Time is a flyin'!

Time is a flyin’!

So last Thursday I had my 32 week appointment, and all went well. Baby’s heartbeat was beating at 137bpm. Blood pressure was good, urine check was good, and weight was good. I gained two pounds in 2 weeks, which is right on track! As of today, sitting at 33 weeks and 3 days, I have now gained a total of 23lbs. The doctor was a little concerned with the amount of Braxton Hicks contractions I have been having. She asked if I was able to take ½ days from work. Definitely not capable of doing that right now, unless I had a note from her. She said she would give me to my next appointment to see how my BH are doing, and would go from there. Depending on that outcome, she would then check my cervix to make sure everything is still closed. I have been hydrating more during the day, emptying my bladder as recommended, and trying to rest at home.

On February 4, Joe and I had our 2^nd Baby Shower! It was hosted my Joe’s, Aunt Janel and his mom, Debi. It was great! We got some great things, and again we feel as if we are blessed with such great friends and family. That evening Joe’s family and us went to eat at Babe’s Chicken. YUM!! And as you know, when you eat at Babe’s Chicken, you eat A LOT! So of course, we stuffed our self’s silly! When we got home, I told Joe, we don’t have to unpack all the gifts, but I really want to put the Pack N Play out. He complained and griped, saying how full he was. So what do I do? I put the Pack N Play together MYSELF! And I did a pretty good job if you ask me! I was just too excited to wait, and since I already deal with carrying 23 extra pounds in my belly, eating at Babe’s was a walk in the park! The next day we did put everything out and together. So the baby’s room is almost complete. I will take pics of the updated nursery this weekend for all to see. It’s pretty cute! Wait—we are having a boy, it’s a very handsome room!

As for how I’m feeling…still dealing with those annoying BH. I am dealing with a cold or allergies, so I am trying to get over that. Other than that, I still feel pretty good. Joe has been sweet enough to go out one evening and bring me some chocolate yogurt, which definitely makes feeling sick a little better! Baby Joseph is still moving around like crazy! And I love every part of it! My next appointment is February 16...so until then I leave my belly bump pics!

32 Weeks and 3 days....wowza!
