8 weeks to go!


How far along? 32 weeks {almost 33!!}

Total weight gain: 18 lbs

Maternity clothes?  I’m wearing some but for the most part, still in normal clothes

Stretch marks? No….still in the clear!

Sleep: I'm officially sleeping on my sides now....ugh...it's not great but at least I know it is possible to sleep on my side.

Best moment this week: knowing that Liam is healthy and cozy in my belly

Miss Anything? My back not hurting

Movement: He’s kicking away inside

Food cravings: not really.  Just food in general makes me happy

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope…all clear!

Gender: Boy!

Labor Signs: We had a little scare this past week. I went to the dr and ended up in L&D for preterm labor.  All is well now, Liam is not trying to come out {yet} but mama is now officially off work and resting at home.  We need him to cook for at least 4 more weeks. 

Symptoms: my back feels like it's just going to fall off.  Leg cramps have subsided for now.

Belly Button in or out? I think it will just flatten out honestly.  
Wedding rings on or off? ON

Workouts?  My runs have officially ended as of 8 mos.  Hopefully after a couple weeks, I can start walking but it all depends on what my dr says.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and emotional


Looking forward to: Liam being born!

31 Weeks?!


How far along? 31 Weeks!

Total weight gain: 17 lbs

Maternity clothes?  I’m wearing some but for the most part, still in normal clothes

Stretch marks? No….still in the clear!

Sleep: This week has been better.

Best moment this week: I can actually feel Liam getting bigger.  He's hit a growth spurt this past week and apparently, babies hit an even bigger growth spurt at 31 weeks.  Let's see if this guy is a chunker!

Miss Anything? My back not hurting!

Movement: He’s kicking away inside!

Food cravings: not really.  Just food in general makes me happy

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope…all clear!

Gender: Boy!

Labor Signs: Nope…still got a while for those {hopefully}!

Symptoms: Achy back, leg cramps (hello, 3 in one night?  Horrible!)

Belly Button in or out? IN but flattening out more.
Wedding rings on or off? ON
Workouts? This week has been a wash.  We ran part of a marathon relay last week so I ran 6.5 miles.  Now that I am back at home I have just been resting.  I went out for a 4 mile run on Tuesday which ended up being a 3 miler….Surprisingly, I don’t feel too guilty about not running.  I’m one week away from being 8 months pregnant, maybe this is just my body’s way of telling me it may be time to take the running shoes off.  We will see this weekend!

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and emotional

Looking forward to: Liam being born!
