Pregnancy by the Numbers (Welcome to the 3rd Trimester)
As I say goodbye to the 2nd Trimester this week, I thought now would be a nice time for a little pregnancy reflection. If I were a cool graphic designer, like my sister, I would have made this into a hip info-graphic (challenge extended, Christina), but at the very least, I thought the best way to summarize the last 27 weeks would be a look at the stats.
3 - pregnancy books
6 - ultrasound tests
22 - pounds gained so far
37 - inches around my belly
18 - week when I first felt her kicking around
38 - number of times she's kicked me in the last hour
20 - week that I finally got over morning sickness
1 - number of times I barfed in my car (into an airline barf bag, thank you Phil)
3 - number of times I yaked at my desk at work
24 - week that I got my first Braxton Hicks Contractions
1 - pair of maternity jeans purchased (and lots of great borrowed goods)
4 - baby items I compulsively bought at the recent H&M sale
6 - Bradley Method Classes (6 more to go!) to train us for a natural birth
3 - French classes so I'll understand Phil when he speaks to the baby (Ma fille est belle!)
1 - universal Amazon registry (lets you link to other web sites - so cool!)
