The 3rd trimester...

Yesterday I hit 28 weeks which means I am in the final stretch!! (but I still have a way to go..) Over the past week I have started getting heartburn (i assume that is what it is anyway!) and I have realised that I am constantly hearing about a "blooming period" during pregnancy and what with morning sickness and everything, I think I have missed out on it completely!!! :-( Oh well.. As I joked to one of my friends, all I need now are varicose veins and heamorhoids (sp?) and this will be the textbook horrible pregnancy!!! ;-) BUT it isn`t all bad, after all, I haven`t had to hold my stomach in for months now!Despite feeling icky, I must be doing something right. I have never had as many compliments on my clothing and how I look in general as I have since I fell pregnant! It is quite cool really! Just today when I went to immigration, the little ladies in the canteen where you have to buy the stamps to pay for your visa were complimenting me on my style and saying that I look like a model! I find it hilarious because I look more like a duck than a model but it is always nice to hear things like that!!! ;-) It might also be because the majority of clothes I wear at the moment were picked out by other people.. does that say something about my bad taste?! LOL! The baby is getting bigger and I can feel him alot more which is cool, although it has got to the point where he kicks or moves around and it really hurts. I don`t mind though because he is healthy!
