So I'm officially in the third trimester this coming week.... wow!!!
Things are continuing to go well since my last post about 5 weeks ago--- yeah, so I'm not real good at keeping up with this.
I'm getting LARGE.... honestly, thats the biggest change in the last month.... I've gained a total of 24 pounds so far this pregnancy, and I'm sure theres plenty more to come in the next 13 weeks. I'm still feeling good, but starting to have difficulty getting comfortable and falling asleep at nite. I notice I get out of breath SOOO easily- like doing one flight of stairs!! And, I had two bloody noses yesterday- which I just found out is due to increased blood flow in pregnancy so it is related and not just a fluke thing. He is moving CONSTANTLY and my favorite thing to do is lay down and pull up my shirt to see my belly bouncing and shaking all over-
I have to go in to the doctors this week for my second one hour glucose test. Hopefully, I'll pass this one as I did the one a few months back and then I'm pretty done with pregnant blood work!! (Yeah, that is until the dreaded IV on the day of delivery---- I HATE IV's!!)... But when I had to go and get the D and C done for the miscarriage in December, I remember the nurse telling me that they always use litocaine for IV's at Edward Hospital so that numbs to area of the IV... So I guess it could be worse.....
EJ and I purchased a crib last nite and it should be delivered in a few weeks. I have some paint color samples that we need to decide on and then we'll be making progress on the baby's room- which is pretty empty now that Paige and Faith have combined rooms.
Oh, and this kiddo still needs a name..... We've had a girl name picked out since our last pregnancy- but man, we cannot agree on a boy name to save our lives!! We have two top names, and about three others that we both like, but nothing thats 100 percent stuck yet!!! This little guy will have a name within the next 3 months- thats a guarantee!! :-)
