I'm 32 weeks and time is flying. Now that September has come, November doesn't seem so far away- especially since I'm due right at the beginning of the month. I'll admit I'm getting a little anxious about the whole "having a baby" process- which is funny because its not like I haven't done it before. The thing about it is though, every labor and delivery is different. My first two kids were both very similar- things went really quickly and before I knew it I had a baby in my arms. Knox's delivery took longer and was more painful than Easton or Kesler. I feel a little traumatized from the pain of that delivery and the pain of my miscarraige last year- so I'm praying this delivery is quick and easy like my firsts. I also feel a little anxious about having a healthy baby this time around. Even if the doctor says everything looks great- I feel like I won't believe it until he is in my arms and all limbs, fingers, toes and vital stats are accounted for. It's amazing what a miscarriage and being less naive as you get older does for you.
Now after the baby arrives, I have all the confidence that things will go great. We will have plenty of help and I expect to be back on my feet and back at it in no time. Work will be really busy that month (and the next!) but I know we'll pull through and thank goodness newborns sleep all of the time.
HOW FAR ALONG: 32 weeks. So close- but not too close.
MATERNITY CLOTHES: Yes and no. I still wear lots of non-maternity items (like this tunic and sweater) but I wear plenty of maternity items too.
WEIGHT GAIN/LOSS: Not sure. I don't weigh myself, but I think in the range of 25 lbs.
MOVEMENTS: The baby moves a lot these days. My boys have a fun time feeling him kick and roll around- which is adorable.
FOOD CRAVINGS/AVERSIONS: Still loving cereal- but when don't I? My heartburn has been out of control if I forget to take my daily pill for it. So pizza and chocolate both about killed me earlier this week.
WHAT I MISS: Working out and non-maternity pants.
SLEEP: Not so much. I'm waking up quite a bit for no reason these days. But then in the afternoons I'm dying for a nap.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO: Lots of exciting work projects, busting out my Fall sweaters, our town Fall Festival this month, Easton's first soccer game next week, and living up these next 8 weeks during the best time of the year!
