Third Trimester

third trimester was actually not the worst thing ever. i was able to keep running up until a few weeks before i delivered. i also worked the day before i delivered, but i could only do that because i got a ton of help from my amazing colleagues. around 36 weeks my back started hurting super bad, so i could barely walk, let alone run! while the last two weeks were pretty uncomfortable and painful, i was so excited about this baby arriving that i didn't mind at all. i have posted the pics below.

SuRprIsE BaBy sHoWeR

my amazing friend, bernadette, threw a surprise baby shower for me.  the decorations, food, activities and gifts were perfect.  i was not expecting it at all. somehow it even got arranged so that my patient's were covered for a couple hours, so i could relax. it was great--especially because my back/hips have been making it super hard to walk, and i was going to be admitting a crazy post

-op! i work with the most amazing people ever. i love my hospital.
