Bump update - 32 weeks

32 weeks

How far along? 32 Weeks.

Baby Bump? In the last week I have gotten the following comments. “You look SO pregnant” “You look like you are ready to pop” “Can I touch it?” I don’t feel like I look like I’m “ready to pop” but I guess some people feel that way.

Maternity Clothes? I don’t know why I waited so long to buy any maternity clothes. They are so much more comfortable than anything else.

Best moment this week:  We had our first baby shower. It was so exciting! I can’t believe how many people in Scott’s dental class are excited about us having a little one. We got lots of gifts and well wishes. It was great. We are definitely getting more anxious for this girl to get here.

Belly Button in or out: In.

Miss anything?  Having energy. The last couple weeks have been rough. I always feel like I need a nap (or two) but I can’t take one since I work all day.

Food cravings: Nothing new this week, I just have a sweet tooth.   

Happy or moody most of the time: I think that the whole crazy, irrational, emotional pregnant lady side is starting to come out. I don’t know where it is coming from but I am more emotional now than I ever have been in my life.

Gender: BABY GIRL! 

Symptoms: A little bit of nausea every once in a while, occasional heartburn, crazy dreams(every night), some back pain, some insomnia, and a LOT of movement.

Sleep: I feel like I need it all the time, but then I don’t fall asleep very easily.

This week baby is the size of: a bok choy… I’m not sure what that is. She is about 16.7 inches long and weighs around 4lbs.

I guess this is a Bok Choy. Who knew?

Baby’s development this week: She will be sleeping more now, but also moving more… however that works.

New Baby Items: We got a few new outfits, some binkies, burp cloths, towels, mittens, washcloths, diapers, picture frames, infant toothpaste, gift cards, and other fun things at the shower. We feel so blessed.

Looking forward to: Hanging up our pictures in the nursery. I can’t wait for everything to be all ready for this little one to come.

Anything Else Going on: Not really, Scott is back in school. This past week hasn’t been too bad, but it’s supposed to get a lot harder really soon.

A couple more people have told me that they are pregnant, and we are absolutely thrilled for the parents. I don’t think any of them have publicly announced so I will wait before I mention any names.
