Day 7 (Friday)

A quivering uterus (at least for me, last night) = incredible gas build up.

I know this because I've deflated multiple times over the past few hours, and no more quivers. I feel so much better for it. My stomach is growing smaller as a result, which makes it easier to walk.

But just in case you were curious, here are a couple definitions of 'quivering uterus' courtesy the Urban Dictionary:

• The painful cramping during the menstrual cycle (Context example - "I can't got out tonight I've got the quivering uterus, it sucks!")


• A medical condition experienced by quiverfull* women after having between 6 and 18 children (Context example - "I'm surprised Michelle Duggar's quivering uterus hasn't burst yet.") 

On a completely different note, I'm expecting my second visitor momentarily! Very exciting. Ciao for now.

* quiverfull = a branch of Evangelical Christians who take the Bible literally and believe that one of the most important of God's commands is to "be fruitful and multiply."
