3rd Trimester!

Today is officially the first day of my third and final trimester! I can't believe it. Some days I feel like I have been pregnant forever, other days it feels like it has flown by!

Anyway, today I went to my monthly doctors appointment and it was nice to check to make sure that my blood pressure and everything was still good. Everything checked out perfect, thank god. Honestly though, I was a more nervous to get weighed in today because it really feels like I have blown up over the last 5 weeks, so I didn't want to get on that scale! I told myself I was not going to look, but I failed. I gained another 5lbs since my last appointment 5 weeks ago (not so bad, I had prepared myself for some serious numbers). So far almost 7 months in I have gained 15 lbs...not so bad.

On Monday I have to check my blood sugar to make sure I have not developed gestational diabetes. Basically, they give you this fanta style orange drink (pure sugar) and see how your blood sugar reacts within 1 hour. So Monday we shall see.

I feel like over the last few days my belly has got so much bigger (which is making my boobs look smaller again! lol). I still get all kinds of comments about how big my belly is though :( And I most admit it just keeps getting bigger and bigger so whatevs. I'm still okay with working out a few times a week so forgive the outfit etc! I just got back from my walk.
