32 Weeks
And yet again, another apology! :( Sorry again that I am so behind on updates!
Between week 29 & week 32 so much has happened!
On top of working 40 hours a week, maintaining our household and my many doctors appointments, one of my best friends had her baby girl at 36 weeks, I had my baby shower AND we had our maternity pictures taken! SO many great moments. My baby shower was beyond amazing! I can't begin to thank everyone enough! I'm slowly working on editing all 600 pictures so I can finish the post!
Last but not least, Baby Cal was perfect today at our appointment!!!
My ultrasounds are every 2 weeks now, along with NST fetal monitoring every Tuesday/Friday.
Today Cal weighed a whooping 4lbs3oz!!!
HOLY HUGE!
With Cal's size & my size, my doctor thinks 38 weeks sounds like a perfect time to have a baby!!! His head is still measuring a little big, and he thinks my body won't make it to 40 weeks anyway. I SERIOUSLY hope he's right!
The most amazing part of having Cal at 38 weeks would be if he arrived on August 28th.
August 28th, 2012 was the due date of our last pregnancy with a little girl.
We would be so overwhelmed to meet him on that day!
Guess we'll have to wait & see!
How far along: 32 weeks people!
Weight gain: 21 lbs gained. At 138. Started 117lbs. (Boooo!)
Maternity clothes: A little bit of anything that fits at this point. Mostly maxi skirts this week... Kinda loath getting dressed & wearing the same stuff over again!
Stretch marks: Maybe ONE! Kinda thinking the little mark on my belly button might be a stretch mark but it's been there for weeks. My brown line is getting darker :'(
Belly button in or out: In :) Slowly working on going flat.
Sleep: Hmm... Sleep. I can sleep. I love to sleep. But my belly is seriously getting too heavy to move back & forth when I toss & turn! Takes so much effort :(
Best moment this week: Just spending time with Eric! <3 He is trying to work a ton of overtime so we can afford my pay cut with disability. So the few moments he is home are the best! Such a good man working so hard!
Movement: My son is insane! He moves all day & night long. I don't think he ever sleeps!
Cravings: Everything! I love to eat anything! :( I could eat all day long... Horrible.
Queasy or sick: Yes! I had horrible shakes with hot flashes this week. The kind where you feel like you're going to pass out. Not my favorite!
Symptoms: Oh you know! Extreme exhaustion, aches & pains aaaand a few gross ones I promise to talk about later! :)
Looking forward to: Not working! Lol And meeting my prince!
FEARS: Honestly, I am officially very fearful to be a new mom & family! Eric & I have been solo for 11 years doing whatever we what, whenever we want. Nervous for our new life & new rolls, but very excited too :)
His favorite place to cuddle, my right quadrant. He's head down, with his booty to the right and his legs stretchy all the way across into my left ribs.
BELLY! The brown line from my belly button going down is getting darker. I always thought it would be a straight line. Clearly, it's not! The red dot above belly button is from my piercing.
A sneak peak at Cal's nursery. I spent HOURS in here this past week washing every item he owns and organizing every inch. Still a little ways to go & a couple missing items. Haven't done any decorations yet!
Random pictures & mirror for our planned collage. Trying to collect all of the colors we are using. Looks pretty bad in this picture! lol Better in person.
Little Bandy gets pretty jealous of my body pillow! He manages to squeeze in between us. His head is resting on my knee and he's aiming his butt in my face of course.
Ebs & Bandy loving Cal <3
Probably the best part of being pregnant! Our daily belly love sessions!xoxo
Working on my baby shower post now! It will be up tonight :)
