So I just realized today that I'm almost in my third trimester. Wow! I'm not sure exactly which week starts it but I'm into my 26th week now. Here are my pictures from yesterday...
Super Bean moves around all the time. She is getting big and strong. Lately, I've been feeling a lot of 1-2 punches, bam, bam! :) And I'll feel one on one side of my body and another all the way over on the other side at almost the same time. Last week, I was saying to Brian that he should watch my belly because he hadn't seen her move on the outside yet. He was leaning in close talking and singing to her and she kicked and nearly hit him right in the nose! He said, "I saw that one!!" :)
For the last week or so, it has felt like I pulled my groin on both sides. Except I didn't. It just hurts like I did. I'm guessing that's round ligament pain...? And my butt muscles still get sore when I'm sleeping on one side for a while, so I switch to the other side and the same thing happens. Oh, and when I was going up the stairs the other day, I noticed a new chronic clicking sound coming from my right knee. If you didn't already know, I've had a weird crunching/grinding sound coming from my left knee for years, whenever I go down stairs or squat. So now I have one on the other side, to match. I'm guessing it came about from my increased weight. I just weighed myself and I'm at about +20lbs.
On a happier note, yesterday I was just sitting and feeling her move and thinking about how excited and happy I am. I am full of so much love, I could burst! If I think too long on it, I will start crying and get all emotional. :) I guess it's those lovely pregnancy hormones.
Also, quick update on Pat. She is doing really great. She's still in the hospital (on one hand I can't believe she's been in for a month already, on the other, it feels like it's been longer than that!), waiting until she is ready to get transferred to a Rehab place. Her PT is going well. She's in good spirits. Happy to be alive. She and my dad are talking about renewing their vows once she is all healthy again. :) I try to visit almost every day if I'm not too busy. If you look over to the right on this blog, you will see that I'm "following" the other blog I am writing on her progress. Feel free to check it out if you like!
Until we meet again....
