That Burning Sensation

This is the first discomfort I've had to deal with in quite some time (due to pregnancy, not malt-o-meal). I have this really uncomfortable burning sensation on the top of my abdomen. I'm sure it's just due to my skin stretching, but it's no fun. It started about 1 week ago and I've grown quite a bit this past week.

She moves so much more defined now. Last night, I think I felt a hand/foot. Instead of just a general quick movement, or a all around push, there felt like a little nub in the middle of my tummy. I'm sure it was an appendage. :) How cute.

I've only got 52 sleeps left until my due date. Crazy. I can't believe how fast time is going.

Wow it is so close. I am so freakin excited. Have you guys gotten any closer to choosing a name for my grandchild? I love you bubbalah.

Yeeeeaahhhhhh! Oh, and two nights ago I had a dream you were mad at me for punching a girl that threw paint on us. I don't really know what to make of that..

Mom, don't expect us to pick a name before she's born. We just aren't gonna make that commitment.

Michelle, I really doubt I'd get mad at you in real life for punching someone who threw paint on us, if that is any consolation. And your dad may be a good person to ask about what to make of the dream. :)

I think I had that too... It kind of felt like someone was tearing apart my muscles. Then a friend of mine cheerfully pointed out that it was probably my muscles tearing a little bit. :)

Julia, even though that is probably true, it sounds incredibly unpleasant.

Julia said...

Yea that's kind of what I thought too... The good news is that mine went away after a few weeks so hopefully yours will too!

NO prob Nik. No matter what her name is, it will be right once we use it and look at her. I love her to pieces even calling her my grandbaby belly! :) But can't say it isn't fun to guess at names!
