28 weeks: 3rd trimester


I am now officially in my 3rd trimester. I have gained about 20lbs now. I am not to happy about that but I sit around a lot at work and cant do much about it. I have a vericlose vein on my rear end that hurts pretty bad and doesnt make sitting around at work any easier. I finally got maternity clothes at old navy, I love them, but I think I may even out grow them. Hopefully not. I have 3 more months to go... We havent got a chance to decorate or paint the babies room yet. But we should start soon, I have a baby shower planned with family on November 6th and with friends on November 14th. Carson kicks quite a bit, and does the hokey pokey in my stomach all night long. I like to eat a lot of cinnomin stuff, apple sauce, waffles, cinnomin toast crunch. I have been having braxton hicks contractions, sometimes they hurt pretty bad. But apperently its normal, I was seen in triage last week for that, and also I had thought my water broke, turns out my cervix released a pocket of water, it wasnt amniotic fluid.. Thank god! Anthony has been amazing, helping me out with chores, giving massages, and cutting my toe nails, he even cooks me meals and helps make me lunch in the morning, I couldnt ask for a more supportive, loving husband. I feel blessed and every day I just think I cant imagine not having him in my life. Lucian will be coming home from Texas this weekend, he is very excited and prays for his baby brother every day and asks me "are you fat yet?" he's gonna be suprised how big I am when he see's me. Im hoping to keep my weight under 35 lbs... we will see though, cause Thanksgiving is next month and then the Christmas cookies and goodies in December are coming. Anyways, Im just getting very excited to see baby Carson, and very nervous to give birth. I start my birthing classes October 11th!

  1. Hahaha...yeah, the nerves about delivery are starting to set in for me too:)! I'm at 30lbs weight gain and I slowed way down after about 28 weeks (I think). Seems like I've been hovering around 30 for awhile. And don't worry about the Baby's room...somehow you'll find time for yours and I'll find time for mine. I just hope I can walk into it before I bring Baby B home! 5 weeks left...or less...or more. Would kinda be nice if due dates were precise:)
