Third Trimester!

I can not believe I am in the 3rd trimester already!  I didn't fully realized that until yesterday! I told my husband we only have like 12 weeks left and he was like "What?! How did that happen??"Hahaha!

 I have been in total nesting mode already!  I've been working a lot the past two weeks or so on really cleaning out the house, like getting rid of a lot, organizing everything, etc.  With living in such a small place with so many people I was seriously beginning to feel overwhelmed, especially with thoughts of getting out all the baby clothes, crib, etc...I had been feeling the desperate need to clear out any clutter to make room for the baby!  I've made a lot of progress but still have several areas I still want to work on before he arrives.

I pulled out, washed and went through our little bitty baby clothes and, oh my goodness, it makes me so excited seeing them!  I can't wait to have him in my arms!

This morning I had my ultrasound to check on him because of the "bright spot" that was on his heart at the 20 week ultrasound.  The "bleep" (as the doctor called it) was still there but everything else still looks great so she (my Dr.) is not concerned about it.  Baby Dylan is measuring exactly as he should, head down, 2lbs 10oz and just looks wonderful!
So after she says all that, she asked "Have we talked about your testing after 32 weeks?" I said no, and she explained that because of my medical history (the genetic mutation and a deficiency...both which they found through my bloodwork last summer) and history of losses that after 32 weeks I will have an ultrasound every week until he is born to monitor things like fluid levels, placenta, movements, growth, etc. I was pretty surprised by this, I was thinking this would be my last ultrasound.  I am glad that they are monitoring this pregnancy so carefully and I love that I will get to see my baby every week so I am looking at it as a good thing and not something to be worried about.

I am enjoying the pregnancy,  my favorite part is watching him make my belly move, last night he kicked a bowl off me when I was relaxing with an evening snack! And he is always kicking my books when I am reading:) I have been feeling good for the most part ever since the serious morning sickness all first trimester ended.  I get worn out physically and exhausted easily and my back hurts often (which might be better if I wasn't working so much on decluttering/organizing the house), my feet and hands get slightly swollen at times already but really I can't complain, it's all minor things and feeling him move around makes any inconvenience totally worth it!

Thank you for all the prayers! Two-thirds of the way there!

This one just might have to go into the hospital bag:)
