5 signs you're about to have a kid.

It is has been over a month since my last blog post... I have truly wanted to write, but haven't had the energy or the time.  Now I find myself into my first day of maternity leave (woo hoo) and a week away from my due date (June 12).  For the first time in a while, I have had a moment to take a breath, relax, and type.

Last week the doctor told us that I was exhibiting signs of pre-labor and was dilated to 2cm.  Exciting, right?  Well, it is basically a waiting game now because the signs the doctor saw could mean tomorrow or two weeks away.  However, I know that the end of this pregnancy is approaching and the beginning of my child's life outside the womb is near because of the following signs....

1.  My boobs are leaking.

Sorry guys who just read that, but it's a fact of life.  My body is preparing to become the main source of food for my little one.

2.  There is actually space again between my belly and my boobs again.

Again, my apologies for talking about my boobs... just means that Peanut has dropped and gravity is bringing him or her closer to life outside of me.

3.  I am on a hormonal roller coaster ride.

Seriously, I am like someone diagnosed with bipolar disorder.  Two days ago, I thought everything in the world sucked, a product of my Eeyore-like depressive symptoms.  Then, a couple of days later I woke up with a maniac-like attitude.  I thought that everything in life was wonderful and I made the rash decision to tell my hairstylist to dye my hair platinum blonde.... I look like the mean kid in Slytherin house from Harry Potter.  The next day a watched Ghost on tv for the bazillionth time and cried like a baby... I mean sobs were involved.

4.  Braxton Hicks now feel like a kick in the stomach.

Literally, these things feel like I am getting the wind knocked out of me.  They are supposed to get stronger as you get closer to labor... great.

5.  I forgot what this one is...

Truly, my brain is shot to hell.  Somedays I can't even remember my own name.  "Baby brain" only gets worse the further along you get in your pregnancy.

This is all I have for now, I keep you posted...
