I've been feeling so tired lately. I really need to rest more. My ankles are starting to swell.. ugh! My next ultrasound is on 8/22 so I'm excited about that :) We have a lot going on this month. We're taking a baby care basics class on 8/13 and a Childbirth prep class on 8/31. We'll be very busy this month!
So, the nursery is painted.. we just have to touch up a few things. I painted the mouldings so we're hopefully going to install them this weekend. After that, we just need to steam clean the carpet and then we can set up the crib! yay :) I can't wait!
According to babycenter.com:
By now, your baby weighs 3 3/4 pounds (about the size of a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
Baby is the size of a squash (thebump.com):
How far along? 32 weeks
Total weight gain: 33 lbs
Total weight gain: 33 lbs
Maternity
clothes? maternity pants and tops.
Sleep: getting worse lately.. waking up 2-4 times per night.. just overheated.
Miss Anything? just being able to do things I used to be able to do without struggling! Can't really bend over anymore.
Movement: All the time. It hurts sometimes when baby pokes me in the ribs.
Food cravings: I always want sweets.. don't know if I'd call it a craving, though.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Labor Signs: no
Symptoms: acid reflux everyday, ankle swelling, exhaustion, headache, backache, occasional round ligament pain, right knee numbness/nerve problems
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? on.. my wedding ring is too big for me anyway, so I don't think I'll ever have to take it off!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Depends on the day and how I'm feeling.
Looking forward to: finishing the nursery, setting up the crib & changing table :)
