Third Trimester funs

Thankfully the results of the glucose test for identifying gestational diabetes were fine and I can continue with my sugar craving! Although I think it is in my head and I can go without it! For now I crave Pomegranate!
Last weekend Pishi and I were invited to one our friend's house. They have also invited another friend and both of them have a 7 month old babies. Surprisingly, I found them not too heavy and hopefully I can hold my own when she reaches that age! They were too cute. But I can see how their lives is absolutely revolves over their babies and we can't even complete a conversation!

Last weekend we also attended the Lamaze classes and we both found valuable information. Although knowledge is power, I still don't know if I will go with a medicated birth or not. I guess, I have to see how the labour goes. Most of my friends swear by Epidural but I do have friends that did it without not by choice but pure fact that by the time they wanted it, it was too late and the baby was ready to pop out! Aside from that, I hear a lot of mothers having difficulty with breast feeding. It's good to know about the breast feeding clinics and the lactation specialists that can help out.

Our baby girl is growing consistently. She is about the size that she should be as I was a bit worried that she might be smaller as everyone who sees me, says: Oh you haven't gotten that big. That got me thinking that may be she is might be smaller than normal but thankfully she is the right size and she already at week 30th has found her way out! Although I know she will moving around till she gets too big to do so but it's good that she is not clueless!

She responses very well to piano notes. Every time I want to feel her kick, its enough to play a few notes and she shows her joy! Definitely I will start her on music lessons.
We have noticed that she responds to notes that clear and not complicated. Although I don't think she appreciated the music and gun shouts of the James Bond movie we watched last night in the movie theater!

Her bed and drawer is ready but since we don't have space yet, we decided to leave it with the warehouse until her room is ready. I think I am in a nesting period, where like birds I am trying to make things ready for her arrival!

I have conflicting feelings though about her birth. At times, I can't wait to see her and other times, I think how our life would be different and makes me want to gain as much relaxation now as possible! I know I have become spoiled but I really want to go on another get a way before she with us, it mostly would be a road trip to somewhere close but not sure where yet.
