Third Trimester

This week begins the third trimester ~ how exciting! Of course we’ve been looking forward to this trimester most of all: another ultrasound, baby showers, childbirth classes, and much more. I think it’s amazing that JT will only grow another 5 inches in length or so, but will probably quadruple his weight. Those are just approximations based on averages, but impressive numbers regardless.

Water aerobics have continued to live up to their reputation. I really look forward to class and come home feeling refreshed and healthy. I am disappointed that I can’t take them in May; between Young Life and childbirth classes, there isn’t an open night. It will be nice to start up again in June. The fitness center welcomes participants to take classes up until they deliver with a pay-as-you-go policy the month they’re due, so I will most likely continue in July as well.

My belly button is now an outie in the evenings, much to my dismay. Jim assures me that it will go back. šŸ™‚ I weigh 145 pounds and my waist measures 36 inches now, a whole ten inches from where I started!
