32 Weeks

I had my 32 Week Dr. Appt and everything is measuring as it should be. Baby Bean's heartbeat is in the strong steady range of 144-150. The Dr. wanted to be sure I wasn't dieting since I have only gained a total of 9 lbs and I am starting my 8th month. She said she just mainly wanted to be sure I knew not to be on a diet. I assured her I wasn't, just making better, healthier choices. It is amazing the better choices you make when you do have a little being inside of you.

The only thing I have noticed is how more achy I am starting to get. I can really tell my joints are starting to loosen and it is getting tougher to tie my shoes and roll out of bed. I have been getting more winded going up and down the stairs as well as getting tired earlier in the evenings. James has been wonderful of course. I couldn't ask for a better partner.

James and I are getting really excited to meet him, but we are willing to wait until his due date. We enjoy seeing him move and kick in my belly especially before I head to bed.

We know it will be a major life change and as much as we read about it, we really will have no clue as to how amazing God is going to bless our life until he is here. James and I are looking forward to our first baby shower next weekend and then the start of our 6 week series of birthing classes.

Sooo exciting!!! You're doing a great job, girl :) And you look just beautiful! I only wish i gained a mere 9 lbs for each kid...yikes. I still have that much to loose! I'm proud of you and just wanted to say hang in there. The last weeks are tiring for sure. I'd highly recommend some pregnancy yoga. Really helped me! Can't wait to see your little man and hear his name!
