28 Weeks! We are officially there! The third trimester and it feels so good! Well, it feels good to be in the last stretch, my body on the other hand, is not feeling so good. haha Baby is the size of a large eggplant at this point and is about 14.5 inches and 2.2lbs. She is getting big and I can definitely feel her growing! These past two weeks I have felt so many more big movements like rolling and pushing which is new. I still feel the kicks and punches but it's the big movements that are getting uncomfortable.

I was actually on a sick leave from work for the past 10 days which was because my braxton hicks contractions had been getting stronger and more frequent due to stress. I took the time to rest, emotionally and physically and God totally knew I needed the break from my busy life just for a little while. I was able to get things done that I had been procrastinating for months and that also felt good to have some time to do those things.

Me and Luke were also able to travel to visit my parents this past weekend and we got to go to Calgary and Ikea as well. Seriously love that place and yes their meatballs are totally worth the trip even if you don't buy too much. :) We also picked up our stroller and car seat which totally feels so much more real! My mom also knitted a baby blanket for baby and it is so wonderful and special. I love it!

Over all I am still feeling pretty good but I'm noticing sleeping though the night is becoming a rare occurrence. I will wake up in the night from nothing and wont be able to go back to sleep for at least two hours. My body is only giving me practice for the time to come I'm sure. :P

My belly is for sure growing and even in the past two weeks I've notices it's bigger. I saw my doctor today and she measured my belly. Two weeks ago I measured at 26 cm and today I measured 29 cm (from pubic bone to the top of my uterus). Pretty crazy! My ribs and back are for sure feeling it!
