Random Notes of Month 8
It is always funny and somewhat amazing when I see my abdomen move on its own. This YouTube video of twin fetuses moving to the music of Jaws isn’t me, but it’s worth watching and what I feel like sometimes!
Another funny thing that started happening during my 8th month of pregnancy is the shape of my abdomen when I try to sit-up after laying down. (Note the word “try.” I’m not always able to do this.) As I contract my abdominal muscles, my entire belly becomes cone shaped. It looks something like a volcano with my belly button as the crater. It is really quite amusing.
That said, I’m going to hang with some girlfriends this afternoon at Harvard Square. Once this baby comes, it will be a long time before I’m able to do this again, so I need to take advantage of the first weekend of spring.
