Reality check/Panic attack ;-)

Today I caught up to my New Year's resolution to blog at least 4 times a month by doing some retroactive blogging.  Yep, I can do that, it's my blog.  So go back to February and March and find a few posts that you might have missed.  ;-)

I've been working on some research to complete a case report to satisfy the last of many requirements for a certificate of achievement in pelvic floor physical therapy (CAPP) from the American Physical Therapy Association.  I started in January and I'm still working on it little by little in my "spare time" after working ~35 hours a week, almost 30 weeks pregnant and being the primary care taker for a toddler.  I just logged onto the APTA's website again this past week only to find out that they significantly changed the formatting and requirements for the case study, aaaahhhh!!!  Changing the rules mid-game with no warning, okay deep breaths.

This week, my coworkers announced that they would be throwing me a little shower in a couple of weeks, which is so sweet especially since this is my second child.  So, this morning I made a registry on Babies R Us and nearly had a panic attack!  All of a sudden it was all so real...the recovery process, the sore breasts, the sleepless nights and starting ALL OVER AGAIN!  Oh, but then there's all the amazing stuff...the overwhelming love, the holding and snuggling, the soft squishy baby.  Okay, more deep breaths!

I'm a very lucky woman.  This I know for sure.  I just started a glass of alcohol-free wine to relax, ha!...let me add a belly picture.
