Piglet Pie's account of her daughter's birth was very encouraging. I bookmarked her eons ago but my trusty pregnant memory forgot about it till now. I'm reading her older entries now for some reassurance.

Without pregnant friends, it can be difficult to go through a pregnancy, particularly a first, alone. Silly things like my tooth cracking for no damned good reason, feeling dizzy in Watson's, unable to find a comfy sleeping position, insomnia, or even people staring at my belly as I waddle past. Few understand that without going through it.

There is a certain glee in figuring out a puzzle or looking at a piece of work completed (and looking aligned) that only the nitpicky like me comprehend. I attained both tonight, meddling with a CMS program for work and finally getting it to do what I want.

Sometimes I wonder if the feeling of unaccomplishment is the cause of my insomnia. Well, in this case, hormones too.

The kids are restless. Tux is staring at me now rather alarmed. It's almost as if they recognise the Whiskers canned food I just bought (Salmon and Chicken, manufactured in Australia) and are just waiting for me to open one... hmm...

Lots of scattered thoughts tonight.

I am glad I finished quite a bit of work, pivotal even. Acknowledging great work, I also wrote a fan letter to the developers of Monster Pets. That game sure is addictive! On impulse I started from scratch again to experiment with some new Monsters. New team: Beavoru, Flamo (my fave), Batula, and Cong (who grows a carrot later as I recall).

Right now I really need some sleep while BB is quietly napping. I have another appointment tomorrow morning to see Dr Y again. BB's been kicking me non-stop and pretty hard too. Oh dang, he just woke up... Everytime I mention it, his Dad beams and says, my strong boy.

Boy's sitting at my feet now, blinking gently at me. Soon he'll have another brother, albeit furless, to love and care for him. :D
