Pregnancy symptoms

Kasia, I remember them mentioning ab separation in one of my prenatal workout videos but I haven't experienced it. Here's what they say about it on the What to Expect When You're Expecting website:

Megan, I really haven't had issues with swelling except for one night that was really hot and humid and we went for a walk and my hands and feet felt swollen. I'm really diligent about trying to drink 6-8 glasses of fluids a day though, which is supposed to combat swelling.

I just started (actually I'm about halfway through because it's a quick read and really interesting) "Green Babies, Sage Moms" which is about choosing chemical-free and organic options for your baby. If you're interested in being "green" I would highly recommend it.

As of tomorrow I have 7 weeks to go until my due date which is starting to freak me out! A lot of our friends have had their first babies 4-6 weeks early so I'm going to pack my hospital bag this weekend just in case!!

OH MY GOD!! I can't believe you have less than 2 months to go!!! That is insane!! There's a good chance that you will deliver before I get a chance to say hi next month! How incredibly exciting!!
