* An apron is a good idea when cooking because the belly seems to touch every messy, wet, gross thing in the kitchen. I figured this out after opening the first (of six) 2lb thawed package of ground beef.
* Let some of that perfectionistic thinking go by the wayside. This is especially true in summer because the number of tasks I would normally 'just do' without thinking about the heat and a less mobile body is an infinitely larger number than in the winter! (This is my first time being pregnant through the whole summer.)
* The 'medicine' in Aspercreme (non-smelly equivalent to Ben-Gay) really does loose it's potency after the due date. Learned this after waking up at night to a charlie horse, applying my remedy, and finding no relief forthcoming!
That's it for today. I just want to remember...no idea if it will be of use to me in the future.

Please take it easy, Susie. I had my third in August and my fourth in February and I can attest to the fact that the last month in the summer is a lot harder than in the winter. Make sure you sit with your feet up for several hours a day. And keep drinking!
