3rd Trimester.

So it is official I am now 28 weeks along. 3rd trimester.

Everyone says home stretch but honestly it doesn't feel that close yet. We don't really have any baby stuff yet just a few clothes I feel like if it were close well we would be prepared. But then how prepared are you when you are going to have a baby? I am pretty sure all the books in the world can't really convey what that is like.

So new for us...not to much. Our doc said that we are not growing a runt :) I guess that is good? It didn't sound as good when I thought about labor but then when I think about how coordinated I can be it sounded like the bigger probably meant more sturdy. Other than that...I failed my first glucose test so they did a second we await the results hopefully good. I do have a nice bruise from all the blood drawing now but that should go away soon.

I sleep less then ever mostly because comfort is harder and harder. Jason has been sooo nice as to make me a pillow recliner in our bed so I am more comfortable. I have a hip that likes to pop in and out so laying on it hurts and not laying on it makes it pop. So I now have a lovely recliner in bed. I have also learned that videos of birth just scare you. I don't feel more prepared from it just more sure I don't want a mirror. Other than that the class has been good, lots of cool things to learn mostly tid bits and tricks but some have really been helpful. Nothing earth shattering but I think in the end I am glad we did it.

Other than that we are pretty much the same, it is hot here. Very hot but our apartment is a fridge so not to much issue there I have a blanket most of the time. Oh and according to the work ladies I am now nice and round....but I still have a belly button so? Oh yes and since you asked here is a pic. Also a few pics from my baby shower with my cousins...it was wonderful and way fun.
