31 Weeks pregnant
The other night I had the strangest dream and even though strange dreams are to be expected while one is expecting, this dream really disturbed me. I only remember bits and pieces but what I do remember was strange.
A lot of things happen to a woman's body during pregnancy. As I've been writing this blog, I've explained some of those things in great detail. One of the less significant things that usually happens is while the belly is stretching, a once adorable "inny" belly button, now is a gigantic "outty". It just happened one day and to me, it looks like an eye that's bulging out of my stomach, which leads me to my dream...
I dreamt that my belly button stuck so far out of my stomach that it actually started to look like a flower with a long stem. In my dream, I clearly remember being frightened that I would have to walk around with this on my stomach and I also pondered how I would get dressed with this inexplicable bulge where my once cute belly button used to be. Even though it was just a dream, I now find myself looking down in the morning to make sure my belly button hasn't grown anymore than the norm. I still marvel at the way my belly button looks under clothes, particularly the kinds of clothes that highlight my pregnancy. I can't imagine that it will go back to the way it used to look before but from all accounts, it will. Only 8 more weeks to go and I'm counting the days...Can't wait to see what happens next!
