28 Weeks

……the third trimester has started and the evil pregnant woman in me has emerged!  I am so -OVER- being pregnant, but I am trying to soak in the moments of this pregnancy, because I know I will regret it later.  Plus it's much easier to take care of a baby pre-delivery rather than post delivery, especially with two other kids already here.

This little girl is active all day and early in the morning.  I have lost most of my cravings, just whatever sounds good {my diet of buffalo chicken and bleu cheese is over}

My doctor's appointment went ok…my BP was 146/90.  The doc said she just wants me to get to full term…if they were to induce me at 38 weeks, that would be July 6th.  She told me to start doing things slower and to not push too hard exercising.  MY glucose screening went good  and baby's heart beat was 134.

Negative Nancy: {Brace yourself} I officially have to spread my legs as wide as they can go to bend over and put my shoes on.   I have to "assume the position" (which is stand and cross my legs) when I sneeze.  I don't sleep well at night.  My back hurts, I get contractions when I do too much, I have to pee in the middle of the night and I sound asthmatic when I climb stairs.  

Positive Polly: We are in the home stretch only 10-12 weeks left! 

Waistline:  starting to fee like a cow, I am in maternity clothes now.  She sits really low in me and it's uncomfortable to wear regular jeans and some shirts don't cover my lower belly.  

Cravings: I crave pepsi…but I know better than to drink it all the time.  

What I miss: I miss feeling comfortable and having energy

What I am looking foreword to: the birth day

Ryan: He is currently going with the flow, trying to keep me happy.  Working hard to find us a new vehicle.  

Riley and Tate- Riley likes to feel the baby kick and pick out girl clothes.  Tate uses my belly as a drum
