For the past few weeks, I’ve been in a strange state. Despite my baby moving inside me and my body getting generally bigger, I often forgot I was pregnant.
I put on hold any birthing research and have only lightly considered shopping for baby clothes, toys and gear. Yes, I’ve been making very conscious food choices, exercising, and paying attention to environmental hazards, but the rest of my world is just the same as it ever was. Actually better: I’ve been feeling super healthy and reasonably energetic (the heat on Sunday morning made my walk difficult, but it did the same for Chris). This must be one of those passing things, change now is undeniably constant. And I want to be un-dumb about it.
So, here, Alisa to Change:
Hi.
I apologize if I hadn’t paid you much attention, though you probably don’t care. I just wanted to say: I know you are here (there and everywhere). I’ll just sit down for this and maybe you won’t knock me off my feet.
Best,
Alisa
