Where did the time go!?
This week I passed 7 months and now officially in the 3d trimester!
Two photos to compare the belly size
I love it! Can't wipe this long stupid grin off my face every time I look in the mirror :)
It's so round and firm now, constantly showing little bumps from the baby kicks.
Based on my belly shape I can already recognize whether it's baby's head or an elbow that's poking.
Or maybe I just like to think that I can.
It's great that she got much stronger and more active, except for the night time when her boxing exercises wake me up.
My energy level is pretty low these days, in fact it's barely present in the middle of the day. I'm happy when at least something is done from the 'to do' list.
The appetite, on the other hand, is growing noticeably. I used to crave potato in the second trimester, but now it's all about fruits. The other day I ate an entire lemon without feeling any aversion to its sourness.
I also can't get enough of apple cider (it's right in season, so yay!).
Me and baby have gained approximately around 8 kg (17lb) from the start, which is still considered a little too low. I guess it's just my body type that won't let me be very big, although I have 2 more months to go.
All blood tests came fine and overall my doctors are very optimistic about the pregnancy, saying I'm young and healthy and that's everything it takes to grow a healthy baby.
Last month I had so much fun with a baby shopping. I guess it's another thing that first-time moms are enjoying. This couple of diapers turned into this shelf filled with all first essentials.
We haven't gotten any baby furniture yet, so I store everything like this.
