Getting Pregnant Game

And finally a bit of relaxation!

The second quarter ended a couple of weeks and I must say that to be a woman seven months pregnant, "I am enjoying the pretty! Finally a little 'relaxation of mind ... I needed.
These three months have marked a turning point in my pregnancy: the transition from fear to serenity. Sure, a little 'stress is always there, but after all ... the creation of a new life is not something from nothing!

L ' amniocentesis marked the beginning of the second quarter. Examines not funny which is followed, instead of total rest for a couple of days come tutti raccomandano, una mattinata in giro per l’ospedale per avere la puntura che ti fa diventare il sangue positivo! Si, perchè il mio fattore RH è negativo e questo potrebbe danneggiare il feto, quindi mi devo fare questa puntura tutte le volte che ho un sanguinamento o un piccolo intervento e poi una alla ventottesima settimana che mi copre per il parto.
L’ecografia dettagliata che ha preceduto l’esame è stata indimenticabile, quasi scioccante: per la prima volta ho visto il suo viso in 3D, i suoi piedini perfetti, già con le dita, le sue braccia, tutto. Un essere umano completo, perfetto, nella mia pancia. Li, in quel momento, ho pregato Dio che fosse normale, perché un aborto dopo quelle immagini would have been impossible to deal with.

But that August 26 was also the day when we found out the sex a girl! Not that we preferences, but know for sure you can start to dream, plan, buy! Scott has already planned his whole future ... I speak of "college" and "what do we do if he wants to marry someone we do not like," and when he wants to go out alone? "! Yes, stuff like that. I come to the dressing room furnishing, delivery, next summer in Italy and volendomi just push away, kindergarten!
And then there was the carousel of names. In fact we already the favorite names, especially for women: SOFIA (or Sophia) topped the list, followed closely by Chanel but not convinced by the fact that, well ... CHANEL ... you must be a model since birth! It 'difficult to choose a name for someone who does not yet exist physically. And then, still do not feel it moving, my belly was not that of a pregnant woman .. well, do not you imagine!

The result came on Friday of next week, ahead of our expectations. I remember the moment perfectly: Scott and I were on the bed chatting when ... DRIN! I recognize the number on my phone but I do not have the strength to answer and I talk about him. I was paralyzed from the stress! Not even 10 seconds and I see him smile, then attacked me and said, "Did you see .. all right. " I let myself go into a liberating tears in the arms of my husband who gently told me: "... we must relax and this child will be beautiful." The fact was that my placenta previa, that is very low, did not bother me one bit '. I felt good.

And then there was the ' Italy. Well .. explain such a thing as "failure", the nostalgia of your life is not easy. After all the struggles to get a green card every month and remain dedicated to pregnant, I had it done. It was time to go a little 'home, to reconnect with my world, see my loved ones and especially to share with them the joy of my pregnancy! The morning of my departure I had control of the placenta. I smiled a bit 'nervous at the thought that put me totally at rest and think, "yeah, sleep is ok, after a pleasant trip in calm air. Because I ANDRO 'IN ITALY! ". I was quite good, I have only said no sex (but with all the care and intervention, we did not madness) and the rest "take it easy"! Certoooo .... Very easy ... in Italiaaaa!

20 settembre- 20 ottobre 2010. Il mio quinto mese di gravidanza l’ho passato a farmi coccolare dalla mia famiglia e dai miei amici. E’ stato bellissimo. Scott mi ha raggiunta per 2 settimane. Siamo stati divinamente e…la mia pancia è esplosa! Non so ancora quanto fosse Sofia che cresceva e quando fossero invece le delizie italiane che ho ingurgitato quotidianamente e che mi erano mancate così tanto!! Fatto sta che al mio ritorno la bilancia mi ha guardato malissimo!!


Le ultime settimane del secondo trimestre sono passate tranquillamente, anche perché al controllo placenta tutto è andato per il meglio e la dottoressa alla fine della visita mi ha detto “you are a free woman! Non fare i salti mortali ma puoi riprendere una vita normale perché la placenta è risalita e si è posizionata bene”. Io e Scott ci stiamo dedicando all’arredo della camerina… cioè, io compro e lui monta! Nooo scherzo… è bravissimo. Lo adoro perché è partecipe in tutto. Ora la nostra Sofi si muove tanto e lui le parla avvicinandosi alla pancia, a volte gioca con lei muovendomi piano piano la pancia, è sempre presente...e a me continua a dire che sono bellissima, anche se adesso sono più larga che lunga!!

