29 Weeks: The Hangover

My baby is close to weighing 3 pounds and is over 15 inches long. This is the second week of my third trimester, and the end is in sight. It’s kinda bitter sweet because this could be my last pregnancy. I’ve always said I wanted two kids. But having more depends on what we end up with. If it’s a boy, I’ll feel like our family is complete. If we have a girl, then I’d probably want to try again. Notice the “I” in the last sentence. My hubby has a whole other plan in mind. Basically, he’s done. So, we’ll see how things play out. (wink wink)

How I’m Feeling: I’ve never been drunk before, and haven’t a clue about what a hangover feels like. But, I’ve been feeling like a truck ran over my head every morning. I’ve heard that lying flat on your back causes a change in heart rate and blood pressure. This could be the reason why I feel dizzy. Lying on my side does help a little.

Rather than getting up too quickly, I’ve got to move slowly from lying down, to sitting up, to standing up.

Unlike my first pregnancy, my nails have been peeling, so I’ve been upping my calcium intake.

It is the final stretch, and this baby will probably double or triple his/her weight between now and D-day. Can’t wait!

    Yes, from my recollection of my college days – a hangover feels like you’ve been run over by a truck. ( hey, there’s nothing better to relax you after a hard, stressful week than a glass of wine !) and about the number of kids — I would just say that I feel truly, truly blessed with my 3 (boys). But has to be right for both of you. And finally – you still are glowingly gorgeous ! Or gorgeously glowing !
