I am almost 28 weeks/7 months/ in the third trimester. The pregnancy has simultaneously felt like it's gone quickly and lasted forever. Little girl is moving quite a bit. My indigestion has been really bad at night. Just lots of burping.
Next week will be busy. We have our 28 week appt, Bertie's sibling class, the birthing class, a hair appt and the normal stuff, joy school and soccer.
Bertie started soccer last week, it went ok. I signed him up as 'daddy and me' so he and Aaron could do something together (because Bertie and I always do stuff together). It's mostly controlled chaos of 20 little kids+parents. At the end of May Bertram and I will be doing swimming lessons again. He's old enough for the non-parent class, but he's not tall enough. Which is fine, I like doing the classes with him, and I have a maternity bathing suit. Plus I'm trying to soak up as much one-on-one time as I can.
We moved Bertram into a big boy bed a couple weeks ago. It went much smoother than expected. We got my old bunk bed from dad's house. My thinking was two beds for the space of one. So far he's slept on the bottom bunk, and just climbs up and down for fun. I'm hoping to get him to sleep on the top bunk, so when my mom comes, she can have the bottom bunk.
I got Bertie's hair cut yesterday. It is WAY too short. It's like a regular little boy haircut, no more long beautiful curls. I actually cried the whole way home. Then I felt worse because he told me he didn't like it. I told him I didn't either, but it would grow back.
How far along? 27 weeks 4 days
Total weight loss/gain: Somewhere in the neighbourhood of 10-12 lbs. I haven't been eating as carefully as I should.
Maternity clothes? All. With the exception of mens basketball shorts, and a couple pairs of leggings.
Sleep: I'm tired all day. Then either can't get to sleep at night, or wake to pee, and can't go back to sleep.
