Third Trimester Begins!


Today marks the beginning of my third and final trimester in this pregnancy! I cannot tell you how excited I am!

Number one, this brings us 12 weeks closer to meeting little Baby Duffy! Tim and I are so anxious we cannot wait! We look forward to this new stage of our lives and the challenges and joy it will bring.

Number two, I am almost done! I am sorry to all of you out there that love being pregnant, but I am not one of them. And as I start this final stage of pregnancy and I get bigger and more uncomfortable, the more I cannot wait to get back to a somewhat normal state in my body! I know it will take some time after to really get back to normal, but I cannot wait to get back to a workout regimen where I can sweat and run and feel good about myself versus feeling like a big fat blob!

Number three, wine is waiting for me at the end of the tunnel! Wine, champagne, martinis! The freedom to have a drink without feeling guilty about it! Oh, I so cannot wait!

But of course, the most important one of all is Baby Duffy coming into this World!

So at 28 weeks, Baby Duffy should be about 2 1/4 pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and 14.8 inches long. She is knocking around inside of my belly like a Mexican jumping bean! I swear she is making up her own little office in there to take charge and let her parents know that she has some big plans when she comes out!

I on the other hand have been pretty quiet this week! I have been trying to lay low to combat this cold and reenergize myself. I am finally feeling somewhat better so I am going to get back to my workout regimen this week! I received some good news on Friday, I passed my Glucose test, so no gestational diabetes!

I ordered the baby sheets yesterday from a local boutique. They are custom - a light lilac pattern for the bumper and a darker grape color for the skirt and ties which should be a nice contrast with the charcoal grey glider we are ordering. I hope it all comes together beautifully!
