Hello 3rd Trimester! I can not believe it! 12 weeks or less.....well, maybe 11ish (since I am scheduling a c-section). I am so excited to meet our new baby! I feel like there is so much to do still. I can not decide on a name. I guess we are just going to wait till after he is born to figure that one out. I KNOW that is fine, but I am a planner and like to have it all done and planned. We still need to finish his room....it's almost done. We still need to get some of the essentials. I keep saying we have time, but goodness it's going fast now!!
I am feeling pretty good. A little achy on occasion. My back....OUCH! My ankles are starting to swell a little. Sleeping is becoming harder and harder. I wish I could just fall asleep at 8 and sleep till the boys wake up. Nope...I go to bed at like 11 or so then up at 1-2 and just can not fall back asleep. I just try and rest during the day as much as I can (but, with 2 kids home for the summer it's a little hard). Anyways, enough of my complaining!! I
STILL can not wait to meet this little guy!!
Here is a little what's going on with baby....
Your baby is settling into the proper position for birth, with his head
facing downward (toward your body's nearest exit!). Your little work in
progress is now about 2.5 pounds and almost 16 inches long. He's busy
adding new skills such as blinking to an already impressive repertoire
of tricks like coughing, sucking, hiccuping, and taking practice
breaths. Your baby's sleep now includes the REM (rapid eye movement)
phase — and that means he could be dreaming already (what do you suppose
he's dreaming about?).
Here are some photos taken by P.S. Photography. She is doing my pregnancy progression shoots. I love these photos!
