32...err 34 weeks

Last week I had a doctor's appointment and discovered for the second appointment in a row that I was measuring 2 weeks ahead. Supposed to be 32 weeks, but measuring 34 - the big day is coming up F.A.S.T! Too fast - I feel like we are not quite ready yet, but we will be, we have to be. It will be what it is supposed to be.

So here is the 32 week low down. I am not officially jumping on the 34 week bandwagon until my due date is truly changed, but I do feel huge so maybe it is 34 weeks????

Baby, fetus at 32 weeks - BabyCenter
 
 
How far along: 32 weeks

Size of the baby: About the size of a large jicama (learned that this is pronounced like hicama) cauliflower (almost 3.75 lbs and 16.7 inches long)

Total weight gain/lost: Funny my weight seemed to come on quick and now it is slow or non-existent, but I am not complaining.

Maternity clothes: Maternity clothes (and Daddy's pajama pants). It is so difficult to find the perfect maternity pants! Shoes are getting a little more difficult.

Stretch marks: Maybe one or two new ones, but not much!

Best moments of the week: Found out that baby is head down. I know this can change in the next few weeks, but we are headed in the right direction. AND getting closer to a name!!!

Movement: Still super active! Lots of visible movement.

Food cravings: Not really, just enjoying my water.
Gender: It's a BOY! A baby brother!!

Labor signs: Nope, but I think I might be experiencing Braxton-Hicks this time.

Belly Button in or out: Definitely an outie - seriously, I don't think it can stretch any further.

What I miss: Moving at a fast pace, getting up and down quicker, and sleeping on my back.

What I am looking forward to: Getting the nursery done!! Furniture is in place, some decorations on the wall, washing itty bitty clothes, and organizing the household for a new little one. Other than the nursery, I can't wait for Soren and his baby brother to meet and for Mommy and Daddy to snuggle their two beautiful boys!

Weekly wisdom: Continuing to trust God and my body and praying for a great delivery!

Milestones: New hospital tour is complete, registered for breastfeeding class (you can never be prepared too much), and made our last out of town trip before the baby comes.
