3rd Tri-mester begins!!!!!!!

This is how I know that I am in the 3rd tri-mester:

1. It takes a total of 4 pillows (including the one for my head) to help me get comfortable at night in order to sleep. Poor Aaron is so squished on his side of the bed he is going to fall off!

2. My belly now visibly moves and wiggles when little boy moves, kicks, etc. It is quite a sight and just a little freaky.

3. Little boy's kicks and punches sometimes wake me up from sleep.

4. Sitting is uncomfortable, standing is uncomfortable, the only comfortable position is laying on my side on the couch - and that doesn't happen much with Jeremiah running around.

5. Bending over, getting up from the floor, squatting down to pick something up all require almost superhuman effort (and of course Jeremiah insists on everything for him being done on his bed, a mattress on the floor).

Please continue to pray for me. I am dealing with insomnia again (it seems to come every 2 weeks or so) and the change in Aaron's schedule has really tired me out. I am looking forward to the middle of June when his summer class will be done and he will not have to start classes again until September.

The 7th month:

Your baby has grown longer than your uterus, so he has to get into what is called a typical fetal position, with his thighs bent onto his stomach and chest. At the start of this month, your baby's eyelids slowly open and a new sense blossoms. Your baby can open his eyes, and even in your womb, the pupils of his eyes will grower larger or smaller in response to changes in brightness. On the eyelids, lashes are starting to grow.

Your baby's skin is less wrinkled now as fat begins to fill out his contours. His body is growing faster than his head, but inside his skull, his brain is enlarging rapidly. The brains sections begin to take on their lifetime roles, such a memory and speech.
