Pregnancy Highlights

How far along: 32 weeks :)

Size of baby: Baby #2 is now weighing in at almost 4 lbs!  Roughly the size of a jicama (and I had no idea what that looked like so here is a picture…).

Weight gained: Baby went through a growth spurt (or at least that’s what I am telling myself).  At my last appointment I had gained more than a few lbs.  I’m trying to remember it’s all for a good cause…but seriously?  I am dreading getting the baby weight off.  It was not easy for me last time!

Movement: Not as much as I had been feeling, but this is normal as the baby takes up more space.  Last night I think I felt the baby’s heel pushing up against my belly—it was pretty exciting!

Things I miss: Regular clothes, regular bathing suits, and not being big.  

Cravings/aversions: I have been craving watermelon, grapes and watery fruits.  I also had a huge craving for strawberry ice cream (I don’t think I’ve EVER had it before haha!) but ended up just thinking about it instead of going out to get it.  Probably for the best ;).

Pregnancy symptoms: Heartburn, using the rest room every 10 mins, and fatigue are the main ones right now.  I try to nap when Charlotte naps, but it doesn’t always work out.

Highlight of the week:  This is unrelated to baby #2…but Charlotte is finally saying “mama”.  Her little voice makes my heart melt!