Women, du du du





Talking with women

Too many males approach to women swinging between extremes. Or love or despise. They want to dominate or be dominated, as they do a lot more difficult to pose in front of them in equal conditions.

is typical of the weak and complexed deify the unattainable and humiliating available. It happens to everybody, adolescence. The trouble is when it continues to happen next.

For most people keep on talking to women, but almost never with women. For this reason, know that bad. Why not listen. Eppure basterebbe poco. Leggere i libri scritti dalle donne: lì si impara tantissimo. E sfogliare qualche posta del cuore, che invece tanti maschi snobbano con un’alzata di spalle.

Entrare nell’animo femminile, individuando i meccanismi che lo guidano, è un viaggio affascinante che rende più completa la vita di chiunque abbia il coraggio e l’umiltà di compierlo. Si impara a considerare le donne per quel che sono: non creature da venerare o giocattoli da usare. Ma esseri umani come noi, solo più complessi di noi, perché oltre al meccanismo razionale del vivere sviluppano fin dall’infanzia quello intuitivo, che non si nutre di parole e schemi prefissati, ma di energie e suggestions.

There is more attractive for a male universe, knowing that only women can go to discover its hidden part, and so complete and evolve. For millennia, the macho culture opposed to the comparison with a wall of clichés imposed through force. But now that wall is crumbling, and some men grow at last the desire to know the women, which until yesterday were afraid.

He meets one too. Provided you do not feel neither a victim nor un'incompresa.

Pay My Aetna Bill Online

The Little treats for film buffs

Paolo Sorrentino , attualmente impegnato nella lavorazione di This must be the place con l'attore americano Sean Penn , è senz'altro uno dei registi italiani più apprezzati all'estero. Poetico e particolarmente attento ad un'estetica che rasenta la perfezione, ho sempre creduto sin da quel suo Uomo in più che Sorrentino si distacchi di molto dal modo di fare cinema italiano dei nostri tempi. Il suo ultimo lavoro, Il divo , è stato definito da Variety un "capolavoro" (Jay Weissberg, 22/5/2008).

In a nice cameo granted Boris (Series III, episode # 12) - Italian comedy television series - was a hilarious gag in which Sorrentino (actor if 'itself) was trading for Garrone, author of Gomorrah. How to prove an embarrassing ignorance film ironically, behind the scenes of the TV.



last Thursday to Annozero something happened like that, but with the Minister for Arts and Culture . Maybe it was just a misunderstanding on how television and times, but the effect and matching is truly remarkable.

Penthouse Free Letter

Green Grub

I got up early, before the bells ringing, because I knew it was there and wanted to get there before the crowd.
I've done it.
Here it is: the lawn.








What impression along the cable. Yet it is grass, grass easy, but to me it really seemed to walk "sull'ova. I
walker far and wide across the Piazza del Duomo, which was not doing this for years because that is the undisputed territory of tourists and Florentines we just pass you if you must, between an elbow smadonnando and another, and appearing in an incredible amount of photos that depict us in every corner of the planet.
A really great consolation.
Behind the Baptistery, there is also a post:









is the twin of the column next to it. It is said that during the funeral of Zenobi, beloved bishop of Florence (fifth century AD.), Then made a saint, the coffin has hit a dead tree standing near the Baptistery and this has put back the leaves. To commemorate the event was erected where there was a column the tree (I hope once dried up permanently) and today we have a new post, too.
Then there's David. Well, not HIM a copy.













Made of plastic, but same size. In this regard there will be a conference on the future of art in plastic. Yes, because the plastic after a few decades we start to crumble and is then irretrievably lost a fortune. But if the artist uses plastic has probably come to terms with its perishable essence, has taken into account the fact that not long remain in the collective memory, at least the tactile, physical. So his business, no?
You do not like plastic, he had understood.
So today there is a lawn around the Duomo.
We're not thinking about how much it cost and how those could have been used otherwise €.
Let's enjoy the countryside.
