32 Weeks

How far along? 32 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: +5 pounds

       Current Weight:  173

Maternity clothes? Yes. I prefer them over my regular clothes. They’re so comfortable. Although I am missing my pre-pregnancy jeans 

Stretch marks? Yes. Near my belly button 

Sleep: not good. I’ve said this before but if I’m going to be awake in the middle of the night, I’d rather be holding a baby 

Best moment this week: nesting has made me be a cleaning monster. So I’m enjoying a clean house  

Miss Anything? Sleeping on my back. This is getting rough. I find myself dreaming about sleeping on my back. 

Movement: lots but not all the time. When she’s active, she’s active. Like my whole belly moves. There’s not in between. It’s either very active or not at all  

Food cravings: I’ve gotten back into not craving anything. And being a little more queasy than normal.

Have you started to show yet: yes. I’ve gotten a lot bigger in just two weeks

Gender: girl!

Labor Signs: nope. But Braxton Hicks are getting more common 

Belly Button in or out? It honestly depends on the day but 80% of the time it’s out. And it hurts when it’s out 

Wedding rings on or off? On if I remember to put them on lol 

Happy or Moody most of the time: moody

Looking forward to: baby shower. Seeing family and friends that I haven’t seen in a while due to covid. I’m also really looking forward to packing our birth center bags

30 weeks

Today I had a midwife appointment in person in Indy. So I made a day of it and went to the cutco store to get my knives sharpened. I bought them almost 8 years ago and they’ve never been sharpened 🤦🏼‍♀️. After that I went to my appointment. Today was a big day. I had to do my glucose test and get the rhogram shot since my blood type is A-. We did a test in November that showed that Rosadella’s blood type was A+ which means Nick is something that is positive. Neither was as bad as people made them out to be. The glucose drink I had was the orange one and it tasted like Sunkist without the carbonation. The hardest part was that it was cold. I hate cold drinks so it was really hard for me to drink all of it cause it was so cold. The shot felt like touching nettles. It wasn’t bad at all. They also took blood for labs but I’m pretty certain everything will show up fine. Rosadella is head down and I’m measuring 31 weeks in size which they said was normal. I feel like my belly really grew this week. I was shocked when I compared today’s picture to last weeks. 

Hopefully we have less than 10 weeks before we meet her. Ever since I got pregnant, I feel really strongly that she’ll be here April 21. So we’ll see!
