Jul. 8th, 2002 04:58 pmNew thing I learned: Tour de France riders pee in the saddle.
I'm well into the 'Bill Clinton' phase of pregnancy now. 'Ah feel your pain.' It's very strange. I get all wrapped up in any suffering I hear about or imagine. I don't always realise I'm doing it either. This morning, I felt sad about kids in foster care, in general, not even in the specific. I couldn't enjoy Lilo and Stitch the other day because I spent most of the time fighting off tears. I probably should have just bawled my eyes out. It wouldn't have done any harm, but I'm just not used to it. I both become emotionally involved more easily and feel tears come on at a lower threshold of distress.
Yup, it's all coming back to me now. :) I have to eat every 2 hours, I have to pee almost as often as I have to eat, I want to take a nap almost as often as I have to pee, and I feel tears coming on, rather less often than I want to nap, thank you providence. Sore nipples, 3 a.m. snacks, hot flashes, increased libido... Believe it or not, I'm getting off on all this. :) Hope I have some leads on local midwives waiting for me at home.
