34 down, 6 to go...

I cannot believe how fast this pregnancy has gone! It seems like just yesterday I was taking a pregnancy test and worrying over the results when I saw that we were going to be parents again! I quickly moved from worry to acceptance and started preparing for a new little one.

I feel very blessed to be able to have a baby.  The whole experience is truly a miracle, which I have sometimes had to remind myself of! Since I haven't been very good about documenting this pregnancy I figured on doing a quick recap of the past few months.

Trimester 1:

• craving potato chips (everyday I had to have some Lays original, or plain pringles)
• needing extra sleep- naptimes!
• no morning sickness
• no food aversions
• pretty boring first tri

Trimester 2:

• a little more energy
• gained most of my weight
• salt craving finally left and was replaced by a sugar addiction! (pretty normal for me though)
• we found out the baby was a girl! (first Barger granddaughter)
• started wearing maternity clothes
• cried at the smallest things- I'm sure it's from having the extra girl hormones because I wasn't nearly this moody with the last one

Trimester 3:

• weight gain slows down (yay!)
• feet start swelling in the evenings
• can still wear my wedding rings (I actually wore them to the hospital to have my last baby)
• lost sight of my feet, but can still bend enough to shave my legs!
• worries about labor set in
• start non-stress tests to make sure baby is happy
• failed the one hour glucose test, but passed the 3 hour
• the back and hip pain begins

Still no pictures. I really don't like how I look pregnant. Just imagine a big girl with a watermelon stuffed up her shirt and you'll have a pretty good idea of how I look! :)

Keep checking for more updates as the big day draws closer!
