32 Weeks

Well, I have made it to 32 weeks! I have been feeling pretty blessed to be able to have such a smooth first pregnancy. I know that's not the case with a lot of girls. I honestly expected to miscarry at some point or have something go wrong, but it's all been pretty nice. I feel good. Baby is growing just like she should. She moves a lot everyday, and according to the Anatomy Scan is pretty healthy! So I am greatly grateful for that and am so excited to finally meet our baby girl in 8 weeks!

So according to TheBump.com, baby is the size of a Squash, weighs between 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 pounds and about 16 inches long. I haven't really had many Braxton Hicks. Maybe a couple every now and then, but that's only if those are really what I have been feeling since I honestly don't know if it is. :) Apparently she has her finger and toe nails now. She has all of her senses working properly, and getting more plump everyday. Haha

At my Doctor's appointment this past week, we heard her heartbeat (148, which is what she has been at pretty much the whole time), which is still my favorite sound in the world. :) He was also able to give me an adjustment which was awesome! It had been so long since I had gotten one and I definitely had been needing it. My back, hips, and neck felt so good after that. And another thing was he told me that I have been drinking too much water! I didn't even know that was possible! But he told me that's why my feet have been so swollen. Look at these things!

And this picture was taken TODAY. I don't have ankles!  I have been trying so hard to drink less water, but it's hard when I get so thirsty and nothing but water makes me feel better. :) But I am trying!! And I had to stand a lot today at work and such, so that didn't help my cankles.

Other than that, things are great! My baby shower is this Saturday which I am super excited for. My diaper bag should be coming in the mail any day now. :)
And then I can finally finish buying all the things I am still lacking. I can't wait till August!
