27 weeks!

Hello there third trimester! It seems like I've made it so far until I look at it by percentages. 68% doesn't feel much past the halfway point. I thought time would start going faster a couple weeks ago, but it has actually been dragging even longer than the first trimester lately. Every day feels like a week. I've been so tired. I just want to eat and sleep. That is all. And I don't do either nearly as much as I'd like. I'm up about 12 pounds, so that's good. Gaining right on schedule. I think Baby J is a little bigger than statistics say she should be at this point, but no proof of course. I'm getting really stressed out about doing maternity and newborn photos. I can't make a decision, because I am having a hard time agreeing to spend a few thousand dollars on them. But I'm so in love with everything the photographer has to offer. Not sure what I'm going to do yet. Really just ready for January to get here. Aleena has now started climbing on my rib cage. Good times! I swear she does it on purpose when she's hungry or annoyed with a loud sound. Lol. Not much else to report this week. Just happy to be in the third and final stage!!

I don't know if you've gotten stuff from them but when they have discounts, you can find some great items. I am planning on using my coupons for photo books for the grandmas for Christmas and a canvas to hang at home.

	Comment from Summer0120 » Posted Oct. 21, 2015 3:16pm Yeah I agree with you all. We are starting to lean towards not doing professional and just ordering canvases ourselves or making them.
	Comment from Cattsmeow » Posted Oct. 21, 2015 3:07pm Yay for third trimester! Sorry it seems to be going so slow for you! I am not doing any professional maternity pictures. I think we're just going to have someone take pictures with my camera, then I will edit them myself. Since this is our last baby, I want family maternity pictures.
	Comment from pbc910 » Posted Oct. 21, 2015 3:04pm We decided not to have maternity pictures just because I hate having pictures made and the bump dates I do will be good enough. I may have my mom take some with her nice camera just to have of hubby and I. Otherwise, I'm also planning on having her take pictures of the babies when they arrive. I'm not too good at photography but I like photo editing so hoping that will all work. Hoping time starts going by a little faster for you now. I can't even remember the beginning of the 3rd trimester that's fast its gone!
	Comment from MalPal85 » Posted Oct. 21, 2015 2:36pm Congrats on 27 weeks and the 3rd trimester! Sorry the time seems to be slowing down. It's actually been going pretty fast for me now but in the beginning it dragged and dragged and dragged. I'm not doing any maternity photos but I'm definitely doing newborn photos! Sorry Aleena is climbing on your rib cage. Baby Colton is head butting my bladder if it makes you feel any better, haha.
