32nd week

So we went back to the dr tuesday...all is well HB was a little faster than it has been but dr didn't seem concerned...my BP was up again...so she doubled my meds again. yuck. but i actually am feeling better so that's good. she said she'll continue to watch my belly growth because "big babies aren't fun for anyone"...so hopefully that means she won't let me get to a 10 lb baby. Our first NST is scheduled for Tuesday..I'm kind of looking forward to it since I'll get to listen to the HB for like 20 mins...yay!

the baby is so active today! It had been quiet the past couple days as it had a busy weekend..but it's going nuts in there right now!

My mom has been working very hard on the nursery..i need to put up some updated pictures of her drawings..they are AMAZING! dillon's impressed too and it takes a lot to get him to say something is "neat or cool" which he continues to say every time she adds more! just waiting on my GPA to finish the changing table...he better hop too! :) we could have an outside baby in like 4 weeks. ACK! not ready.

Our shower was a week and a half ago. it was so much fun and beautiful! the girls did an amazing job and we got a lot of great gifts! i love baby stuff :) especially stuff for my baby! i'll post pics after i DL them from the ol camera....i'm so lazy these days i have no energy..i need to do laundry and our house is a mess but sitting on the couch sounds like a lot more fun...i'm working quite a bit to try and get my units up so i don't get in trouble and its wearing me out..my clients have been pretty overwhelming lately too but i won't get into that! :)

that's all for now here is the 3d stuff!



Although your baby will still remain active, his days of trying out for Cirque du Soleil are nearly over. About this time your baby will settle into the head-down position in preparation for birth. Other fascinating facts:

Both you and baby are putting on some serious weight at this point. You'll probably gain about a pound a week for the next few weeks, with half of that poundage bulking up baby. He'll likely double his weight in the next eight weeks.

Ever wonder what your baby is doing in there these days? He's busy blinking, looking around, grabbing things, making faces, practicing his breathing, peeing and listening to everything around him—pretty much exactly what he'll be doing for the first three months of his life, sans the adoring audience and the flashing camera.

Your baby may (or may not) have a full head of hair now. If she's a baldy, don't worry. You can always buy a Baby Toupee or some adhesive barrettes.

By the end of this week, your baby will weigh about 4 pounds and measure over 17 inches long—about the length of a hot pair of above-the-knee boots. Christian Louboutin? Manolo Blahnik? We're thinking Isaac Mizrahi for Target—you've got a nursery to furnish!
