How far along? 32 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 26 lbs!
Maternity clothes? I just ordered a pair of khaki capris for our maternity photo shoot, so although I'm nearing the end of my pregnancy I had to spoil myself with a little something new!
Stretch marks? 8 months & my belly is still stretch mark free!
Sleep: is a luxury that I'm trying to relish while I can. I nap when my days permit and I sleep mostly like a log at night, except for my one late night bathroom run.
Best moment this week: Knowing that Bitsy is getting more crowded and getting to feel her movement more pronounced than ever.
Movement: Some of the movements are stronger than ever, still nothing that has caused me pain. In fact I relish each and every movement because I know they won't last much longer! I'm still convinced this girl is a night owl because she likes to do a lot of her movement late in the evenings when I'm watching TV and waiting for Bud to get home.
Food cravings: still nada.
Gender: It's a Girl!
Labor Signs: I really don't notice anything...
Belly Button in or out? Out..very very out.
What I miss: It's getting more complicated to sit for long periods of time. I can't seem to get comfortable unless I'm laid out on the couch with a pillow for lumbar support. If I lay cocked to the side I need a pillow to rest my belly on.
What I am looking forward to: Bud & I got our garage unit so that means we can get this apartment ready for Bitsy's arrival. Setting up the 2nd bedroom as a guest room and make shift nursery (we will change diapers and clothes in there. Also we will keep all her stuff in there) and we can get the cradle put together in our bedroom! Also we have a doctor's appointment Thursday!
Weekly Wisdom: My advice, stay hydrated. I actually enjoy drinking a giant bottle of ice water. It's refreshing and I haven't had swollen ankles or anything else swollen for that matter! I may not like the 10 bathroom breaks that come with the bottle of water, but I'll take that over swollen, sore ankles.

Your Baby in Week 32 of Pregnancy
What's up with your baby? She's starting to get ready for her big debut, tipping the scales at almost four pounds and topping out at just about 19 inches. In these past few weeks, it's all about practice, practice, practice as she hones the skills she'll need to thrive outside the womb — from swallowing and breathing to kicking and sucking. And speaking of sucking, your little one has been able to suck her thumb for a while now. Something else to note: As more and more fat accumulates under your baby's skin, she's becoming less transparent and more opaque.
I hope you had a Blessed Sunday!
