I think rectal pressure is a nice combo of words. Don't you?

Yesterday, Alyssa took me to Crystal Crescent Beach and I went swimming in the ocean. I walked in slowly cause I don't want my baby to have a friggin heart attack. I cupped my hands and poured the cold water over my belly to help us both adjust. She didn't give a shit. Really. Normally I would jump right in...freezing shocked limbs and all. My nipples were troopers. They went for it. People really like to stare at pregnant women. They stare a lot. Life fascinates people.

After we walked out the ocean everything sparkled sharp. Like I'd just done drugs.

I have a question. For the moms out there.

It's about my areolas.

Mine have gone from a sexy quarter sized, light pink to dark mottled brown (with new moles and freckles!!!) and have grown QUITE LARGE (ie: they take up my whole tit now, especially the one on the right). I realize this is for the baby and it helps her find the nipple or whatever. Maybe it'll help Tweedie find the nipple too. Who knows. Anyway...

I found an old pastie from my burlesque days in my suitcase while packing my washable nursing pads and my diapers. Put it up to my nipple.

All I can say is. Wow.

So, my question.

Are they gonna go back? I don't care about the actual nipple. I care about my areolas. Will they go back to quarter sized pink circles or what?

Thanks.

I am so uncomfortable. Being pregnant sucks.

-my back aches
-my hips ache and I can't sleep because of it
-my feet feel like I wear high heels all day and stand at a cash register except I'm SITTING
-my hands are swollen. my feet are swollen.
-I cannot breathe. Really...catching a breath is impossible.
-I am stiff if I sit for too long.
-heartburn
-my skin/belly feels so stretched and tight and 15 pounds between my legs.
-my legs hurt after walking for ohhhhh....3 minutes.
-insomnia

I want this to be over.

Tweedie gets here in 19 days. I can't believe we waited and waited and I cried at the airport so much in February.

I am so excited and I can't wait to use his body as my pillow. mmmmmm...
