Under Pressure

Maybe I'm getting old. Up until about a month ago this pregnancy was a breeze. Nothing to report, and smooth sailing. Until, I started to feel the pressure. A new pressure I have never experienced with a pregnancy before, that intensifies as the hours pass through the day. By evening I am waddling around, and using my arms to bear all of my weight moving into or out of a sitting/crouched position or going up stairs. Even the movement to cross my legs is difficult.

So I'm nervous, as the pressure is right underneath me. I'm beginning to think that as Faith grows that pressure will really begin to pay its dues. The extra arm support is something an 8 month prego mom does, not a 5 monther.

(This could get embarassing.)
