Hello Third Trimester!

Welcome to the third trimester!  It's been a less than wonderful introduction but I am pretty excited that we're on the downhill slope of this crazy journey.  So far this week though I've started with blood tests for glucose levels, a Rhogan shot, more Braxton Hicks and finally a diagnosis for the 'not normal' pain I've been feeling in my hips/pelvis.  After yet another doctor ignored me and said it was just ligament pain I went to a chiropractor and he quickly noticed that because of all that ligament loosening going on my pelvis had slipped over an inch!  He did a quick adjustment on me and while my muscles/ligaments are still sore from being stretched at least I think I'm on the 'normal pain' train.  I knew that most pregnant women did not dislocate their hips rolling over in bed or when bending over.  I feel so relieved!

Other than the ignoring of my pain complaint I'm super happy with the new doctors office. They are very friendly and explain everything they are doing upfront, they laid out how my insurance works and they gave me some neat magazines (with fetal pictures through ultrasound of each stage).  They in general just seem to be happier about birth than the other place, and since I'm one that believes it's not a DISEASE I'm way more on board with these guys. Transferring thank goodness, was not difficult.

Anybody watching GLEE? I love this show!  I love musicals in general but this is a quirky mash-up (great word from the show) of teenage drama, funny comedy and amazing musical. I like nearly all the characters or at least care about what happens to them.  Catch it on tv if you can.

Yesterday was a fun day. CK had to help his mom sight in her rifles for her upcoming deer hunt but he also brought along a .45 for me to shoot (at cans), I felt gangsta lol but it was kinda fun. Poor baby doesn't like guns either (maybe it's just the noise because he ran from chainsaws too)

Last story before this gets too long but I love my adopted kitty Sugar! I'll need to upload the photo when my hunter comes home with our camera but Sugar loves laying on my belly and cuddling. She'll even wrap her little paws around any part of me she can get, what a snuggle bug! Anyway she also has a really loud purr. Well she was snuggling with the belly last night and purring really loud, the baby thought she must be playing with him so he started nudging her face where it was up against my tummy. She tolerated it for a little while then looked up at me and rolled her eyes. Oh I laughed so hard and almost cried with the sweetness of it all!  My sweet kitty and baby.
