figure which I think is trying to grow at the same rate as cute.
Without these comrades, I don't think I would make it out of the house in the mornings.

Nevertheless, I feel this video PERFECTLY (and more important, HUMOROUSLY) describes the way I perceive myself:

Dr. Jansky and Me (month 7)

Well the big news of this month is me! And boy do I mean BIG! Apparently I've been eating my vegetables ... and everything else in sight which has resulted in a 10lb weight gain in 4 weeks! Surely this can't all be food-related, but just to be sure, its time to lay off the french fries, and ice cream, and burgers, and all those other foods which are causing my rear to grow at the same rate as my belly :\
Everything else was fine and normal. One of the really crazy things is that after my appt next month, I'll start coming in every two weeks - we're getting close!
