I'm so happy to say I'm officially in the third trimester. Yesterday I had a checkup which went really well--the baby's heart beat was 155 bpm and I'm measuring at 27". I also had to to the tedious glucose test, but at least this time chugging the orange drink didn't make me nauseated like it did with Ashyr. But once again, they couldn't find a good vein, so I had to be stuck three times. Don't exactly love needles.
Anyway, now that I'm 28 weeks and in the home stretch, I'm starting to feel a decent amount of pressure (and not just the kind of pressure from having a chinese cabbage weighing down on your bladder 24/7--that's how big the baby is this week a chinese cabbage!). There is so much to be done between now and June 21st. You know, remodeling a house (new roof and windows-check, check!), packing, moving, designing websites, changing the nursery (that one isn't necessary, but I've had a hankering to mix things up), working on this blog (!), and plenty of diy projects for this baby girl. Not to mention the need to mentally prepare myself for labor again. I felt like I had all the time in the world when I was pregnant with Ashyr, but now that I have him to watch, things tend to be counterproductive.
All right everyone, have a lovely weekend. I'm looking forward to enjoying this 80 degree weather we are having and spending more quality time with my boys! Grant and I actually got a date in last night which was super fun and much needed. And come back Monday for something "Eastery."
