How Far Along: 32 weeks
Total Weight Gain: up 17 pounds. I am consistently gaining a pound a week right now. Trying to focus on a healthy baby and mom rather than that number...
Cravings: Sugar. I have
a major sweet tooth. I’m trying so hard
to keep this in check, but it is so hard!
The other thing I can’t get enough of is ice. I love crushed ice and I’m sure my dentist
would not be happy, but I am crunching it around the clock.
Symptoms: Still getting
leg and feet cramps. I've started getting braxton hicks contrations every once in a while. It is mostly when I've been standing or walking for long periods of time. I never had this with Breanna, so it's a new experience. They hurt but don't last long. I’m also getting super cranky and my patience
is at an all time low. I don’t know if
it’s because of hormones, lack of sleep, or a combination of both but I have to
bite my tongue a lot!
Sleep: If it’s
possible, my sleep has gotten even worse over the last week. I am waking constantly and my hips are
incredibly sore.
Movement: Kaitlyn is
still very active. Despite all the
negative stuff, when I feel her move none of that other stuff matters. It sounds so cliché, but I am already so in
love with her. She has also started
getting hiccups at least once a day, but often more. Breanna did this too, and it’s such an odd
feeling. I’m told that it is a good sign
of the baby learning and practicing breathing.
What I’m Looking Forward
To:
I am starting to really get anxious about her arrival. My mom got her plane ticket, which makes it
seem really close and real!
Anything Else: My glucose test went well, so I’m glad I don’t have
to worry about that! I had a doctor’s
appointment this morning, which went great. My belly is measuring on track and her heart was around 130 BPMs. All is well, and I am incredibly thankful for that!
