27 weeks tomorrow

I think that means I am in the third trimester! Eeeeek! Only 3 months to go! Now THAT is scary! I am so excited to meet this new little person, but also terrified of having a newborn again - and all of those newborn troubles, and terrified of having two babies!

Been feeling pretty good! Get the odd strong BH every now and then, but nothing regular. Feel pretty huge at times. Have had a bit of SPD pain - hurts a bit when putting pants on, turning over in bed, and the other night I 'ran' to Charlotte to stop her doing something and yelled out in pain! Ouchy! But hasn't been too bad yet. Have a sore tailbone and lower back if I sit too long (every night after my laptop time LOL) but that is nothing new.

Getting quite a few strong movements, and getting the rolling and pushing movements as well as the jabs now - so bub must be getting big! Ray hasn't felt bub move yet - he works all day, and we go to bed at different times, so never has a chance! And the times he has been around when bub is kicking up a storm, I call out to him and bub stops! Cheeky!

I have just discovered that my GP has gone on 12 months leave! Whaaaaaaaaaaaat!?! Not happy Jan! I mean, she was a bit clueless at times, and loved laughing at me :P But I loved seeing my woman doc! So will make an appointment at 28 weeks to see a different doc - he is lovely though, so I should be ok! Just a checkup and a referral for the GTT.

What else. Oh, over the last month or so my weight has been creeping back on, and I am now only about 200g under my starting weight! Arghhh! I didn't want to gain any weight at all - yeah right! By this stage of pregnancy it is ok to have gained between 5-10kgs - so minus the baby and other pregnancy related 'stuff' I may have lost around 5kgs so far I guess?

So I really want to start eating better, and maybe start a bit of exercise?
