Starting to feel like a mama!

So, what is the definition of a normal pregnancy?

So far I've had a pretty easy pregnancy, and there is not one mom out there that I could talk to that would put easy and pregnancy in the same sentance. Nausea, sore boobs, food cravings, food aversions, cramping, bloating....should I go on? Besides my ever growing belly, I would never have guessed I was pregnant, (until last night that is!) I haven't have any of those symptoms. No morning, evening, or night sickness what-so-ever? That's absolutely unheard of in ANY pregnancy! But I'll take it!

I'm not sure if the 3rd trimester exhaustion is sneaking up on me early or if my 3 trips in May are finally catching up to me, but last night was an absolute nightmare. I was soooo close to going out on disability until our little lady bug arrived. But, should I really be complaining since this was the first extremely rough night I've had in almost 27 weeks? Being a new mom isn't an easy task, but it's definitely worth it!

I couldn't get comfortable in bed. I tried to lay on my left side, I had to switch to my right side. I tried to lay on my right side, and I had to flip to my back. I laid on my back, and my belly was too heavy to even be somewhat comfortable. I thought this wasn't supposed to start until the last 4 or 5 weeks of pregnancy? Sheesh!

My back pain was unreal, I tossed and turned like a rotissere chicken, and I kept getting this horrific pain under my right breast. The pain under my right breast has been on and off for about 8 weeks now. It comes and goes, and only disturbs my sleep once or twice a week. I'm not sure if it's a pulled muscle, or if it's heartburn related, but it's definitely not fun. To top it off my awesome nights sleep, my son had a belly ache, and got me out of bed at 12:38am to go outside. He ate tons of grass and attempted to go number two. I heard his belly rumbling overtop of that annoying bird chirping, (lack of sleep/grumpiness on my end) and felt so bad for him, but unfortunately there was nothing I could do except stand there wrapped in my Steelers blanket until he was ready to go inside and lay back down.

I'm definitely ready for the sleepless nights that are involved in being a first time mom, and I don't want to rush the baking time at all, but the unknown pain and inability to get comfortable isn't fun.

I'm hoping my little lady bug will help me to get comfortable....afterall, I'm a snuggle bug!
