Hello 3rd Trimester!



Tomorrow is my 29-week mark, and I have officially entered my 3rd trimester. I can't believe how fast time has flown by....it seems like yesterday I found out I was pregnant! Overall, I am feeling well. I am noticing that my back gets sore more often and that I have to now sleep with some strategically-placed pillows. Thankfully, Dave is being very generous with the back rubs.

Some facts about the baby: He weighs a little over 2 pounds and measures about 14.8 inches from the top of his head to his heels. He can open his eyes — which now sport lashes — and he'll turn his head toward a continuous, bright light from the outside. His fat layers are beginning to form, too, as he gets ready for life outside the womb.

Oh - you have a real baby belly now! Very cute!

Have you tried the flashlight trick with the baby? It's very cool.

No...what's that!?!

Put a flashlight up to your belly and the baby will move towards (away? I can't remember) the light.

Is that a different photo? You look more pregnant!

Yeah. They were taken only a day a part, but Dave thought I should take one in this outfit (I think he thought I looked more preggo in it too!) :)
