Here I am, in the 3rd trimester, and it still seems a bit surreal. I've seen the ultrasounds, heart the heartbeat, I see & feel him wiggling around, we've almost got the nursery done, our house is getting stocked with baby supplies, but I still feel like "wow, I'm going to have a baby, a real-life little human, to take care of in a couple months..." It STILL seems strange/surreal to me!
Anybody else feel the same way?

Oh yeah... especially since I am NOT a baby person... Give me a 2 year old and we're cool but babies!!! YIKES!! I've changed 2 diapers in my life, never burped, babysat, or fed a baby. When my friends had babies and asked if I wanted to hold them I would say no it's ok... lol
My DH on the other hand LOVES babies and can play with them all day and is very comfortable around them.
I'm not worried that I'll be uncomfortable with my baby and I can't wait but still it's kinda intimidating to think that soon I'll be a pro diaper changer!
Very crazy to think about sometimes.. Funny story, when I had my glucose test. My father, jokester that he is, was like 'omg, what if your blood work comes back you're pregnant' so that started a running series of jokes. Got my results, told SO I passed. Found out I was pregnant but that it might not be his (which it totally is. Total joke right there) lol

Yup..I think I'm in denial. lol
Such a weird feeling. I'm excited and anxious at the same time. Worrying how DD will react or how I will cope or how DH and I will manage to get in time for "us" as well as the family. I know it will all work out but I also know it will be SO different with two. I'm just glad DD is older!!!
It still hasn't hit me yet. My mom and I were talking about the shower she is throwing me and I was like "doesn't it seem weird that we're talking about my baby shower?"
Completely agree! One of my best friends just had a baby last week and when I was holding him it was just crazy to think that soon I'll be holding another infant, but she'll be mine!!
