I'm at 32 weeks and I feel like a whale. I am definitely hitting the uncomfortable stage and if memory serves me correctly, it only gets worse. I now have to check my blood sugar every four hours (I barely failed my 3 hour glucose test but a fail is a fail) and I will have to go to the OB every week. The household cleaning has slowed down a lot because I'm not as mobile and because all of my energy goes to my 16 month old. I seriously don't know how you moms of 2 or more do it!
This is my view when I look down. I can no longer see my feet or touch them. Maybe I could talk hubby into painting my toe nails. KIDDING! :)
At a whopping 5'2 I'm slightly vertically challenged. Just as any short person I sometimes have to improvise. It's not uncommon to see me climbing on countertops or what have you to get what I need. Well, that's not happening anymore. I can't get my leg up!
Baby boy is moving around so much! I didn't realize how much I missed feeling the movement. It's incredible and alienish (spell check is telling me that's not a word, but lets pretend it is) as my sister puts it.
Have a happy Friday!

Love the belly shot. It's amazing that there is a little person in there. :) How's your sugar free diet going?
ReplyDeleteI understand the shortness.I am a whopping 5'1" and my girls are two years apart so I understand how you're feeling right now. It's not easy, but I have a feeling when you hold your new little man in your arms while your big kid is playing around your feet, you're exhausted, and overwhelmed but you will feel so accomplished and happy still. I didn't realize how much I wanted a bigger family until I was in that very situation and I was elated! Congratulations if I haven't said it already!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with your sister, it does feel alienish! :)
Oh you're just so adorable!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing!!! At 5'2'' you just don't have the room to store a baby, except for straight out! I love baby bellies :) I'm a mom of 2 and it's pretty exhausting, but so worth it :)
ReplyDeleteYou may feel big but you look small everywhere. Except the belly, of course, but at 32 weeks he just doesn't have much room.
ReplyDeleteI mean, if you have to be hugely pregnant, being a cute one is the best way to go.
I feel like I could have written this post! At 34 weeks, I'm definitely feeling whale-ish! Hoping that these next weeks are as much of a breeze as they can be! :)
ReplyDeleteo my gosh...you are SOOOO close! wow! can't wait to meet that little guy in there!
ReplyDeleteOh how I loved being pregnant! I miss it. I was very whalish (since I already started out overweight and had edema). You're looking GREAT! Only 8 - ish more weeks and you won't be pregnant anymore....enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, so you are just about 1 week ahead of me.
ReplyDeleteThey just flagged me on my glucose test so now I gave to do a blood glucose test on Monday :(
I am going in every 2 weeks up until 36 weeks and then I switch to weekly.
You looks soo cute! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteAlso, a blog friend of mine is hosting a pregnancy party if you'd like to join in!
