Wednesday

What is the point of going to the actual bathroom to empty my massively full bladder, if, when I get there, the baby is straight up pressing on the line, and preventing that same massively full bladder from emptying? Hmm????????????

I had to move like crazy to get the baby to move off the spot that was clearly kinking the hose or whatever. It was weird. I had to pee so terribly, but I couldn’t get out more than tiny bits at a time at first. And it felt like a two by four was stuck under my belly, preventing me from leaning forward at all while attempting to pee… bizarre stuff, pregnancy.

Haha

P.S. The dentist really helped a lot today. There is still s tiny little piece that is not cool. However, all the other stuff seems like it may have been resolved in the visit today. I will see in the morning how my retainers do – I almost always say “aligners”, but they are technically retainers, because the teeth have already been aligned and just need to be retained, maintained in their corrected placements. But they already went on easier tonight than they have been doing. And flossing was a whole new world tonight. I almost cried with relief (instead of immense stress) while flossing tonight. Much, much better. Thank you, dentist.

Thank you, God, for the dental easing today. Thank you for the love and support of the day, as well as for my accomplishments and my energy to do those. Help make me and the baby and my husband well, please, and keep us all three safe. Help my family always to love one another truly. Be with us, guiding us all always, please. Heal our country. In your name, I pray. Amen.
