Worrisome Wednesday.

So today was the first really hectic day in my pregnancy. I've been making a lot of calls around to different insurance companies, trying to figure out what I'm going to do about insuring Simone when she's born. At first the Social Services Office told me that she would be covered under my insurance for the first 30 days, but then I found out from my insurance company that since I'm a dependent on my family's health plan that Simone wouldn't be covered by my insurance. Argh! So I called them back asking how much it would be to get her covered by them, and they said they couldn't cover her until she was three months old. SCREWY! Then on top of that I have to worry about the money for the child birthing classes since my doctor told me it was a near necessity to enroll in those. It's just insane right now. I knew that this was going to be really crazy and a lot of responsibility, but I guess I just had no idea how much responsibility it was. It's so strange to think that just seven months ago my biggest concern was what color shoes I wanted to go with what shirt, or making it to work on time. Oh yeah, and on top of the money issue, being unemployed and six months pregnant really freaking sucks. It just makes money matters EVEN WORSE, especially since it's so darn difficult to even get people to consider me as a future employee once they see my monstrous belly. I guess I just need to take a deep breath and calm down. Easier said than done!

Getting Antsy!

So I'm nearly 6 months pregnant now and I'm starting to get antsy. I haven't really ballooned yet, but I've definitely blossomed! My belly doesn't fit into half of my pre-pregnancy shirts anymore, and when I so much as think about squeezing into my pre-pregnancy shorts and jeans, my thighs scream at me! Well I guess these are all just the joys of pregnancy, right? What is really getting to me is the waiting. I feel like it's been so long already of having this little girl inside of me, and I just want to meet her already! Let's be real here though, I can definitely wait until August so that she comes out fully cooked, but I am just anxious to see her little face and hold her in my arms for the first time. It's so surreal to feel her wiggle around in there. It's days like these, too, when she's super active in the afternoon that make me wonder what it's going to be like a few months from now. Afternoons filled with screaming, crying, and pooping. Ah, what I have to look forward to, haha!
