This is my 30th week of being pregnant which means I have about 10 weeks left if I go full-term. That is only 2 1/2 months left before our little girl will be here. This week she weighs as much as a head of cabbage, 3 pounds, and I feel every bit of her moving now. She has been getting hiccups on a daily basis even a few times a day. It's hard to believe she is going to gain another 3 to 5 pounds before she is born. As she gets bigger the space for her to move will decrease so her movements shouldn't hurt as much I hope. lol Brinley is able to open her eyes and her eyesight is improving. When she is born her eyesight will be about 20/400 so she will only be able to see objects right in front of her face.

Right now I am in the middle of my semester for my summer classes so I have to study for mid-term exams but all I want to do is read baby books, watch shows about pregnancy and go shopping for baby stuff. It's hard to focus on school work when I have a baby moving around inside of me all day reminding of what is to come. July looks to be a busy month for me as well. I have several different classes scheduled on childbirth, infant CPR, and newborn care. I also have my baby showers scheduled and trying to finish all my school work. I'll be ready for a break before the baby gets here. August I plan to spend a lot of time in the pool since I will be done with classes. Yay!

Week 28 - 3rd Trimester
Today was a great day. I'm feeling pretty good about this whole pregnancy thing and really starting to enjoy being pregnant. I think I have finally come around which is good considering that I only have 3 more months to go now.
I still have a couple of busy months ahead of me with childbirth classes, newborn care classes, doctor appointments (I have one tomorrow then have to start going every two weeks), work and school. Luckliy I have about 3 more weeks in one class then I can concentrate on the other two I have until the begining of August.
I'm finding it harder to bend over to shave in the shower or pick things up off the floor. I have also noticed that I am a little clumsy and my balance is off as well.
My weight was 196.9 this morning which is about what it was last week so I haven't gained any weight in the last week. I am trying to watch what I eat but it is hard because I really like sweets. lol Brinley weighs about the same as a Chinese cabbage which is 2 1/4 pounds. She still has a long way to grow.
