28 Weeks

We are now entering the 3rd trimester at 28 weeks! Baby Jack now weighs about 2 ½ pounds and is almost 16 inches long!

He is acquiring many new skills with each passing day, he can blink his eyes, cough, suck, hiccup, see light that filters in his cozy home, and is also taking practice breaths. He is also settling into the proper position for birth (hopefully).

At my last appointment, I took my glucose test. (Fun, fun.) The drink itself is not so bad, it’s the part where I can’t eat or drink anything from midnight until the conclusion of the test that is so bad! :) I failed the first, 1 hour test. :( I expected that I would just because I failed the 1 hour but passed the 3 hour with Kamryn. So I went back two days later for the dreaded 3 hour test. I passed. :) Whew!

For the last couple of days, I have been SO TIRED! Just getting dressed in the morning is enough to send me right back to bed (if I had that option). Welcome to the 3RD TRIMESTER! :)
