My Love Affair With Chocolate

I recently learned that my unhealthy relationship with chocolate is genetic! When my mom was pregnant, she used to tell dad that they needed milk, and she'd head out to the shop, but 2 or 3 candy bars and scarf them down on the way home!! Now I know why as a child I would always try to sneak as much candy as I could get my hot little hands on! My mom sneaking chocolate with me in utero has made me the chocolate fiend (and childhood candy snatcher) that I am today! My kids don't stand a chance!!

This is totally how I feel- Week 28

Third Trimester!!

As of tomorrow, I will offically be SIX MONTHS PREGNANT! The third trimester has come, baby! So now I get to start freaking out about being a parent soon. Crap! What am I thinking! And there's still way too much to do! I'm not saying that I'd like a pregnancy to last LONGER, but it would be nice to have a FEW more preparation months...

Antenatal Class

I had my first antenatal class today. Apparently at my hospital, they've split up the classes between two bodies... the physical therapists and the parent information. So I'm now on my physical therapy classes where we learn about pain, stretching, posture, labor and so on. It was actually quite nice to be in a room full of pregnant bellies. I have a few pregnant friends here, but we've yet to get together to compare notes (better get on that!). So chatting about pregnancy issues was really pleasant. The PT who did the class is the one I'm seeing one on one for my hip...which is just a little tender. It's too bad that partners aren't allowed in these sessions, though, as I'd really like Rob to be able to go and learn about these stages.... not sure how much I'll remember!!

I just found out today that I will start my parent info classes NEXT week! And Rob gets to go to those! Already my life is revolving around this little devil! I've got a PT appointment Monday morning, parent info classes Tues morning and PT classes Wed morning and GP baby visit Thur morning! When am I going to see the inside of my office to get some work done!
