Here is my third and last pregnancy vlog! I am currently approaching the last leg of this journey and as much as I appreciate it & do love being pregnant, I'm ready for it to be over! Being that I got pregnant in March 2016, miscarried in May and then found out I was pregnant again in July this means that I feel like I've literally spent the last year pregnant! It's been a tough old time with lots of highs & lows but I think I'm ready to be done. Having said that I do still enjoy carrying babies and I'm not going to lie, I have been lucky enough to remain low-risk every pregnancy with very minimal symptoms. In other words, things could be a lot worse! But every woman who has experienced this knows that the last few weeks are the slowest, longest and probably the hardest! Here are a few of the symptoms I've been experiencing this trimester:
- bleeding gums
- heartburn (really bad!)
- leg cramps
- insomnia
- shortness of breath
- change in hair type
I go into more detail on each symptom in my vlog, and also show you the belly shot at the end as well as talk about weight gain, stretch marks and all the fun stuff that goes along with pregnancy! :) Hope you enjoy! If you have any questions, just leave them down below and I will try to answer them!
I love you so much! You are gorgeous and a huge inspiration to me. I don't understand how someone can look that amazing in the end of their third trimester. Love you <3
ReplyDeleteI really admire the fact that you put yourself and your family out into the world like this with the blog posts and vlogs. My question is: What pushes you to do this everyday with all the hardships that you have gone through?
ReplyDeleteThis blog and your YouTube channels have helped me through so much and it would mean so much for what you think.
Yay! Really missed your blogposts and videos Anna! Can't wait to watch the video! Love you! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteHeartburn is the one symptom that I remember vividly from my 2 pregnancies because it's so annoying and uncomfortable. I remember I used to sleep with two or three pillows to stop stomach acids from going the wrong way.

Hi Anna!
ReplyDeleteI also wrote this on your Youtube channel, but I want to post it here too...
For many people actually standing up and stretching the muscle helps with the crumps...it definitely helps me :) You just have to swallow the pain at the moment of standing up on the leg and then it goes away much faster...
And also about your hair...I have some experience with bad hair while travelling to different cities and I discovered that the problem was actually with the water there...So try wait and wash it a few times again at home where your hair is used to the water and see if that helps :)
I had the oily hair situation when I was pregnant with my son! I had it early on, probably towards the start to middle of my second trimester. I had to stop using conditioner for a while but it went away after about 2-3 weeks and never reoccurred. I think it was just hormones because it never came back and so far I'm 17 weeks into my second pregnancy and it hasn't happened again. It was such an odd symptom and none of my friends had ever had it happen to them.
ReplyDeleteHi Anna,
ReplyDeleteJust wondering: Is it possible to have same "pregnancy path?" I've got pregnant on March 2016 also, miscarried on may 25:-( And got sucsesfully pregnant in July 2017. Now waiting for my lovely baby in April/May. Also it's my third baby:-) good lack to us!!! Stay healthy and beautiful!
Good luck Anna, Wishing you all the family the best. I wish I looked that good when i was pregnant lol, your glowing :)
ReplyDeleteTry a clarifying shampoo Anna! The greasy feel is due to the buildup of silicone and other products found in shampoo. I've experienced it before too, ive tried loads of ways getting rid of it - dishwashing liquid and even Listerine! But clarifying shampoo works best. Its good to use a clarifying shampoo once in awhile.
ReplyDeleteHi Anna
ReplyDeleteYou should use Gaviscon instead of Rennies. It lasts longer as it suppresses the stomach acid not just the heartburn symptoms. It's safe to use during pregnancy but you can check with the pharmacist.
It works a treat.
A lovely video Anna I really enjoyed watching it :):) :):) I like watching your vlogs and your a really nice family 😀🐶❤️ You could try using baking soda as shampoo and apple cider vinegar as a conditioner and Anna is very pretty :):) :):)
ReplyDeleteAnna great video I love everyone you make as far as people who have negative things to say don't listen to them your one of the most positive people I've ever seen and I can't believe you and Jonathan little girl will be here when she gets here and I understand completely why you guys chose to keep it private keep making great videos because I'm going to keep watching them they bring a smile to my face every time and so do your snapchats and the vlogs
ReplyDeleteLoved watching this! I'm not going to get pregnant anytime soon, but you make me feel so excited to have kids one day! Love you, Anna! Good luck, and I hope and pray you get at least one good night's sleep! :)
