Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 32 weeks, holy cow! The weekly countdown is into single digits; 8 left! !
Size of baby: a honey dew: almost 17" and about 3.75 lbs. She has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz) !!
Weight change: somehow my count is different from the midwives... they say +23 so I'm going with that. ... sounds much better than reality. ;) I did officially break the 200 threshold last week. Oof.
Maternity Clothes: Unless I want my belly to hang out! ;)
Movement: 2-3 weeks ago I waa getting karate chopped like mad! Sometimes so hard it would wake me up or seriously scare the crap outta me. I still get that, but this week ol girl's moving has turned more... graceful I guess. I can tell she's wriggling and not just kicking a puncging bag.
Sleep: apparently I snore! Poor J... ;/
Symptoms: my ligaments have poor me in the hurt locker. Some days it hurts to out my pants on or get in the car! I also feel my SI joint clicking when i walk. I got a yoga ball & that thing has saved my spine though. I can sit for more than 15 mins at a time!
What I miss: laying on the couch. Can't take it. Matter of fact, the couch in general is one big evil piece of furniture. Sitting hurts, too. Too squish.
Cravings: cinnamon rolls!
Aversions: not food.... though I have been feeling more nauseated lately.
Innie or outie: Innie, barely. I might get lucky with an innie the whole time because of the 'overflap'. Though I feel it protrude when I cough.... haha. J is afraid to touch my belly button. I think he thinks it might explode.
Favorite Moment This Week: nesting has kicked in! I went shipping to stock up on household supplies. Also spent the weekend making hair bows, then arranging them by color. wow.
Worst Moment This Week: met with our doula. ... holy crap that birth thing is coming!
Looking Forward To: Have an appt tomorrow and maternity pics on Saturday!
Daddy update: daddy's hanging in there:) he's been super sweet and taking very good care of baby-mama! ♥
