Twenty-six Weeks


26weeks

But yeah, I'm 26 weeks pregnant now. Two nights ago I got a wicked charlie horse in my leg, and it's still sore. My calf muscles have started cramping up a little even when I'm awake. I guess that happens in some pregnancies, but I don't know why. As far as I'm concerned, everything from the chest up and the hips down should be exempt from pregnancy pains. What do my calves have to do with having a baby? Nothing, that's what. My calves should be left alone.

On the plus side Philo was kicking a bunch today. That makes me happy...I like knowing that he's in there. I'd still prefer a viewing window, but until my doctor's willing to install one in my belly, kicks will do just fine.

    Do you have a middle name chosen for Philo?

  • Ok, lemme try again. Cute pregnancy belly. :) We'll have to get together soon because you could be a mommy as early as 11 weeks from now. Gabby was born at 37 weeks. I'm excited that I'm going to get to learn some things from you. Maybe if you make cloth diapering and babywearing look easy, I might convert. :)

  • When I get leg cramps I take three or four tums. You get relief very quickly. The muscle cramps are about calcium deficiency. Philo's taking his share and leaving you very little if any.
