Every day my due date comes closer. I am surprisingly nervous. I don't typically get nervous but this small person's constant kicking is reminding me that I am about to give birth and become a Mother. I realize that I have done this before, but the sheer awe of it always leaves me with feeling of nervous joy. Being a Mother is one of the most important jobs on Earth and to be blessed again with another person who will call me "Momma" quiets my very soul.
I am entering into my third and final trimester, Monday marks the milestone of my decent to the finish line. My belly grows and squirms and moves, my stomach is always growling and I am eager to meet this person. The boy or girl question has almost made me crazy! So I will leave here a list of symptoms and you can place your bet on whether it is a boy or girl!
1. I am gaining weight in the thighs, bum and tummy. My face and arms are almost the same size as before.
2. I am carrying high.
3. I had no morning sickness at all.
4. I have been very tired throughout my pregnancy.
5. My hair and leg hair has grown at the same rate but my nails are growing very quickly.
6. I do not look as pretty as I am normally.
7. I am craving fruit, which in very normal for me; and sweet junk food, which is totally not normal for me at all.
8. I have had an aversion to meat, I eat it but I would choose anything else to eat first.
9. I have been very thirsty throughout my pregnancy but my blood-sugar level is totally normal.
10. I have been sweatier than normal, especially in the mornings.
Please add any other things you have experienced or heard! I am dying of curiosity!!!!
