Mini is the size of a: a cucumber (how a cucumber is larger than an eggplant is beyond me) (15 in., 2.2 lbs.)
Maternity Clothes: yes ma'am!
Stretch Marks: Stay the hell away!
Sleep: Nightly bathroom visits and the very awful SPD which I'll explain below.
Symptoms: SPD is Symphysis Pubic Dysfunction. For weeks now I felt like I have pulled a muscle in my left inner thigh. The Symphysis Pubis is the joint that connects the two halves of your pelvis. Common in pregnancy this joint stretches because your body produces a hormone called relaxin (ha! Anything but!) which softens these ligaments so eventually the baby can pass through the pelvis. Well needless to say it hurts like hell. Putting on my pants and sleeping are so uncomfortable I literally wince. Sadly it looks like this is going to hang around for the last 13 weeks of my pregnancy.

Nursery: We purchased a chair for the nursery (sadly not the Pottery Barn one) but still I am pretty excited about it and it's comfortable! Picked out paint for the dresser, highchair and nightstand. I have also started picking up some little things like baby laundry detergent and such. I know it's a bit early to be doing that but when I see it in my cartwheel app I buy it while it's on sale.
Emotions: Had a major temper TANTRUM Saturday morning - like woah. Blame the baby what can I say.
