"I feel pregnant," were the words spoken moments after conception -- believe it or not, I was only joking. I didn't feel pregnant, I felt tired and eager for more careless teenage sex. At eighteen, I am now the Mother of a beautiful little girl.

36 Weeks: Belly Has Dropped!
My belly has obviously dropped. This means I can actually zip up sweaters! Although, I waddle a hell of a lot more now and I constantly have to pee. I've been getting Braxton Hicks contractions almost daily and everything aches. I'm 36 weeks a long as of today and I am READY! I have everything I need for this little girl... although, I still need to wash everything. Such a tedious task I've been delaying for so long. My body is more than ready, can you tell?
The only thing left to do is .....pick a name. Every time I choose a name, my boyfriend insults it. It's really pissing me off because I want us to AGREE and I want us both to love the name. We're going to have to say this name for the rest of our lives so we might as well like it. He loves the name Kairi and I am using it for the middle name, but this name makes it incredibly difficult to settle on a first name. Kairi is so modern! And I have such old fashioned taste. However, the two of us agree on Norah but I'm unsure if it goes well together. Norah Kairi. Ughhghghgh! I'm going to come up with a list and tell him to cross out every name he dislikes. If he crosses out the entire list, all Hell will break lose.

Teenager
I feel like living at home and being a "teenager" totally ruined the full experience of being pregnant. It hasn't been 100% exciting and beautiful, it's been sort of annoying. I'm really excited to move out with Matthew and finally have our family together! It's going to be soo hard but so totally worth it. We can do it.
Also, I have decided to wait until Matthew and I see our baby girl and then choose a name.
So far my list is:
Alexia
Ava
Norah
Lara
I really like Norah but it doesn't fit with the middle name, Kairi. Kairi is way too modern for a classic name like Norah. So I'm leaning towards Ava. Ava is popular and flows well with Kairi. Ava Kairi. I like it.

Yeast Infection
The last infection I got was in '10 in the beginning of my pregnancy. It burned like hell. This one is causing me severe cramps. I've been cramping all week. Braxton Hicks? I don't know what the hell to call any of this because it's all so new to me. All I know for certain is that I have a yeast infection. That plus baby equals constant peeing, cramps, and intense moodiness. I want to crawl into my bed and hide from the fucking world.
39 days left! Hurry up!

Potential Name Change
So, I have fallen in love with a name.
Norah.
This was one of my boyfriend's first name suggestions. But I keep thinking about it and it seems to fit so perfectly. Not to mention it means: honor; sun ray, shining light; woman of honor; compassion; light - according to this website apparently
Anyway, I'm going to tell my boyfriend that I'm pretty set on this name now and see what he has to say!

34 Weeks
I suppose it's about time I update my blog properly instead of pictures and half ass sentences!
I can feel my daughter's head as well as feet. Her head is on my left side and her feet are constantly sticking out on my right side. If you look at this video you will be able to see me rub my left side (her head) and see the right of me freak out (her feet). I read that she should be in position by now, or getting into position because as the next few weeks go on, she will have less and less room. I don't want a breech baby! My OB appointment is on Monday so I'll have a chat with him then to see if there's anyway to tell if Alexia is getting ready for go time!
My boobs are sore. My nipples are sore. Sore ... that's not even a fitting word for my breast region. I'm producing colostrum like a cow, literally. I squeeze my boobs the same way a farmer would milk a cow, and out comes the yellow nutritious but surely not delicious milk. I also cannot cross my legs comfortably. Jeans do not fit, I don't know why I still bother. I feel absolutely gross and fat and I hate my body in clothes. I really do feel a thousand times better naked. Once this little girl is out I am totally getting my ass to the gym! Hmmm.. what else? Alexia has taken over my bladder completely. She probably thinks of it as a jumping castle. I'm always eating and always feeling guilty for it. I'm always tired but I can't sleep. I've noticed that wearing no bra/shirt when I sleep helps a lot though...
There is six weeks left and although I am super excited for Alex's birth day, I'm also dreading it! Once she's born, I will no longer be able to cuddle with myself and feel her kicks. I won't be able to say, "oooo I'm pregnant," nor will I be able to bitch about being pregnant! Yes, I will miss bitching. I'll also miss not having a period ...once I give birth, that's 6 weeks ofBLOOD and NO SEX! I have never gone six weeks with either. I am NOT looking forward to this at all! My boyfriend thinks I will be happily giving him blow jobs in my bloody diapers ...no...no I don't think that's something I'll be doing.
41 days left until my screaming terror of cute arrives!
