On Sunday I'll be 32 weeks/8 months pregnant... oh my God... this is going by so fast.
Rick finished patching holes in the baby room last weekend so I primed and started painting. I'm glad it's finally starting to come together. I'm hoping to have the room done by the end of the month but we'll see.
Over the past few weeks I've developed many classic pregnancy symptoms... I'm super emotional and moody, swollen feet and ankles, hot flashes and some other things that I'm not going to mention but use your imagination. My belly button has pretty much popped and the skin around it is getting so tight that it's turning purpley-red... pretty!:)
Today I felt either an arm or a leg roll across my side... that was a very interesting feeling. He still likes to poke my ribs with his feet and lately I've been feeling a lot of pressure on my pelvic area, that's not so comfortable but I'm usually able to move around in a way that will get him into a different position.
I can't believe that I only have 8 weeks to go. Here's what babycenter has to say:How your baby's growing:By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
He's been getting the hiccups pretty regularly now... he has them right now.
I have pictures from 30 and 31 weeks... I'll get around to posting them.
