28 Weeks!!

I have made it to 28 weeks!! I can't believe how fast the time is going. This whole pregnancy thing has been a breeze so far, and even though it is still going well, I am beginning to have the normal pregnancy discomforts.

BEFORE:

I have cankles. Yes...cankles. They seem to really appear at night after a long day of work, with my feet being stuck inside laced tennis shoes. I try to elevate them at lunch, and at night, and in the morning, they generally look better.

AFTER:

My carpal tunnel syndrome is acting up BIG TIME. I already have carpal tunnel in my right wrist, because of my job, but being pregnant has aggravated it. My fingers used to go numb every once in awhile, while working (which can be quite difficult and a problem when trying to hold sharp instruments!), but now they go numb with practically every patient, when I am putting on makeup, and even when I am driving!!

I am also finding it hard and awkward to put on pants, and to tie my shoes. Bending down in general has become a chore.

But I can't wait to meet my little one! I am in my 3rd trimester, and I can't wait to be a mom!
