Week 32
How far along: 32 weeks
Baby’s size: Jicama – Your baby is taking up more and more space in your uterus and weighs as much as a large jicama — about 3.75 pounds. (Length: about 16.75 inches, head to heel.)
Sleep: I have my ups and downs. Some nights I sleep really well and others I don’t sleep well at night but I take naps for hours throughout the day. Some days it takes me back to my first trimester when I was exhausted all the time.
Maternity Clothes: Yep. Some of my shirts are starting to get a little short, so I don’t know what I am going to do if my belly grows much more (which is highly likely)
Food Cravings: None this week. I have actually been having a hard time deciding on what to eat.
Food Aversions: Extra spicy. It is starting to get better where I can eat the occasional medium spice, but not yet back to the extent I was beforehand.
Symptoms I have: Having a hard time tying my shoes and putting on socks. I get heartburn occasionally, but Papaya enzymes help with that.
Doctor’s Appointment: Tomorrow afternoon we have our first appointment here in Seattle.
Movement: All the time. I was actually kept up the other night by EJ’s hiccups. It was a different feeling like a really strong heartbeat from the outside.
Belly Button: The inner part is starting to peak and is slowly becoming level.
Gender: Boy!!
What I’m looking forward to: Hearing EJ’s heartbeat tomorrow. Moving into our new place and nesting. And finally, EJ’s birth in about 8 weeks. I am really excited to be this close to the end.
What I miss: All of our stuff. I am so incredibly ready to be settling into a new home and then bringing our kitties home.
