I am just now starting to feel a little ... uncomfortable??? I think that is the word I am looking for. My feet have been swollen since I got on the plane to go to Boston. I've had swelling for weeks, but this is grosser. Swelling is not painful, but it just doesn't look good. The neat trick my feet have learned is that, when pushed or pressed, they hold the imprint. They are big, jelly-like paws, kind of like a puppy whose paws are just too big for his body. My other new complaint is a complete lack of bendiness. Yes, bendiness, as in if I drop something on the floor, I just kind of look at it, wondering how I am going to get down there to pick it up.
I had an ultrasound yesterday and Baby P was estimated to be 5 lb, 13 oz. (measuring about a week ahead of schedule), with HAIR! The weight was surprising to me (that is a regular-sized baby, PEOPLE!) but the fact that he/she has hair was the biggest shock. No idea why the hair got to me, but I am starting to get nervous for the first time. This is really happening.
