And it's hit me

Real bad! Swelling that is. This must be the one joyful symptom of pregnancy one can receive. Not so likely! For me I noticed it in my right foot pretty bad. I called the nurse this morning to see if it's normal to have swelling I'm one foot and not the other. She said unfortunately it is. But I have to watch for swelling in the face and hands, that's when there could be a problem of preeclampsia. Let's hope I don't develop that. She also said to try to keep my legs and feet elevated most of the day. Yeah right, like that's going to happen with a 10 month old getting into everything. I'll try as much as I can though. I'm looking forward to my 36 week appt on Monday morning!

It's so cold here. I want to take Xander out, but it's only in the teens and even though I'd bundle him up and he'd thoroughly enjoy the time out, it's cold for me! Maybe we'll go on the patio for a minute or two this afternoon if the sun warms things up a bit more. Hubby likes to remind me of where I'm from...MN...when I'm complaining about the cold.

I'm supposed to go to my friends house to catch up, but lately I haven't felt like leaving the house. It's getting uncomfortable carrying Xander up and down all our apartment stairs. I haven't even gone to the post office. I beg hubby to go, and he'll usually go once a week. That's fine, it allows me to stay comfortable. I do manage to make my way to the store, but I go on the weekends so I don't have to carry Xander. Which leaves me to feeling bad for Xander not getting out and getting the fresh air he so desperately loves. How I can't wait for the temperature to reach the 50s! Soon.

Have a great day!
