Yay, I’m into the third and final trimester of my pregnancy! It certainly feels like I’ve been pregnant forever but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now! I’m 28w + 3d so I only have 11 1/2 weeks to go!!!
I am truly looking forward to the first real twinges of labour and I am hoping I can labour at home for as long as possible, like I did with my daughter! For me, this is so much more comfortable and enables me to let my body and brain work in unison to get through the pain of labour!
I am starting to get uncomfortable now and I think I have started to waddle sometimes too! I’ve also started bumping into things with my belly which is mostly funny but sometimes hurts!
The baby lets me know when it’s awake with lots of movements and some powerful little kicks! My daughter thinks it’s amazing that she can feel the baby moving around and it has been a great bonding experience for her.                 The Glucose Challenge Test at 27 weeks was simply awful! The drink made me feel so so so sick, I really struggled to sit for an hour without vomiting! I had the bin in my sights the entire time and I couldn’t wait to get out of the hospital and into the fresh air!   

I’ll check in again soon!

Cheers Kate
