Time for an update....

32 Week Summary

How am I feeling?
I feel great during the day. At about 7:00 I start to peter out. I get tired and my ankles start to swell. I've increased my water intake, so I'm hoping this helps! Thank goodness it's pant weather!

How do I look? HUGE!!! (can you see my nasty stretch mark???)

Milestones
Watching my entire stomach move from left to right... and back again.

What am I craving?
Just food in general!

Aversions?
Not really!

What do I miss?
Being able to be completely independent... carrying things... walking up and down stairs without being winded... not needing to ask for help.

What am I looking forward to?
Meeting him/her for the first time! Maybe childbirth class this weekend also- only parts of it though!

Weight gain :
+29 lbs.

Discovery of the week?
Shaving is REALLY difficult when you're pregnant! I can't bend over that far to get to my legs!

58 Days?!?!?!

Are you kidding me? That can't be all. It seems so soon when you say 58 days! Time is flying by!

I will have an update soon- I promise!

Yes, I AM alive!

Who knew I would take almost a one-month blogging hiatus? Sorry for letting you down, anyway! Here are some pictures from my last ultrasound!

Baby Fig's Face

A foot!

More face shots!

Another foot!

Here's a video of the baby smiling!!!!

I feel good- but I'm getting VERY big! Starting to feel a bit uncomfortable if I'm very busy... but I guess that's to be expected. We go the Dr. again on Monday and I'll probably have another update post after that!!!

(Un)Prepared

I feel VERY unprepared about this baby. There's some kind of instinct inside that's pushing this, but I don't really know why. I know that at my 4- yes FOUR showers (one for work, one for me second job, and one for both my and my in-law's side of the family) that I will get MORE than enough stuff- but there's something that I still feel like I have to do. The thought that the only think I have in my house right now is a crib is just frightening.

I know- I've done it all, registered for the crap, even received two presents (that I haven't yet opened) and I even have the bedding already, but I still feel like I'm forgetting or skipping something. What could it be?

In other news- several of my friends are preggo- which I'm very happy about, because I know some of them have been trying for quite some time! :) Congratulations to them!

So really- what AM I missing (besides my brain of course!)

25 Weeks Already?!?!!

The baby is very active and always moving all over the place!

What am I craving?
Junk! Candy, brownies, anything sweet!

Sleeping the entire night through.

Discovery of the week?
We're almost there! There's really not that much time left! I've registered and the showers are planned. Now, we just wait!

Time Is Flying!

I can't believe how quickly time is flying. There are just over 100 days until Baby Fig is here! That is exciting, but scary too! We are frantically saving money, trying to get the necessary things in order and trying to make the guest room look like a baby's room! I will be sure to post pictures of my progress!

I have a Dr's appointment next Wednesday, so I'm sure I'll have more to post after that. Sorry about the no belly shots- but I couldn't find the battery to my camera for a long time! Anyway, I'll make sure to get that done this weekend too!

TGIF!!! School has been busy- but good.... I can't believe how fast life is flying by right now!!!

Ultrasound Update

So, I went on Monday morning for my ultrasound as part of the fetal growth study. Here's some of the pictures/video I got!!!

A foot!

Thumb sucker!
