a little funny

sometimes i forget i'm pregnant. is that weird? am i the only one this happens to? there are moments when i'm SO pregnant that i can't help but know that i am, but in other moments it sneaks up on me.

early in the morning is one of the times that it happens the most. i'll get undressed to shower and catch my reflection in the mirror and stop short because the belly surprises me! how can that happen after all these months? i just laugh and move on...

i was in target tonight buying cold medicine and cough drops (and a couple christmas gifts for others) because i just got my second pregnancy cold. yuck. my purchases were being rung up and the woman behind me said "how are you feeling?" i thought to myself "oh no, was i sniffling? how does she know i have a cold? do i look that bad? who is this woman? a co-worker? a patient?" finally i realized she was talking about the pregnancy and i tapped my stomach and said "oh this?" nice mom...i refer to my baby as "this." anyway this woman had no idea about the cold...she was just being nice and asking about the pregnancy! i laughed at myself all the way out of the store.
