28 weeks

HELLO THIRD TRIMESTER!!! Ive never seen you before and I'm looking forward to all the different experiences I will get to go through in the next 11 weeks. I had a Dr appointment this week which went amazing. McKenzie has been kicking me more and more, and they are getting harder and harder. The Dr told us she is head down and over 3 lbs already so I'm expecting her to be around 7 lbs but haven't decided exactly how much shell weigh based on my gut feelings lol This week has also brought on a new kind of symptoms, I have become lactose intolerant. I noticed previously for the past week or 2 that cheese was giving me a tummy ache but never really put much thought into it, well this week I have noticed that not only does cheese make my stomach upset but so does milk, a large amount of butter, and chocolate. I usually get heartburn and some indigestion as well as some very bad stomach aches. So the last 2 days of this week I have tried to remove as many dairy products out of my diet including chocolate which will help with my weight gain lol but makes me sad because I love chocolate and cheese!! I have read that its quite common to occur during the last trimester so until she is born I guess I am just going to deal with it and hope it doesn't continue after she is here. This week other than the horrible symptoms I get from the dairy products has been very well. Angela has also sent out our baby shower invites(see below, contact info has been blocked for privacy), which are absolutely adorable and I am so beyond excited for the baby shower. There are things coming up that I am just so excited for. Our 3D pictures in 2 weeks, our maternity photo shoot with an amazing photographer in 4 weeks, and our baby shower in 4 weeks. woohooo bring on all the goodies and fun times!!!
