Third trimester!!!

Hi everyone, I haven't updated this blog in a while mainly because nothing exciting is happening. We are now at week 29 and officially in the third trimester. I now have moved to the doctor appointment every 2 weeks stage which kind of sucks. I am so excited for the next milestone though, it seems like at 30 weeks you are really near the finish line. I had my glucose screening this week. I have to say, they have come a long way with the glucose drink then when I had to do it with Eliza. It really wasn't bad at all. My results came back normal so that is another thing we are in the clear of. They did tell me that my iron was low and I was a little anemic. This is not something I have ever been told before or had to deal with before. Evidently it is pretty common in pregnancy and I am just having to take an iron supplement every morning. Besides that, which it obviously not bothering me because I had not idea I was low on iron I am still having heartburn issues. Maybe this little girl has a head full of hair! I am taking nexium everyday now since the zantac wasn't cutting it but with the medicine it is not bothering me at all now. That is pretty much all that is "wrong" with me right now so I am very thankful. I am not so big that I can't do normal activities. I am still going to yoga twice a week and doing the treadmill twice a week. I am not having to get up in the middle of the night to pee every night yet. She seems to be up pretty high which is why my heartburn is worse but my bladder is ok! We do have some exciting stuff coming up in March. Not surrogacy related, but my husband the Chef is going to be at Taste of Hampton Roads and he got me VIP tickets so I get to see him compete in the iron chef competition and then I get to go to the event after. We had so much fun last year, this year probably won't be quite as fun because I can't drink but I plan on making up for what I can't have in free wine in free cheese and desserts! After that on March 13th my IPs are driving over so that we can do a tour of the hospital. Then the week after that my daughter and I are driving to my IPs and going to their baby showers. So I have a pretty exciting month next month.
