Body Changes:
I've definitely noticed an increase in mucus. Little girl is also starting to move around a lot more. She's growing stronger each day and I can definitely feel little feet kicking me up near my ribs. It seemed like for awhile, she was laying horizontally, but she's definitely shifted to vertical. My ankles and feet have started to swell again over the last couple of days. Thankfully I have acupuncture again on Thursday. My lower back has also been pretty tight and sore. (Chiro on Friday.) I've felt some quick, but fairly intense pressure in my low abdomen, Braxton Hicks? Slight panic is setting in now that we're nearing the end. Trying to stay ahead with completing little things each week.
Worst Moment this Week:
Glucose test. (Thankfully I passed though!)
