The Third Trimester!!! 27 weeks today!

A third trimester mommy!

Yep, we made it! We are on the home stretch! I am still feeling pretty good, my heartburn is under control, I am not swollen, my weight gain is good and I can still sleep for relatively decent periods of time before my arms are asleep or I have to got to the bathroom. The baby is about 15 inches in length now, it is no wonder I have started feeling so many kicks and pushes both low and high! We read in What to Expect When You Are Expecting last night that he has more taste buds now than he will have when he is born so he can really taste the fluid now and it tastes like what you are eating. It also said that babies tend to get more active and get more hiccups if you eat spicy foods.....that great and all expect I had just finished telling Matt how strange it was that the buffalo chicken I had made for dinner was really spicy and I was surprised that I liked it because I don't really like spicy things. Matt thought this whole situation was beyond hilarious and laughed liked a fool at the thought of the baby keeping me up all night because I had eaten spicy food. And low and behold....he was active, like a little maniac while I was trying to fall asleep. At least is wasn't 4 hours of hiccups!
