3 Months to Go

Today, I am 27 weeks pregnant. Today marks the beginning of my 3rd trimester, which means that I only have 13 weeks, or 3 months (from today to be exact) until baby Beasley will be here.

Overall, I have had amazing pregnancy and I am more than thankful. All of those crazy symptoms that most have in their 1st trimester never came about for me. I haven't been sick until now, and the only thing that causes me to get sick is eating certain foods. Mexican, fried fish, anything greasy, and extremely spicy has been put on the back burner for now. I think that my stomach is literally at the bottom of my throat, there's just no room in there for anything, and most of it just wants to come back up. I HAVE gained weight, regardless of what many may think! (hehe) I am beginning to outgrow my first round of maternity clothes, and I am hoping that they will last just a little bit longer. I am tired of sleeping on my left side and can't wait until I can once again lay on my stomach. Lets just say that I will be at the pool this summer on a float, ON MY STOMACH! Now, I will say that there is one thing that has been the biggest challenge of all. I feel like my hormones have taken over me, and I am only hoping that it just doesn't get any worse. Crying for absolutely no reason at all is getting ridiculous, and feeling insecure and sensitive all the time is for the birds! Please tell me it will go away. Have you ever seen the show on WEtv, "Bridezillas?" Well, if they had a show called "Mother-to-be-zillas," I would definitely qualify. Its terrible!

Overall, our baby boy is one character. If he is 1/2 as wild on the outside as he is on the inside, we're gonna have a real boy on our hands. He loves kicking and punching me, and hiccups are quite the daily routine, but don't get me wrong, I LOVE feeling him move, except when its 9:00 and I am trying to go to sleep! Now, if someone would just give me a swift kick of motivation to get the nursery done, ugh!

In some ways these last few weeks will seem to take forever, but then the last week will be here and you'll think "Oh no! Here we go!" It's gonna be great!!!

Don't worry, the crying will go away! At least it's not Christmas and there are NO Hallmark commercials! LOL! The last couple of months won't be so bad. Before you know it Baby B will be here :-)

Hang in there Amy! It will be over with before you know it. And the funny thing is that in a few short months of Mills' arrival, you will forget what it was like being pregnant (and how hard childbirth might be). It's such a weird thing. I think God allows us to forget so that we will have more children. You are going to do great!
