You know you're in your 3rd trimester when....

1. Averaging 4 hours of sleep a night is a GOOD thing.....
2. You get up to go to the bathroom roughly 5 to 10 times a night....true story for me.....
3. You feel hungry, have no clue what you want to eat, and then when you do eat, you feel sick right after....
4. You go to make Crystal Light and only use an " on the go" packet for a 2qt pitcher, and wonder why your 2 year old says " yucky" when he likes Crystal light, only to drink some this morning and almost puke and figure out what was so wrong with it yesterday....
5. After being on my feet for an hour, I feel like I have walked a 5K
6. If I stay in one position too long on the couch, I seriously can't move...my body gets too stiff...
7. I feel fat, fat, fat....
8. I am worrying constantly about making sure I can get everything done before the baby comes, then worry about how I am going to manage everything after he comes....
9. Driving long distances is killer on my hips and legs....
10. I have begun to start day dreaming what I will hopefully look like by fall....
11. I am drinking lots and lots of water, I feel thirsty all the time...
12. I wake up once every night with my stomach growling at me, like I haven't eaten anything all day...
13. I am having the wierdest dreams these days...
14. I just wrote 12 again after I wrote 13.....
15. My headaches are getting worse....
16. It's hard to breathe evenly a lot of the time....
17. My hips are barely functional.....I have to switch sides that I am laying on about every hour, part of what keeps me up all night...
18. This baby likes to dig his cute little feet right up under my rib cage and push....I swear he will be longer than Karson was....
19. I am tired...so..so...tired...all....the....time...
20. I am excited, nervous, anxious, happy, worried, curious and all sorts of things about this baby!

Totally true!!! Many of those are true for me and I am in my second trimester. Especially the figuring out what to eat and then you eat it and it makes you sick. At least you are almost there. I am only half way. I am trying to enjoy it, it may be my last.
