How Far Along? 32 weeks 3 days
Weight Gain? 40+ lbs. I haven't been weighed since my last doctors appointment but I go on Friday to see the damage! Haha.
Workouts? I am pretty much only working out 3 days a week but it has been feeling like a good routine! I teach spin on Mondays and do modified crossfit on Wednesdays and Fridays. Also, my toddler is keeping me active on the off days.
Maternity Clothes? Not anymore. Since it's summer time I am wearing lots of skirts and dresses. Occasionally my maternity leggings.
Sleep? I wake up a lot which is not a normal thing for me so I feel a lot more tired by the end of the day. This chick never stops moving so sometimes I feel that when rolling over. If my ligament pain is bad then I'll wake up trying to get comfortable. We don't have central AC in our house so I'm trying to stay cool which some nights is a battle! It's making me dream of fall a lot faster than usual.
Best Moment Of The Week? I've been getting a lot of fun baby mail lately which always brightens my week! Makes me super excited for her arrival.
Cravings? Im not really having any cravings lately. A lot of times I don't feel like eating hot foods or meat so I'm thankful that I can make shakes that give me all the protein I need.
Symptoms? On and off ligament pain, pressure and Braxton hicks to name a few. This time my Braxton hicks have been more intense. Sometimes I feel like I'm having menstrual cramps and I feel my whole belly tighten and I never felt that with Noah. I am definitely getting to the point of being ready for pregnancy to be over. More days than not I just don't feel like myself. I never felt that way when I was pregnant with Noah. Other than being huge and swelling towards the end I had no crazy symptoms. The other day I took Noah down the water slide at the pool and I landed on my feet but one foot slid out from under me and I almost did the splits! Mama is too stretchy to be going down the slides. I felt like I ripped my hoo-ha (sorry TMI) in half and was limpin out of the pool. I am so ready to just feel like me again!! And she has a dance party 24/7. Noah was active but nothing like this. I hope this isn't predicting that she'll never sleep!
Looking Forward To? We are hopefully taking our maternity pictures today if the weather holds up! I am excited to take our last professional pics here in Italy before moving to Utah (other than newborn photos). It is so bittersweet!!
