32w0d

How far along? 32w0d or 80% or 8.25 months pregnant.
Total weight gain/loss: +21 pounds, ugh!
Size: Large jicama or Squash.  He's over 16.7 inches long and weighs about 3.75 pounds.
Baby Development: I should be gaining a pound per week, with half of that going to the baby. He will gain 1/3 to 1/2 of his weight during the next 7 weeks.
Movement: YES! Both movements and kicks happen regularly throughout the day and night now.
Food cravings: Nothing new lately.
Food aversions: None.
What I miss: Jimmy John's, alcohol, my jeans (haven't bought maternity ones since I doubt I'll wear them much this summer)
How I'm feeling: For the most part I'm feeling good, I have the normal pregnancy aches and pains...but I manage to waddle myself around :) I'm also starting to swell, which is probably contributing to the sudden weight gain...guess I'm increasing my water intake to at least 72-96 oz now and see if that helps.
Milestones/Best moment this week: I had my checkup today and I'm measuring right at 32 weeks and his heartbeat was 130-140...it's always a big sigh of relief to know he's progressing well...I'm now going in every other week, I can't believe how fast the time is flying!
