Hi 3rd Tri!!

Yay!! I'm starting the home stretch in my pregnancy because today is the beginning of my third trimester. That means 3 months. 13 weeks. 91 days. Take your pick. I'm so excited to meet Addie. It's so fun to feel her kicking, punching, and somersaulting in there. I learned that this is the most she'll move during the pregnancy because she still has room to flop around. Of course, I will FEEL her moving more in the upcoming weeks, but that will be because she's running out of room and trying to jab her way out. I don't blame her.

How far along?: 27 weeks exactly

Total weight gain: 11 whopping pounds! People still say I'm tiny. I love my little liars. ;)

How big is baby?: Miss Addison is the size of a cucumber, or about 15 inches long and 2.2 lbs.

Maternity clothes?: Oh yes. I have two pairs of jeans and two capris that I wear. Otherwise, I'm wearing normal clothes like skirts, dresses, and long tanks. I had a mini meltdown last weekend because my size 6 shorts that I wore from about the time I starting showing until recently would not fit. At all. Upside? More shopping!!

Stretch marks?: Still none but I had quite the scare the other night when I thought I had three! Thankfully, they were just marks from how I was sitting. Whew!!

Sleep?: Some nights are better than others, but overall it's not bad! Occasionally I get a bad case of acid reflux but after two Tums I can usually deal with it. I'm still sleeping on both sides, my back, and my stomach comfortably.

Best moment this week?: Today my sister treated me with a manicure and pedicure because I'm stressed out and sore.

Movement?: Kicks and punches sometimes so hard that we can see them on the outside of my stomach! They usually only happen after breakfast, in the early afternoon, and before I go to bed.

Food cravings?: Still no cravings. Love my salads, fruit, and peanut butter. I'm not going to lie... I enjoy my homemade Starbucks iced coffee every morning!!

Labor signs?: Hopefully not for a few more months

Belly button in or out?: It's definitely getting shallower. I don't know which is scarier, an outtie or stretch marks!

What I miss: My J. Crew wardrobe. And tanning.

What I'm looking forward to: Our baby shower in August. I ordered a fabulous hostess gift today and I can't wait to give it to my hostess!!

Milestone: I believe hitting the 3rd tri is a milestone in itself!
