3rd Trimester is here. Commence freakout.
How far along? 27 weeks
Weight gain/loss: 130 lbs. Down 1 lb. from last week? This up and down is crazy. Up 12 total.
Feeling: Generally okay, except for fatigue. I am fighting to stay awake some afternoons when Carina refuses to nap.
Maternity clothes? I am in love with all of my maternity dresses and skirts. Summer clothes are just SO much more comfy than constricting pants and sweaters.
Sleep: I'm having trouble falling asleep, and staying asleep. I've been waking around 5 AM some mornings and for the life of me can't go back to sleep.
Food cravings: Tomato, mozzarella, and basil salad. And I had one for dinner yesterday and it was divine.
Movement? Little girl is certainly enjoying somersaulting these days!
What I miss? Rum & coke. And Bailey's. And wine. And uggh...
Best moment this week: Getting Mike his belated Father's Day present - a grill. He has wanted one for years but we were never allowed to have one in our previous apartment buildings. I saved up for months to get him the fancy one he wanted. I haven't had to cook since we bought it on Saturday afternoon. I call this a win-win ;)
Our newest family member! |
What I'm looking forward to: Heading down to Philly again this weekend for my friend's wedding! I am so excited to see my friends from college; many of them I haven't seen since my own wedding back in 2009. It's been way too long.
Next Appointment: next OB appointment on July 11th at 29.5 weeks. My gestational diabetes screen is Wednesday ::gulp::
Milestones: Baby is about 2 lbs. now! I think hitting 3rd Tri is a pretty awesome milestone, too.
P.S. How many of you post weekly pregnancy updates on your blog, too? I'm wondering if a once-a-month (or so) linky might be a fun idea. I love seeing your bump pics, reading what names you've chosen, etc. Please comment and let me know if you would participate!
