32 Weeks Pregnant

Oh my! I have been such a bad blogger lately! And to be honest, I don't have a good excuse other than just pure laziness. I don't have a picture for you for this weeks update but I promise I will do my best to get better and be a good blogger again soon. 

How far along? 32 Weeks and 4 Days
Total weight gain: 33 pounds total as of this morning
Maternity clothes?  Yep! But mostly loving regular leggings/yoga pants and a nice flowy top
Stretch marks?  The usual on my hips plus I found one more on the bottom of my belly. I'm still applying lotion like crazy but oh well I suppose it's just the nature of it all. 
Best moment this week: Sunday was my first baby shower hosted by my sister-in-laws and it was so much fun! They did such a great job setting everything up and having some games prepared for us. It was really nice to sit back and hang out with friends and family. My aunt is hosting another shower for me in a few weeks which will have some family that wasn't able to attend and that will be very nice. It's starting to get real!
Miss anything? Not really
Movement: I think he's starting to get cramped in there! He loves to stick his feet in my ribs and push against my stomach, it's like he's trying to get out, such a funny feeling but I love it. I'm really going to miss it when he's not in there anymore..
Food cravings: Nope
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Gender: Baby boy T
Labor signs: Lots of Braxton hicks contractions but not other major signs
Symptoms: Heartburn is out of control, especially at night, and my midwife says it's not going to get any better until he is out. I'm having to take Zantac daily in order to not throw up, which I'm really not happy about. I try to avoid drugs at all costs and prefer natural alternatives so this has been a real struggle for me to have to take something. But baby boy needs to be safe and get calories and nuritiment so looks like I'm just going to have to stick with it for the next few weeks 
Belly button in or out? Outie!
Wedding rings on or off? On still, which I'm happy about! Haven't had any swelling, luckily. 
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: We have two classes left in our Bradley method series and I'm really excited to finish out the class. It has been such a huge help to us and we have both learned so much. I am looking forward to putting all the knowledge to use!
