1- I only got my driver’s license when I was 26 years old . I was terrified of driving. One day I said enough and now I can’t imagine how to live without being able to drive
2- When I was a child I suffer of night terror and anxiety… it was terrible, I had the most terrible nightmares . I still remember them today. I had to take some medication and thank got I grew out of it
3- My husband hates that about me: I don’t close the bathroom door when I go pee at home… I know, it is bad, but I always forget it. He says one day I will forget when I have visitors at home…
4- I wear granny panties (even before pregnancy). Oh well, they are not granny panties, more like the Brazilian bikini cut (yes, I still import underwear, mom sends it to me in the regular basis) but I don’t wear thongs , cant stand it. VPL were never too big of a issue in Brazil
5- When I was in high school I dated 2 brothers. Not at the same time… one right after the other LOL
6- Don t invite me for anything Thursday night at 9 pm. That is ER night I a never miss an episode. I’ve been watching ER since the first season, I was in high school. I love it… if my baby was a boy I would have named him LUKA , after my favorite doctor .

On the pregnancy front things are going okay. I am almost 27 weeks ! I’ve been a little worried about the baby’s movement. Since Friday I’ve noticed that she is moving much less than last week. I try not to worry too much, but I can’t help it. Saturday I was really concerned and called the emergency number from my clinic. The doc advised me to drink coke and do kick counts. She said they don’t start counting until 30 weeks, so I should not worry about the “10 movement per hour rule” just to see if she moves at all. For the first 30 min, for my terror, she stood still. I was crying already, I poked her and nothing. I decided that it was enough that was going to go to the hospital. As I stood up and started getting dressed she woke up, jumping , kicking .. Thank God. She is still not that active, I think she moved from being in a breached position (where I could feel her much more) to being side ways and she is maybe kicking my placenta like last time. Today, I was still worried and I called my nurse. I know I am paranoiac, but I feel that I should trust my instincts and there is no reason to be suffering if I could be reassured . The nurse told me to come over just to hear her heart beat. I left work and made it there just on time before the clinic closed. As soon as get into the room to be checked and the nurse asked me what was going on and I complained about less movement , this baby girl decided to show off and started kicking hard and turning… The nurse looked at me as if I am just crazy. She almost had an attitude and gave me the eye of shame…. The heart rate was fine (thank God) . I am still worried about the movements , I wish that she moved more. I read everywhere women talking how they wake up in the middle of the night with the baby kicking , how they can see their belly moving… I just get so nervous because her movements are still so suttle. I feel silly of complaining about these things. I am just having a hard time managing my worries.
It is such a helpless feeling.

Here it’s me practicing with my friend's baby girl. She is so tiny and adorable, only 32 days old. She loved sleeping on my belly. I can't wait to meet my baby girl.
