Pregnancy Update

I'm in the last week of the second trimester! I can't believe it's gone by so fast. I'm still feeling pretty good. I'm tired ALL THE TIME and am experiencing heartburn for the first time in my life, but other than that, I'm feeling great. This is the last week of classes of my last semester at BYU. Next week is finals and then I'm officially finished! I can't wait for it all to be over. I'm just so tired.

I had a prenatal Dr. visit yesterday and everything is just about normal. I had the glucose screening test and passed but was low on hemoglobin levels, so they suggested I take an iron supplement. That's probably contributing to my general fatigue.

Here are the latest preggy pics of yours truly:

At 20 weeks.

At 22 weeks. Week 21 has been the only picture we forgot to take.

Week 23. I had a bad hair day. I think i look like a grasshopper.

Week 24.

Week 25 with an even worse hair day. This one is not even grasshopper hair.

Week 26.

Week 27 - this week.

As you can see, I'm getting bigger. I'm getting more and more excited for the little one to come! Peanut is supposed to be the size of a cauliflower now. He kicks a lot and I now get nauseated over almost anything. I almost threw up in primary. One of my 7 year olds picked his nose and I had to run outside with my hand over my mouth and clear my head of the images of his booger on his finger.

I can't eat most meat, which is probably why I'm borderline anemic. Chicken and hamburger taste like cardboard. Turkey tastes like.. on second thought, I'll spare you on what I think turkey tastes like. I do, however, still like chicken nuggets. And the only thing I ever feel like eating are 7-layer burritos from Taco Bell.

I'll try to put up one of those pregnancy tickers soon.
