Just for kicks, I took my measurements today. Keep in mind my due date was yesterday. Do I enjoy torturing myself? I must.Keeping track of my body stats is a slight compulsion of mine and I've been logging them on a spreadsheet for about 6 years. The last time I took my measurements was 3 days after I got pregnant so it's interesting to see how my body has changed this past 9 months. It's absolutely unreal how many inches this body has put on. One can only hope it's mainly water!
Since I don't plan to be pregnant ever again and currently weigh more than I have ever (or ever will again), it's interesting to see how "big" my body really is with all this baby & water weight. My feet alone, measured around the middle are 10"! My ankles are also measuring 10" around!
You want to see something funny? I swore I wouldn't share this but what the heck. It's hilarious! Can the real ankle please stand up?
I can't wait to see my real ankles again, lol! (and my real waist, and belly, and knees, and neck, and....)
For a month or two after you deliver, you won't even believe how fast you'll shed that water. You'll pee a LOT, plus you'll have a period too (stock up on nighttime absorbency pads, you'll need em!).
ReplyDeleteSending you easy delivery vibes and I can't wait for the "it's a baby!" post!!!
You're awesome! The end is near. Can't wait to see the beautiful little angel you grew and nurtured in your tummy over the last 9 months.
ReplyDeleteThe marathon is almost over! Good job.
ReplyDeleteOh Amy, its true the body does bounce back. I have been thinking of you like crazy. Sending you good vibes for Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteI think you have the cutest toes... Love you! Please text when that sweet baby gets here!! - Sues
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you also. I want you to feel better. I know that you are going to shed pounds fast. You start running right after you have the baby.
