So if you have made it to this blog, then you know that I am pregnant! However, even though I know I am pregnant, I don't think I will ever for the life of me know how far along I am. I just don't get it, and trust me, Kyle has tried explaining it 1,000 times. 40 weeks equals 10 months, but you are pregnant for 9 months -- I can't keep track. For instance, today I am supposed to be starting my sixth month, but I am only 22 weeks along. It drives me crazy!!!
I might be able to keep track of the weeks thing on my own, but the combination of the weeks and months is just too much. Because just six months ago I was one of those people not in pregnancy mode, I know how if you haven't had kids yet, then you only want to hear about months, not weeks (and you actually don't really even care about either). I am sensitive to this because one time I asked a woman how far along she was and she said 37 weeks. At this point I was so far away from baby talk (and not into doing math) that I said, "Oh, can you tell the sex yet?" She replied, "Umm, I am three weeks away from delivering and the baby is fully formed, so yes, we can tell the sex."
Let's just hope the baby gets Kyle's reasoning and understanding skills and not mine...
