Second/Third Trimester weeks 23-26.

I can't believe we are in the third trimester already! Today I am 26 weeks. It feels fast and slow, excited and anxious all at the same time. I am so thankful to have a relatively easy pregnancy. My job (teaching 3-year-olds) is very active and demanding, so feeling pretty good has been a huge blessing. The main symptom I have had in the last weeks is swelling- my hands and feet are much bigger than normal. I've also had some backaches, and a few cramps, but not too bad.

The most exciting part is feeling baby move! The kicks are getting harder and more frequent. Baby is still the most active late at night/early in the morning when I'm laying in bed. Two days ago I felt the baby as hard as it's ever been, and I'm pretty sure I felt it do an actual flip!

We start our first childbirth class tomorrow! I'm excited to meet our little one.
