32 Weeks

Photobombed by the pooper.

How far along?Β 32 weeks

Total weight gain?Β I haven’t weighed myself since my doctor appointment last week. So in my mind, I’m still only up 23 lbs!

Maternity clothes? I’m debating on the need to buy a few fall maternity clothes (even though it’s 90 degrees outside). However, my more pressing fashion concerns lie with nursing tank tops and nursing bras. Seriously? $20 for a cami with some extra plastic? Ugh.

Stretch marks?Β Nope.

Sleep? Once I get past the insomnia, I’m golden. I also use 6 pillows and take up 3/4 of the bed. Courtny doesn’t need anywhere to sleep, right?

Best moment this week: Seeing Courtny’s face when Baby C kicks him. πŸ™‚

Miss anything? Everything. I miss my normal clothes. I miss beer. I miss being able to sit up from a lying down position on my own. I miss sleeping on my stomach. I miss….pretty much everything at this point.

Movement: You know those dance bags? That’s what it feels like.

Food cravings: Mexican. I may not be able to have a giant Dos Equis with everyone else, but I can still eat a giant burrito!

Anything make you queasy or sick? Eh. Not really.

Gender:Β Girl

Labor signs?: Still having some Braxton Hicks, but no real labor signs.

Symptoms: I’m pretty much just uncomfortable all the time. It’s so much fun.

Belly button in or out?Β Definitely out.

Wedding rings on or off?Β On

Happy or moody? Happy, for the most part. However, whoever gets in my way today is in for it. You’ve been warned.

Looking forward to: Labor Day weekend with NO PLANS. Glorious.


Official countdown: 8 weeks 0 days
