How far along? 32 weeks (August 1^st)

Total weight gain: 14-15 lbs.

Maternity clothes? Yes

Stretch marks? Nope

Sleep: great still… just get up once for the potty

Best moment this week: taking maternity pictures… can’t wait to see how they turned out- Jord is super talented so I know they are going to be great!

Miss Anything? Laying on my tummy

Movement: yup! Lots… I have been able to tell where her little bottom is and her feet! Love love love it!

Food cravings: Orange Juice

Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing really, but still just avoiding most Arab food

Gender: girl!

Labor Signs: Nope- had bad back pain a few days ago and was a little worried, but I think it was caused from too much laying around last weekend

Symptoms: shortness of breath, achy lower back, heartburn, and Nesting… I think it has started… so far I have cleaned out my kitchen drawers and cabinets- feels so good!

Belly Button in or out? OUT!

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, because I am excited to meet our sweet little girl in 7 plus or minus weeks and because I got to get out and wear cute clothes, eat delicious food, and hang out with good friends for a few days… (I know the cute clothes sounds funny, but in our town I have to wear long pants or skirts and jackets… hot and not so cute always at 8 months pregnant)

Looking forward to: seeing my maternity photos, continuing to get the house organized…

We found out at our last doctor’s appointment that our doctor (who we have loved) is moving back to America at the end of this month, therefore, missing our due date & end of pregnancy… sad day, but we are thankful for the time we had with him and felt like he was who we needed at the time. We will have our first appointment with the new doctor at 36 weeks. I am excited to meet him and have heard great things about him. I am thankful for a hospital that has many great doctors that I feel like I can trust- for sure a blessing!
