Pregnancy is a magical time! There are many changes taking place physically, mentally, and emotionally. People often ask me how I'm feeling, but I've seldom been asked what I'm thinking. In case you were wondering, here are some of my most common pregnant thoughts!

1. There is an actual human growing inside of me!

2. What a miracle!

3. It’s also kind of weird.

4. Miraculous, but definitely weird.

5. I think I have to pee.

6. Hmm, what should I eat for breakfast?

7. Can’t eat that, I get heartburn.

8. Can’t eat that, it makes me nauseous.

9. Can’t drink that, no caffeine.

10. Ugh.

11. I just felt her kick!

12. Wow, she’s super strong.

13. Can she kick anything important in there?

14. How close is she to my vital organs?

15. Is she near my kidneys?

16. Where even are my kidneys?

17. Please let this child be smarter than me.

18. I wonder what she will look like…

19. I hope she isn’t ugly.

20. That’s awful, I shouldn’t think that.

21. All babies are beautiful!

22. Well, not ALL babies…

23. Continues to hope future baby is not ugly.

24. Do I actually have to pee or is it just the baby pushing on my bladder?

25. I’m going to pee just to be safe.

26. My stomach looks so funny.

27. My belly button is all distorted!

28. That goes back, right?

29. RIGHT?!

30. How much of this is the baby and how much is just me getting fat?

31. I should probably stop eating so much ice cream.

32. Oh my god, ice cream.

33. Ice cream sounds wonderful right now.

34. I’m going to eat some ice cream.

35. I have to pee again.

36. Time to get dressed!

37. Let’s see what still fits…

38. Ooh, this shirt really shows off my baby belly!

39. But then people will want to touch my stomach.

40. I’m going to wear my frumpy sweater instead.

41. I should pee before I leave.

42. Seat-belts and baby bellies do not mix well.

43. Why is getting out of a car so difficult now?

44. Sees child having tantrum.

45. My child is NEVER going to do that.

46. Oh god, my child is totally going to do that.

47. Panic.

48. Let’s go look at baby clothes!

49. After I pee again.

50. Awe, these are so tiny and precious!

51. I can’t believe I’m going to have a little person tiny enough to fit into these.

52. I can’t wait to meet her.

53. I love her so, so, so much.

54. I have next to no idea what I’m doing.

55. But I’m so excited to be her mommy.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
