32 Weeks!

 
How far along: 32 Weeks 2 Days

Total weight gain: +10 as of my appointment on Monday

How big is baby?: The size of a squash - about 16" long and 3-ish to 4-ish lbs. I think I get a new fruit next week!
 
Maternity clothes?: Yes

Stretch marks?: I lost the battle. Boo. I knew it was going to happen sooner or later, given my genetics, but I was hoping that maybe that gene skipped me. Oh well, they're there for a good reason! Growing a human is tough on the skin.. haha

Symptoms?: Lack of sleep, it's hard to bend down.

Sleep?: Ugh. I'd love a full nights sleep!

Best moment this week?: Having my photography being called "professional" and needing a to make a release form up in order for my friends to get them printed. That's a first, but a good one!

Worst moment this week?: Being guilted into the flu shot. I know it's important, but I HATE the flu shot.
 
Movement?: Tons! He's had some lazy days though.

Food cravings?: Nothing specific

Labor signs?: Nope.

Belly button in or out?: Still in, but moving outward.

What I miss: Not grunting when I get up from sitting or laying.

What I'm nervous about: That I'm going to be a Mom. To an actual little person that depends on me. In about 2 months!

What I am looking forward to: Meeting my newest niece or nephew! He or she will be born on Thursday, I'm looking forward to seeing if it's a boy or girl!

Milestone: 8 more weeks!

P.S.: The nursery is just about complete! I should have pictures to share over the weekend :)

Ugh, I lost the battle too, it's hard to admit the loss, but at least mine aren't too bad, and you're right, it's for the best cause in the world.
AND I got guilted into the flu shot the other day too! But, whatcha gonna do? At least we're covered, mine hurt for 2 days though...
You're looking great! (Honeydew is next on the list for you I think, I feel like I've been here forever, but I'm a watermelon on monday! omg.)
Also, I'm excited about seeing your nursery too!

Thanks Rach & Em! I'm going to try and post nursery photos this weekend.

@Emily: I had my shot on Monday and my arm is STILL a little sore. The thought of a Watermelon sized child scares me... lol
