7 Crazy Things That Happened While Pregnant

Today my cousin Bridget is running the Baltimore Marathon...she is sending out updates as to what mile marker she's at...so it is almost as if we are running with her (but we aren't all sweaty and icky).

Last week was the Chicago Marathon...there was a woman who ran who was, I believe, 37 weeks pregnant. Right after completing the marathon, she gave birth. I give her credit for inducing her labor - I'm 7 days away and running a marathon to get the Nugget to make it's grand entrance is not on my to do list.

Luckily, my pregnancy has been pretty good (knock on wood). I'm still able to bend over and tie my shoes, AND I can still see my toes. I've done some pretty crazy things while pregnant and maintained some sanity but to run a marathon 37 weeks pregnant? I ran the Shamrock Shuffle (an 8k) when I was about 13 weeks...but I took it easy.

Some other things I did during this pregnancy include:

1. Studying for the CFP (I've taken 5 of 6 classes and have averaged a B+)
2. Started a new job
3. Moved my stuff out of the apartment so Erik could move in
4. Got engaged
5. Planned a wedding
6. Got married
7. Eventually had a baby

Now, after looking back at these activities I can understand why the Nugget doesn't want to come out...it's too crazy and there is a lot of stuff going on. Needless to say, I'm looking forward to "relaxing" once the Nugget is in my arms, safe and sound.
