32 Weeks

How far along? 32 Weeks
Total weight gain: you know what?? Still at 34 lbs. I've gained NOTHING over the past week. I feel i could cry i'm so happy!
Maternity clothes? Yes. But the shirt in this pic is not maternity. (I don't know why i always feel the need to point these things out, but i do. So there.)
Stretch marks? Yes.
Sleep: Okay, at this point i feel like sleep has gone out the window. I can't count anymore how many times i'm awake at night, trying to flip over from side to side. Do you all know how HUGE of an ordeal that is? Just to turn over? I have a hunch i've even been interrupting Aaron's sleep because i haven't heard him snore for an entire week. Poor guy. No wait, poor us!
Best moment this week: Just happy to be sloooowly making progress on a lot of different things, including the babe's room. I think i've about successfully gone thru 90% of every drawer & closet in the house, EVERY drawer! Organize, throw away, organize, throw away, repeat repeat. I.LOVE.IT!
Miss Anything? Let's just go for the whole sha-bang and say i miss it all. I remember getting to this point with Emelyne, when i honestly can't remember what it feels like to be normal. In any way, shape or form. Normalacy, what IS it???
Movement: Still yes, constant. It's more of him turning from side to side i think. No real jabs. He likes to try to settle under either of my rib cages but i usually refuse to let him and push on his little squishy butt til he moves down. And he pretty consistently gets the hiccups twice a day at about the same time.
Food cravings: Nope
Anything making you queasy or sick: What doesn't some days? I still feel nausea about 40% of the day.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: SO.MUCH hip & mid back pain! Some rib pain, still some cramps, still some braxton hicks.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy but getting anxious!
Looking forward to: Lining up some maternity pics! It's about that time, and the time will soon pass. I better get on that.


So as you can see, Emelyne wanted to get in on the pic this week, though she looks less than thrilled about it, it was her choice. I honestly can't believe i am in my 33rd week now, it has gone by so SLOW. Yep i said slow. But even so, it's crazy that we are to this point already, and in anywhere from 5-7 weeks we will be a family of 4. (Only 4 weeks if he comes as early as Emelyne, let's hope that doesn't happen. Yikes!) I definitely feel the panic setting in. There is SO much to do and SO little time now. And half the days i don't feel well enough to do much of anything other than maintain a semi-clean house, let alone anything extra. And now most every week has a day filled up with some kind of appointment which requires a trek in to Bismarck that takes up most of the day. Sure the world will not fall apart if not everything gets done, realistically i know that. But for those of you who really know me, you know that it is NOT an option to not get everything done in time. So think happy, positive thoughts for me! We're counting down, 48 days or less people!!!
