So today I am 25 weeks, 4 days along. My 3rd trimester has definitely snuck up on me!! Overall, I have no major complaints. Some of the less than glamorous things I have noticed happening with me are:
-->I have noticed that I am starting to get tired more easily again like in the first trimester, and being able to sleep soundly is pretty much nonexistent. I constantly wake up to shift positions, use the bathroom, or because of the kicking alarm clock inside me. No other time do you love being kicked as much as this except when you're pregnant.
-->Heartburn has made its way into my life. My mother in law said that means Brayden is going to have a head full of hair!
-->I've also noticed I am becoming forgetful (my list-making skills are really coming in handy right now) and also just a little clumsy.
-->I notice so many more aches and pains in my body than ever before. After walking 45 minutes on the treadmill, my hips and legs begin to ache.
All of this is more than worth it for a healthy baby boy though, so bring it on!
I went in last week for a routine ob visit and the doctor said I'm measuring right on track and that Brayden's heartbeat sounds good. Tom was able to hear Brayden's heartbeat this week by putting his ear on my belly. So cool...I'm kinda jealous! I go back to the doctor in 3 weeks for the gestational diabetes test so I plan on bringing a good book with me since I have to sit for an hour and wait for the results.

ReplyDeleteHey Ami its Nana and Aunt Jess! Let me tell you, I honestly believe the heartburn myth is true. I have the worst with Jess and none with Tom and Cindy, and Jess came out looking like a monster with all her hair! Don't worry its a good thing Jess has great hair!
