27 WEEKS PREGGO :-)

Yep I'm now 27 weeks preggo!

I think that means I'm in my 3rd trimester...I have read that I am & I have read that next week I will be. Either way, I'm pretty much there so I'm saying I'm in my 3rd trimester.

Just today I had some of those Braxton Hicks people always talk about. It wasn't too bad, just felt like a period cramp, but maybe more sharper. I was in a bit of pain, I guess more discomfort than anything. But on my lunch break I just went & laid down for an hour & I felt fine after that.

I have a doctor's appointment on Thursday & then after that one I'll be going every 2 weeks. I hate going to the doctors. I always have. I just get super scared that they are going to tell me something with me is wrong. Now that I go to an OB, I'm always fearful they will say something is wrong with the baby. Everyone keeps telling me to relax but I can't help it & from what I hear I'll never stop worrying about her. :-)

I'm not scared to be a parent, I know its going to be hard & scary at time...but I feel the good outweighs the bad. I'm just more scared of screwing up. I want my daughter to just love me & trust me & know that I am always here for her, just like my Mom always made me feel. I'm terrified of screwing that relationship up & whenever I think about (which seems to be a lot lately) I just kinda panic.

I can't believe in about 13 short weeks, I'm finally going to be a Mom! I'm happy, excited, scared, thrilled & a whole bunch of other emotions all rolled into one little person (me). I can't believe she is almost here...I hope she is just as excited to meet me & Joe as we are to meet her.
