Why Hello 3rd Trimester!

FINALLY! I am thisclose to being done with this pregnancy. Let me just say that if I ever mention another kid, remind me of these blog posts. I do not like being pregnant anymore. It is not fun. First, I was sick for the first 18+ weeks. Then, I started to feel better when Vertigo set in. Let's not forget the round ligament pains (which hurt like a beast), the reflux/heartburn, the major mood swings, the short fuse and sciatic pain. Oh but it does get better, I am now experiencing the joys of constant bladder pressure and braxton hicks.

And don't tell me that my child will hate me for saying it. Just because I dislike pregnancy doesn't mean I dislike my baby. I love him, I cannot WAIT to meet him. It just means that I probably won't go through all of this again... While you may think us having another baby would be a great idea, you're not me nor are you in my body, so don't even think about subtly hinting that I should have another. You could get kicked. It also means that you should be very careful about the things you say in my presence. I'm not lying about the short fuse and mood swings. Nathan receives the brunt of my outbursts, but that doesn't mean you're safe...

Anyway, at 27 weeks and 1 day, my belly looks like this:

I fully understand that I sound like the meanest person ever. I maintain that I'm not being mean, I'm being hormonal and moody and I am finally not that afraid of standing up for myself.
