Fat belly, some digging, and DRINKING!

Buggzter Mar 24, 2007 09:20 AM

Well, the pic is of Dawn's gravid belly (I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO exited!)... She had been doing a LITTLE bit of digging every few days since she first got her colors 2 weeks ago today (wow - only 2 weeks!), but she's skipping all over the cage to different spots. Today her belly is bigger (tho not by too much), yet she's nowhere near as bulgy as many others I've seen in pics... I'm just giddy for when they get here!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

PLUS today she was drinking like she hadn't had anything to drink in weeks! Is this a hint by her? No other strange things except she opened her mouth for the FIRST TIME EVER to threaten the camera - it was early morning and she didn't like the flashes... Too bad I didn't get a pic of that! lol!

I'm so excited I don't know what to do with myself! And since I just started a new job I can't just call off and stay home to brood while waiting for her to lay! I'd LIKE to, but can't . Oh well. It'll happen when it happens...

Wish me luck... it's almost as bad as when I was waiting to get my own kid out of me! loL!

I wish you well, and the best thing I can recommend, having just been through it all with one, and still waiting on another two, is to get yourself some acrylic nail extension (difficult to chew), and a big bottle of wine, you'll be glad you bought it when the eggs are in the incubator and you can sit back
