7 Months Preggo!




Well, today I officially hit the 28-week mark--and the start of the final trimester! Mike and I had a wedding to go to for one of his co-workers so I'm all dressed up in this month's pictures.

I'm still feeling pretty good overall but I've developed a few of the common pregnancy "symptoms" for this trimester. For one thing, I've been having difficulty getting comfortable making it harder for me to fall asleep (and stay asleep). This, in turn, is making me feel more irritable and less patient (God bless Mike--he's been the patient one!). My back and feet are aching more frequently now too. Luckily there is some solace in knowing that there's only three more months to go. On the other hand, there's STILL three more months to go--YIKES!!!

My 7-month checkup is Monday morning at which point I take the glucose screening test for gestational diabetes. I am kind of nervous about it only because I had problems with my blood sugar dropping at the start of my second trimester. Luckily from what I've read, there is no correlation between hypoglycemia turning into hyperglycemia. I'll be sure to share how that appointment goes on Monday.
