I just thought that I'd share my latest photo. I'm at 28 weeks now! Most of the symptoms have subsided, but I am very swollen in my hands, feet, and even my face. My hands and feet are like puffy marshmallows most of the time. Although my pregnancy weight gain is within normal range right now, I feel like I've gained a lot more weight. It is a bit harder to cart myself around now with the big baby bump. Overall it is progressively getting better though, and I'm able to enjoy being pregnant a little more. I know that the last few months of my pregnancy will go by quickly because it doesn't seem like I should be as far along as I am. My teaching semester is over next week, and I really look forward to focusing all of my attention on "nesting" and preparing for the precious little one's arrival.
