Dear Pepper,
How can time go so slow and so fast all at once? The days seem to crawl while the weeks fly by. We rang in the new year exactly how any pregnant woman should...asleep. Although Lorelai woke us up a couple times with teething pains, we generally got a lot of sleep over the holiday.
I've had a lot of photo clients go into labor at 35 and 36 weeks lately, and with healthy babies that did not have to go to the NICU...I'm starting to get a little jealous. Those lucky women got to skip out on an entire month of pregnancy.
Swelling still isn't too bad, all my shoes still fit just fine which is the highlight of this trimester compared to last pregnancy. I have noticed the longer I'm on my feet, the bigger they are at the end of the day!
I don't have any pending signs of early labor. I have braxton hicks, but that's pretty normal I hear (even though this my first pregnancy experiencing that). Over exerting myself is a constant battle, which has caused me a lot of unnecessary aches and pains, none of which seems to translate into you coming any earlier than your expected due date.
Lorelai has been more interested in my belly and her little sister recently. Possibly because it is hard to miss :) Overall there are good days, and bad days....but I'm trying to be thankful for every moment I can keep you safe inside my belly!
