Fun with numbers


# of pounds of weight gain for me this pregnancy so far: 10 (with hopefully another 20-30 to go)

# of days until baby's birth: hopefully not less than 98 (37 weeks) and not more than 121 (July 8th is when my parents go to Poland for a few weeks)

# of minutes, according to google maps, it will take to drive from our new house to Grand River Hospital: 17

# of minutes to find parking at GRH, walk to the entrance, find L&D, and get settled: probably only 10 or so, but will feel like 325 while in active labour

# of people working on my unit who are currently pregnant: 4 that we know of!

# of anatomical locations that baby likes to kick me in: 7 (cervix, diaphragm, spine, and the four abdominal quadrants RLQ, RUQ, LUQ, LLQ)

# of times Josh has felt the baby move so far: 2

# of bruises at the bottoms of my feet due to new orthotics secondary to pelvic pain: 2

# of minutes it takes me to prepare before and after urination at work: 28 (gross estimation), due to taking off fanny pack, disassembling pelvic girdle, untying giant pants, and then repeating the process backwards after urination

# of times Miriam has watched her Pirate Dora movie this week since I'm too tired/sore to play after work: 12

# of times I've vomited in the second trimester: 2 (once after some yummy fish, and once after Miriam vomited in the car while I was driving, but I managed to pull over and open the door before I burst too).

# of times I get up at night: 3-4 (once to put Miriam on the toilet, and 2-3 times for me to pee)

# of times I WAKE up at night, in addition to the above: 1-2 due to baby moving, and once just for fun, because my brain doesn't understand that I need sleep

# of baby hats we have in our collection: 11 (no joke! And that's 9 too many)

# of lists I've made so far in this pregnancy: 1, 001

# of points on one of those lists (baby name finalists): 8 first names (2 for boys, 6 for girls)

# of uses for this list: 0, but it was fun anyway!
