32 Weeks!!

How far along: 32 weeks 

Baby is the size of : a large jicama...about 3.75 lbs

Weight gain: 27...as of doctors appt today! To celebrate only a 1 lb gain I think I will make brownies!! :-D

Maternity clothes: yes, yes, yes

Stretch marks: Still just on top and still putting lotion on all the time! I think I'm getting that weird line though. I know it is supposed to be brown but mine is a very light pink. Maybe because I'm so pale hehe 

Sleep: Sleep varies still but aside from the leg cramps and getting up every time I move it's been okay

Best moment this week: The whole week was nice...worked mostly from home so had a lot of time to relax with my feet up and eat dinners with the hubby :-)

Miss anything: sleeping on my stomach, cold weather, and being able to eat anything

Morning sickness:  Felt sick on and off but I think it's from my acid reflux or if I smell something that is too strong

Movement: kicking and moving like crazy! It is really funny to watch my stomach and see her move all over!

Food cravings: Peanut m&m's, dairy queen, and bananas 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Garlic, red meat and shrimp

Have you started to show yet: in epic proportions
Symptoms: lots of acid reflux(have to sleep on two pillows now) and some leg cramps...if I turn on to my back during the night, my legs go numb, and recently have had some shortness of breath when she gets into a funny position.

Gender prediction: little lady

Labor signs: Nope

Belly button in or out: Still in but getting flatter everyday...freaks Ron out which I think is really funny

Wedding rings on or off: On...not tight at all yet. 

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, tired, and emotional...you know the usual :-)

Looking forward to: Putting her room together and decorating and just getting everything ready!! Doctors appt today, so we can hear her heartbeat again :-)
