How many weeks? I am 32 weeks!!
Holy Belly!
Have I grown lately, or what?!?
How am I feeling? Overall, I am still feeling great! I am experiencing a lot of shortness of breath lately though. It takes me forever to catch my breath. I feel like I am out of room!
Doctor’s Appointment? We had a great check up today. Taylor is measuring 2 weeks ahead and is an estimated 5.6 POUNDS already! That is just inconceivable to me! Look at these chubby cheeks!!!
At the ultrasound, we saw her practicing her breathing, which is a really good sign. We also saw her blinking and yawning. She was so active! My cervix is holding tight and shows no signs of thinning anytime soon. I am in this for the long haul. My doctor has no reason to believe that I will have her early now. Isn’t that great?!?
Since Tay is measuring so big, my doc advised me to retake the 1 hour glucose tolerance test just to be sure I am not developing gestational diabetes. When I took the test last month, everything was normal, but it doesn’t hurt to take it again just to be sure.
Weight Gain? 18 pounds.
Baby Preparation? Josh and I are in big time nesting mode. We are cleaning out closets and finishing up last minute house projects. We’d like to have as much done before Tay arrives as possible. Her nursery is almost complete too. Just waiting on that darn bedding. Stay tuned for the big reveal!
Wow!!! This post is just beaming of light and happy hopes turning into realities!!!! You have grown into a blossomed pregnant mommy. Seriously few women can pull off that beautiful look at the stage that your in. So happy for you, hope to see the complete nursery soon!

You look absolutely adorable! :) I am SO happy for you and Josh!
ReplyDeleteWow sounds like our girls are going to be cute little chunky monkeys. So happy for you and sympathize with the shortness of breath. I took the stairs the other day and thought I might need an oxygen mask:)
ReplyDeleteI'm SOOO happy for you and you look GREAT! I don't know if you remember, but Matthew was born at 33 weeks, 2 days and weighed 6lbs, 2oz. My dates were right, and I did not have gestational diabetes (they checked me 3 times). She's just gonna be a big girl! More to love and eat up! She looks adorable in those 3D pics...seriously! So glad to hear things are going well for you! Good luck with finishing everything!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Tonya
