We're now 27w1d pregnant. And finally in the third (and last) trimester! Wowzers. Where has the time gone? I feel like we were just celebrating being halfway! I can't believe our baby girl will be here in less than 13 weeks (89 days)! Pretty soon we'll be down to single digit weeks...
Just for fun, here's a picture from the start of each trimester:
(First Trimester-4wks)
(Second Trimester-13wks)
Looking at the first trimester photos kind of make me sad. I was so skinny in comparison! lol

Belly Button in or out? In, but flat as a pancake when I sit down.

-------------------------
Overall, this mama is feeling pretty great. I am starting to feel slightly uncomfortable. Both when I sleep and when I'm on my feet at work for a while. Still no swelling though, which is great! Hope it stays that way.
Also, my glucose fasting test came back negative for gestational diabetes and the remainder of my blood work was within normal limits. Lastly, the doc said Annalise's heartbeat was still in the high 140s and I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight! I'm so thankful that we've made it this far without packing on excessive pounds. I don't think my joints could have handled it! Watch it be totally different with my next!
Next week: A nursery update!
Pregnancy Health Tip of the Week:
As baby begins to rapidly pack on that cute baby fat, your joints and feet will be feeling it. Make sure you've got comfortable, good fitting shoes. You might need them to walk that baby out come 39-40 weeks!!
Until next time...
You look fantastic :) But I totally understand... I look back on pictures from like 13, 16 & 18 weeks and I get all sad and depressed lol. Its ok though... in a couple months we can work out like crazy!!!!! Excited to see the nursery update next week :)
