Christmas day marked 27 weeks into my pregnancy. A few days prior to that the app I've been using mentioned that I was officially in the THIRD trimester. CRAZY! Time is flying by and there's still quite a bit to do.
Weeks 26 and 27 have been pretty good to me. The biggest issue is that I messed up my right foot a bit. I've got some serious tendonitis and possible bone bruising on the inside of the foot, right below the ankle. It's most likely from the added weight and old shoes. I quickly got a pair of new nimbus trainers and took a few days off like the head trainer at Trinity prescribed. I also got the pregnancy belt I've been meaning to get which is helping to support my lower back and belly while running.

Unfortunately I came back a day or two too soon and the tendonitis is still giving me problems. So I'll be a little wiser this week and take a few more days off. I've added some body pump classes at the gym along with some cross training. I'm modifying weights and activities during the body bump classes to accommodate the pregnancy. I think Nugs is enjoying them. She gives me quite a few kicks on the way home from class. I'm still keeping up with core and myrtl exercises to help with all the loosening of muscles/ligaments/etc.
I've now put on nearly 20 lbs since the beginning, still in the healthy/normal range. I've been sleeping a little better these last few weeks compared to 24-25. I'm still getting up to use the bathroom 1-2 times. I'll also get a little nudge from Jer if I'm sleeping on my back, but I can get to sleep pretty quick after that.
