32 weeks (8 weeks to go…maybe 6?)

Yep…that’s right…less than 2 months left…yikes, 2 months seems so much longer than 8 weeks! let’s stick to the weeks, shall we? (I’ll still include it for you though mom!)

I feel like this baby is going to be a big baby, and that scares me! I’m quite uncomfortable, mostly because my tummy is big enough that the pants and capris I have roll down below my belly and ends up being super tight…and honestly I don’t want to go get new pants, especially with 8 weeks or less left! Now the pelvic pain is mostly gone…usually just when I’m in bed rolling from one side to the other, but now I’m enjoying (psh!) the experience of restless leg. Not cool either! My sis-in-law pointed out that I’m now getting to experience a little of what some women experience when they’re pregnant (since I’ve been very lucky with my first two)…so, here’s to you women who do have to experience this and worse! You’re stronger than I am and I’m a little whiner!

Here’s what BabyCenter says about week 32:

By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You’re gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, he’ll gain a third to half of his birth weight during the next 7 weeks as he fattens up for survival outside the womb. He now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). His skin is becoming soft and smooth as he plumps up in preparation for birth.

By the way, what the heck is a jicama?
