18 Weeks and Looking Legit
I think I’m looking legitimately pregnant and not just chubby around the middle.
This pregnancy is so different. I’m still pretty mobile and strong. I’ve only gained two pounds so far. I can sleep comfortably on my back, I don’t pass out from blood sugar drops and I’m finding myself in decent spirits most days.
Come to think of it, stretches of time go by without me thinking much about the pregnancy.
And then … I feel something. A flutter. A tiny flick of a limb. The roundness of a little body growing inside of me. And I remember, happily and gratefully, that I am carrying our third child — a beautiful little girl who is going to make her own unique place in our growing family.

We got a cash offer on our house last week. Therapy is going well. My mom is coming tonight for a two-week visit and I can’t wait to show off my wonderful daughters to their Amama.
Life’s not so bad today. I think I’ll go out and spend some time with my three favorite girls in the world.
