I’m 28 weeks this weekend and aside from feeling fat, tired and addicted to full fat milk, I’m getting excited about only having about 12 weeks left! Baby boy is rolling and kicking quite a bit most days then he seems to have a quiet day which freaks me out. I’ve got an ultrasound on Monday to check his growth etc as I have a single umbilical artery. Can’t wait to see him! Hopefully he shows his face. The last few ultrasounds he’s been facing my spine or butt. Super unhelpful. 😂

Also 28 weeks! I love having my little kicking baby with me all the time! However I’m really having trouble sleeping, and I can’t wait to finish work now, 12hr shifts on my feet are slowly killing me!

I know what you mean about the sleeping (or lack thereof!) I cannot get comfy, I end up with a couple of pillows and most of the duvet between my legs, and then as soon as I’m almost comfy I need to pee! Do your hips hurt from laying on your sides most of the night? I also feel extremely out of shape lol as my abs seem to have fizzled away to nothing. I get breathless walking upstairs! But I catch myself in the mirror and despite being mega overweight to start with, I definitely look prego now and I love it!

I'm 28+1 and feel like I've been pregnant forever, let alone having 3 months left! Argh!

Here's to the next 3 months flying by.

Sorry Oyster that made me lol... I suspect in about 6 weeks I’ll be saying the same thing! I just walked about 500 yards and I’m so out of breath you’d think I’d just run a half marathon. How are we supposed to exercise when we can’t get our breath doing basic stuff?

I’m 27 weeks today. Also out of breath walking up stairs & get a stitch when I walk! Otherwise feeling pretty good. Having to wee in the night is a pain!
Good luck Oysterbabe not long to go!!!
