Ok. So, I'm pregnant and it's freaking me out.
I look at my abdomen, poke it and think, "Holy shit! There is SOMEBODY in there!"
I'm walking down a flight of stairs and worry about falling down because that could knock my little human loose.
Husband uses some medication that pregnant women aren't even supposed to touch so I stay farther than an arm's length away from him after he uses it.
If I'm driving in the car and smell cigarette smoke from someone outside I take a big breath and hold it as long as I can, hoping that it will be gone by the time I need oxygen again.
If I roll over violently I worry that I'm disturbing my hitchhiker.
I take lukewarm showers instead of the boiling hot baths I love so I don't nuke the baby.
I'm normally a mean-ass, rather hateful person who tries to injure people with my thoughtbeams and I'm trying to tamp that back because I don't want my black thoughtbeams to freak out the baby. On the other hand, when I can't hold back mean thoughts, I tell myself that it's toughening the baby up. Maybe I should cover my belly in tinfoil to shield it from my thoughtbeams.
I'm going to go batshit crazy before giving birth.

First pregnancy was all guilt and shame for me. Number two I felt like Mother Earth and all that shit, I went through labor and delivery with no drugs, no pain and 3 pushes. Easy. Number 3 had me paranoid as fuck, worrying about every little thing, paranoid about my health, the baby's health, and at the same time feeling a lot like those poor people in Alien.
So... don't feel crazy... it's alllll part of the game. Pregnant ladies are strange and the entire world loves a pregnant chick. Seriously - that's why they still rock the tables at Hooters. ;)
