As far as I know, I'm still pregnant. No evidence to the contrary. I have a doctor's appointment next week.

Morning sickness is easier to deal with this time around. Either it's less severe overall, or I've gotten the hang of eating at the right times to keep it under control. If I don't eat soon enough in the morning, I tend to feel miserable for the rest of the day though.

Even though I'm eating, I've apparently lost about 5lbs. Not sure how that happened.

I've had three dreams about the baby. Two were relatively realistic in detail, and the baby was a girl. The other was somewhat ridiculous (I ended up getting sent for a 5-D ultrasound...) and the baby was a boy, who we named Jack. Uh huh.

I don't look pregnant. Maybe a little fatter, but nothing like the pictures I see people posting in my due date communities. I'm supposed to start showing earlier this time, but I suppose earlier is relative. I have one pair of pants that is comfortable, and another that I can wear if I do the rubber band trick. Some of my others might fit too, but I don't like them for one reason or another, so I haven't tried.

I'm wondering if the weather will work in my favor and I can get away with buying just maternity shorts, no pants. That would be amusing, though I expect I'll need at least one pair of pants for chilly mornings or evenings, at least.

Hello there! Glad to hear that the morning sickness isn't too bad. Did you have realistic dreams about Leif? My only somewhat realistic preggy dream (I had many really whacko unrealistic ones) was with Z as a toddler, blond really curly hair, but otherwise similar to how he looks now.

Not that I can remember. I only remember one dream I had while pregnant with him, and it wasn't realistic and he hadn't been born yet in the dream.

Of course, back then I didn't have any experience to create a realistic dream out of.

:P All my dreams of Brenna Rose were that she was tiny tiny. I thought I was silly for having them/told myself not to pay attention to them. Guess I should have paid attention. Of couse next time everything will be fine and I'll have bad dreams anyway and freak myself out!

My pregnancy dreams were so vivid and many of them uspetting. Even the ones that weren't sad/scary were just so intense! I was somewhat glad when they stopped after I had her.
