Unlike its creepy avatar in my sidebar, Little Kid #6 likes to move. There\u2019s not a lot of passive floating around and sleeping going on in there. From what I can observe, there\u2019s a disco in there and #6 is doin\u2019 the Hustle. It\u2019s either that or advanced acrobatics. Either way this kid is in trouble because there\u2019s no way I gave permission for that kind of activity.<\/p>\n
To the other children\u2019s disappointment, #6 isn\u2019t big enough to be felt by anyone but me. Yet. I\u2019m okay with that. I like this part of pregnancy where I get to know the newbie without having to share him (or, please God, her) with the world quite yet. It is just the two of us, sharing this body an this space. We\u2019re like the dude on Alien but with a happier outcome. It\u2019s similar though since I too will have a 6 pound screaming creature come pushing its way out of my lower abdomen. So, yeah, similar but better because I get drugs. Mmmmmm\u2026epidurals\u2026..If I could just get one of those for the last 6 weeks or so, man..I\u2019d so do that!<\/p>\n
I\u2019m at that point where the baby moving feels like sweet little bubbles and the need for maternity clothes depends on how comfortable I want to be. I\u2019m getting the wondering looks from people in stores as they try and figure out if I really am crazy enough to have a sixth. I seem like such a nice person; surely lunatics wear signs or something. In a few weeks, there will no longer be any doubt, and the quizzical glances will become shocked stares of disbelief.<\/p>\n
Until now, the main proof that a baby was coming has been in the copious amounts of pumpkin seeds I\u2019ve been eating. Man, those things are good. The way I\u2019m eating them you\u2019d think they grow on plants or something. Wouldn\u2019t that be awesome? If pumpkin seeds grew on plants? And you could just go and pick them instead of having to clean off the shelf at the grocery store? Dude, what a wonderful, crazy world that would be.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
