So, some fun changes over the past few days.. I have begun swelling.. yeahhhhhh... I've had to remove my ring, which makes me basically feel naked, and my feet are swelling. I emailed my Dr (yes, emailed. Isn't she awesome!) and told her about the swelling & about my blood pressure being up. I'm normally 110/70 and at the dentist Monday I was 140ish/90ish. For me that is a rather large jump. I was also having painful contractions this past weekend that got worse when I was standing. All-in-all, not good. I'm blaming the contractions on exercise. I took my dog for a walk, which I haven't been doing since we moved from the city. He has miles to run & rabbits to chase, so a walk isn't necessary. It was his birthday so I took him to the pond & threw sticks in the water for about a half hour or so. Which apparently my preg body wasn't used to... I ended up spending the rest of the day on the couch, timing contractions.
Well good news. I'm 26 weeks today. Hopefully everything will be ok & he will stay where he is for awhile.
Update on the Wishpot thing. I'm really liking it thus far. I have yet to hear anything from people using my regester yet. I really like that you can use items from ANY online store, from Wal-Mart to tiny WAHM shops (you can even use it on ETSY!) The only issue I have thus far is that it takes SOOOO LONG to load the "add to my wishpot" pop-up. Other than that I'm really liking it. I suggest anyone with a internet shop to add a link to wishpot so you can have a "registry" with out having to have an actual registry. I also think every Bride or Mom-to-be should have a wishpot, especially us net happy ones.
It also has some other great features other than just registries. You can also make shopping and gift lists. Like that oh-so-fun Christmas list. You can make lists private, wishpot friend only or open to everyone. The coolest feature to me is that it has a Facebook app for your profile, in other words... all my facebook friends can see my wishpot registry from my profile!
Cool huh?
