My body is confused. Terribly confused. I have slight twinges and cramps, like my uterus is stretching. My breasts are sore. I have small bouts of nausea. My belly seems bigger. I gained four pounds this week. Is that even possible?
The worst part of it all is that I want to nest. I want to clean things up and organize. I want to sort out the office and our spare room – the room that would have been the nursery. I have this urge to get the house in order and prepare. Prepare for what? There is no baby coming on February 1st.
Despite what my body thinks, I’m not pregnant. Despite what my mind thinks, there is no baby to nest for.
Instead I try to put my head down and ignore all these things. And hope that when February 2nd comes around, these feelings will fade.
