Updated belly comments......

Here are the funny, yet disturbing, things people have said to me recently:

"You're really starting to look pregnant!"
-I am 6 1/2 months along. I guess this would be a good thing!

"You look like Santa with that belly in that red sweater!"
-Ummm......I really have no comment for this one. Merry Christmas??

"You're getting really big!"
-Thanks. I haven't noticed! =)

"Your boobs are HUGE!"
-I plan on breastfeeding my baby after he's born. So, my boobs must be up for the challenge!

"You're going to have a small baby."
-A woman in HEB told me this after finding out I was already 6 1/2 months along. She felt my tummy should be larger at this point. She must be an expert in pregnant bellies or something!

It's so funny what people will say, and how different their views can be! One day, my stomach is huge, and the next day my stomach is so small! I wonder who's right? I think my tummy is the perfect size for me and baby Christian! At least, that's what I keep telling myself! :)

28 weeks and counting....

Today, marks the beginning of my 3rd trimester! Holy cow! It won't be long now until I'm holding my baby in my arms! I'm so excited! As of now, I am feeling the best I have my entire pregnancy. The nausea, fatigue and contractions are all behind me, and I'm not big enough yet to be feeling very uncomfortable. So, for the first time, I'm enjoying being pregnant. Although, I can hardly wait until Christian's arrival! 12 more weeks to go!

Here are Christian's stats for the week:

Length: 15.25-15.75 inches from head to toe
Weight: 2.25-2.5lbs.
Size: a pair of sneakers
Month: 7

He's getting so big! I can tell he has been going through a major growth spurt! I feel him moving around and playing all the time, and I have even started feeling him have hiccups! It's really cute!

I know that I need to post some pics of my belly. I have just been avoiding it! I took some back when I was 20 weeks along and I hated how they turned out. I just looked fat. At least now I actually look pregnant, so I will break down and take some pics. Stay tuned...... :)
