Third Trimester (phew!)

Hello blog friends!

So, I have been trying to keep my blog posts "themed," but it seems that lately I just have a lot going on I'd like to post about and there is no way to cutely group it together. Sorry!

I am 28 weeks pregnant and have finally entered the final trimester! It feels as though I have been pregnant FOREVER (I'm sure other mamas can relate) and cannot believe I have to be pregnant for another 3 months (and get even bigger!), but I am so excited to be in the homestretch. I cannot wait to meet this little babe and even though we hardly have any of the necessary baby things or any semblance of a nursery set up...we are just so ready to have him with us.

New this week: baby hiccups! I feel them very low in my bump so I am feeling pretty sure that he is head-down (as I think he has been for most of the pregnancy according to the ultrasounds). Cross your fingers that he stays there!

I am learning so much through this journey and think I'd like to start adding these learnings in each blog post. I'll call it "The Books Don't Tell You This..." Every one & every book tell you that when you are pregnant, you'll get to know every public restroom available and they certainly aren't kidding about that. What they don't say is that public restroom stalls are not designed with pregnant mamas in mind! They are so small and it is getting increasingly difficult to open & close the stall door without hitting my belly. My solution is to use the handicapped stall whenever available- I qualify for it don't you think?

Soon, I will try and post a video of the little guy dancing around in my belly. He puts on a show multiple times a day, but tends to get camera shy. I'll keep trying!

28 weeks- not too much difference

XO, Chelsea
