Pregnancy Update: 32 Weeks!

I am 32 Weeks now! I thought I would copy an idea of a friend of mine (also named Amy and pregnant with her second) and do a little thing called "Pregnancy Highlights".

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 32 Weeks

I noticed I had the same shirt on when I took a pregnancy pic at 20 weeks. Thought you might want to see the difference!


Size of Baby: According to babycenter.com, it says our baby weighs 3.75 lbs and is about 16.7 inches long. I know Baby Martin weighs more than that because at our 28 week ultrasound she already weighed 3 lbs, 1 oz!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Right...like I'm really going to say how much I've gained! :>) I'm within the normal range of weight gain, so that's all that matters!

Maternity Clothes: That is all I wear now, with the exception of a couple of shirts and some workout pants!

Gender: Hopefully it's still a girl in there! (I'll have them double check at my next ultrasound - 36 wks!) Why would I want to double check? This is why...crazy story - my sister-in-law told me about a friend of hers who just had her third child. They were told the ENTIRE pregnancy it was a girl and when she delivered...it was a BOY! They were devastated! I can't imagine that happening!

Movement: She's definitely a mover and I LOVE feeling her inside of me! I think it's a little less than it was before, because she doesn't have as much room now. She's still more active at night, especially around the 9:00 hour.

Sleep: This is the one thing that I struggle with during pregnancy! I have pretty bad insomnia and just try to get through each night the best I can. Some nights are definitely better than others! I take Tylenol PM but don't take it every night. Let's just say I have a lot of reading material on hand...

What I miss: Sleeping through the night, sleeping on my stomach and caffeinated Diet Coke!

Cravings: I don't really have cravings anymore...I certainly still indulge in the foods I love from time to time!

Symptoms: Mostly tiredness, lower back pain and just dealing with the pokes to the ribs. :>)

Best Moment this week: I went for my 32 week check-up today and heard the heartbeat again. A nice 147! I also just got a call from the doctor's office and our c-section is scheduled for Tuesday, March 8! (For those of you who didn't know, I had a c-section with Max so I'll be having another one.)

Not much longer now...the nesting has definitely begun - I'm always writing down things on my "to-do list" that I want to clean or reorganize before she arrives. I'm also keeping a list of everything I need to get out of storage and items to buy! :>)
