So, it only seems natural that this week is one of the best weeks of my pregnancy thus far, right?
Well, sure enough, as luck would have it, I lost something on Saturday night, but I have already found it!
My ankles.
You heard me correctly. It happened. My ankles went away. I came home from a 4-bar, I-am-the-coolest-pregnant-wife-on-the planet evening with great friends and family and sat on the couch when I noticed it.
My ankles no longer had ankle bones.
My calves continued right into my puffy little insoles.
Kyle tried to help assuage my shock by giving me a quick foot rub, but considering it was a 4-bar evening, this was an ineffective treatment.
So I sat with my feet WAY up on the back of the couch and downed some water.
Was it the super over-salted popcorn at bar #4?
Was it dancing to the blues band?
Was it simply drinking a ton of water, a tea, and a root beer over the course of the evening?
Or would my ankles be gone for good?
This story has a happy ending.
THEY ARE BACK!!! That is exactly why I am sure that 32 IS my lucky number!
Other positives of the week to further support my claim:
-Another clean bill of health at the doctor this week
-A great evaluation at school
-My sorority kick-off party is Thursday, which is always fun
-We got the baby's room painted!
Overall, I'd say that it would be hard to argue against the fact that this is a great week to be pregnant.
32 weeks (almost) in front of our newly-painted nursery wall! |
Love it! You are getting into the home stretch. Each week is going to fly by from here on out.
