28 Weeks

Helloooooo third trimester! I can't believe we are already to this point - on one hand I feel like I've been pregnant forever, but on the other I don't know where the time went.

Our apartment has started to fill up with boxes from deliveries of generous gifts from family and friends (thanks so much everyone!), and I'm starting to feel like I'm on an episode of "hoarders". I'm looking forward to next weekend when Jared & I can spend some time on the nursery and get everything in place. After that, it might be time for a babymoon!

This week I took a quick trip to Philadelphia for a meeting, and on my way there I ended up sitting next to the only other pregnant woman on the plane! We laughed at the coincidence, and had fun talking to each other about our pregnancies and little ones on the way.

The baby is seeming to do well, and I can feel him move most of the day now. I think he's tossing and turning in there quite a bit, and last night I swear he moved from head down position to sideways, as I thought I could feel his head stretch out one side of my belly and his feet kick the other.

As the weeks progress I still feel physically great. However, I have been experiencing a slight case of "baby brain" (at least that's my excuse), and my tailbone has been increasingly sore when I sit on it. I read that it's a pretty common pregnancy pain as the baby is putting pressure on the tailbone, and considering my leg/nerve pain has gone away in recent weeks, I will gladly take the trade.
