Large Gumme Bear


2nd ultra sound: much larger - one inch or according to our nurse, the size of a large gumme bear. little flipper arms and legs and a giant head with no neck. very active. moving it's little flipper arms and legs around like crazy. Oy. Can't tell what flavor it is.

I've been known as kind of a spaz and Seth tends to be rather fast moving too. I fear this child may never sleep. Can't imagine a being combined from the two of us. Seth speaks at the speed of light and I'm always bouncing from point A to B. Take meals for example, we can consume a beautiful 3 course meal complete with bottle of wine (before the gumme bear) in less than 20 minutes. I've caught myself watching us eat while out and about and have been startled by what I've seen. So we consciously try to eat our meals more slowly but it's an uphill battle.

Seth is very excited about the bambino/a. I am trying to understanding how something like this can be growing inside of me. Certainly explains the extreme nausea and exhaustion. There is a separate universe inside of me yet still part of me. Suppose I should start tuning in.
