Thank you!! I will be delivering at the hospital but the midwive will do everything unless, I run into complications. It's been a great experience thus far...she's great , knowledgable and very personable. I recommend a midwive to everyone! They are awesom!

Moriah is a beautiful name! I really loved Mariah if we had a girl but we ended up with a wonderful second baby boy. :-) Since you have a midwife, will you be delivering at home or in a birthing center or hospital? I have several friends who have had fabulous birthing center experiences with their midwives. Hope you have a great weekend!

I noticed an increase need for water when I was pregnant too! But increased thirst could also be a sign of something else==have you been tested for gestational diabetes yet? That is that yucky orange drink you have to drink. Sometimes when your sugars are high you can get a bit thirsty. That being said, it is probably just your body changing and growing with pregnancy. I drank a lot of water and milk during that last trimester! Good luck

Third trimester and THIRSTY!!

Hey Everyone!!

I am now in my third trimester and aside from the occassions aches and growing pain...I've noticed an INCREASED need for water!!! I am drinking it like I've run a marathon in a dry desert! LOL You know what that means....more trips to the bathroom!!! I should seriously start keeping tally of how many bathroom trips I'm making. Just 2 1/2 more months and I get to meet my little stinker.

Anyone else in the same boat?

The joys of pregnancy...
