Assuming most of us have hit the 3rd tri, or will be very soon!
How are you feeling?
What are you doing to prepare for birth, and when baby gets here?
I’m losing my energy for sure, and getting out of breath pretty easily. But I know I still have a full trimester to get through so I’m not complaining 😆
I’ve been listening to lots of birth stories and watching videos. Watched an online Breast Feeding series. Doing specific exercises and stretches to open up my pelvic area. Still haven’t got nursery ready but hoping to in the next few weeks.
Re: Third Trimester 🎉
I am not enjoying summer pregnancy but I'm glad I'll be healed enough to enjoy next summer. And probably at least some of ski season.
I am a teacher and worked until 23 weeks, and now summer break is coming to and end, as I got back to work next week. I have spent the entire summer getting rid of stuff, cleaning, and organizing. I have kind of run out of steam at this point. I sewed a playmat for him, the bassinet is by the bed, and the pack n play with changing pad and bassinet it set up in the living room. My baby shower is this weekend, so I am a smidge excited about that.
Last school year, the mom of one of my students lost her baby at 30 weeks and that's all I can think about right now. Feeling a little anxious. So, my doctor's appointment couldn't come soon enough.
I supposedly have gestational diabetes so, I have been pricking my finger four times a day for about a month now. And my glucose is almost always in the good range, so I think they might be wrong about the GD, but they are still making me test...
I took a baby basics class and a breastfeeding class at the beginning of July, and I also took the hospital tour already. Tomorrow, I take a birthing class. I found a daycare and will be signing paperwork on Monday.
Good luck ladies! We are in the home stretch! 💚💜💙
