91 days to go?! Yikes! That snuck up on me! This is my last week in the 2nd trimester!
I have noticed my sleep patterns have started to change (a norm for me in later pregnancy). I am easily awakened at night, and will often have trouble falling back asleep. Many women talk about how little sleep they get in the newborn stage, but for me, the newborn stage is a piece of cake compared to the final month or so of pregnancy. I think God likes to over-prepare me.
Baby has taken on some definite sleep/awake patterns that have been fun to take note of. I will often lie in bed in the morning just to snag a few extra moments with my little “kickapoo” as he/she wakes up and wiggles and kicks.
My daughter snapped this photo with my phone last night after church so I’d have something to share with you today. This is another shirt from ThredUP. This is one of my daughter’s favorites on me. I have to agree. The cowl neck and flowey sleeves are so feminine and soft. (Read more about where I’m finding maternity clothes.) And yes, that is one of my new half tees from Deborah & Co. {affiliate links}

I SO hear you Amy 🙂
sleep is so much sweeter in the newborn stage (I sleep like a rock between feedings) compared to being awake for hours at night during the 3rd trimester…
and this happened for all pregnancies too.
Kathryn says
Amy, you look ravishing and are the picture of beauty!
I love reading your pregnancy updates; I am so excited for you!
I didn’t get a chance to comment last week. It is amazing how quickly your pregnancy is progressing! Something about 27 weeks sounds SO much further than 26 weeks!
I LOVE that pic of you. The shirt is beautiful and that’s a great color on you! I had never heard of threadup, but I’ve browsed a little bit and that’ll be the next online place I’ll shop when I bite the bullet and buy new clothes. (I’ve been wishing to buy a smaller size (by a few numbers, lol) but the scale isn’t following!)
Praying that you will be able to have good rest. I know you mentioned magnesium, do you take it before bed? That seemed to help me a bit.
Big hugs from Michigan!
Amy says
Thank you, Kathryn. 🙂 I have not been as regular with the magnesium as I need to be. But, yes, I do take it before bed. I doesn’t stop me from waking up and feeling wide awake at 4:30 am, but usually, an hour or so later, I can go back to sleep.

You look beautiful!!
Karyn says
Wow, you look great. I love those sleeves – I hate the way shirts nowadays, even maternity shirts, feel so tight. That looks lovely and feminine.
