32 Weeks -8 Weeks to go!!



How Far Along: 31 Weeks 6 Days
Total Weight Gain: 22 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Mostly
Stretch Marks: None. Fingers still crossed.
Sleep: Spotty. Sometimes I sleep good, other times I do not.
Best Moment This Week: All the movement.
Miss Anything: Being able to do things around the house. This sitting on the couch all evening thing is for the birds. Not my idea of fun! haha! But necessary to make sure baby stays in there a little longer!
Movement: So much movement! It's so neat to just feel baby roll across my stomach. I'm figuring by now that baby is officially in the 'fetal' position and has limited moving space.
Food Cravings: Ice Cream. Butter Pecan to be exact. Those ice cream sandwiches Josh got weren't too bad either :O)
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Nope. The thought of eating meat makes my cringe, but I can handle eating once it's cooked and in my face.
Gender: Still do not know! I say a boy, Josh says it's a girl. We shall see in approx. 8 weeks!
Labor Signs: A couple Braxton Hick (practice) contractions. But I don't think they were anything to worry about.
Symptoms: Waddling like a duck/penguin, feeling a bit more tired, yesterday I was hurting so bad in my pelvis, lower stomach and back that I could barely walk (that was fun), I'm also hurting in my pelvis again today. I've really enjoyed being pregnant so far, and the only thing making me not like it is the pain in my pelvis. I think it's God's way of telling me I need to listen to my doctor and rest! I'm listening!
Belly Button In or Out: Still half and half. It's really creepy looking.
Wedding Rings On or Off: On, but Josh asked me to stop wearing them just in case my hands swell and they get stuck. I just can't bring myself not to wear them yet.
Happy or Moody Most of the Time:  Happy. Getting excited/nervous about the arrival of baby Keown. The anticipation of knowing if baby is a boy or girl is starting to get to me!
Looking Forward too: Getting the nursery done this weekend. Josh is going to carry everything upstairs into the room this weekend and I am going to sit in the rocking chair and sort things. And also on his agenda is getting the swing put together! He'd better get going, cause he has a changing table on the way the is going to require being put together as well!


Other News:
Went to the doctor on Tuesday. Everything is still good. Well, by good I mean, hasn't changed. I am not dialating any but my cervix is still short. So we are just still seeing the doctor twice a week. I go again today to see her. Only two more weeks until we get to our goal of 34 weeks. (My goal is 36-37 weeks but dr said 34 weeks would be ok too). Will keep you posted!
