32 week bump update & anatomy scan
As of yesterday, I am 32 weeks pregnant!
Since my last thorough update was at 29 weeks, I figured that I’d do another today.
How I’m Feeling: For the most part, I have energy and am still working out, but I do get sleepy in the late afternoon. My heartburn is also pretty bad, and I don’t sleep all that well because my mind is constantly going. Otherwise, I feel wonderful. I really love being pregnant. Seriously.
Noticeable Changes Recently: My belly definitely got bigger in the past week, and several people have noticed. Otherwise, I haven’t seen any other physical changes. My belly button is still in, all of my weight gain continues to be in my stomach, and no nasty issues are occurring (I won’t go into detail).
Current Cravings: Subway, butternut squash soup, tofu (which I still think is so odd), apples, grilled chicken sandwiches, and eggs- lots and lots of eggs!
Food Aversions: I am still not digging broccoli. Chinese food also sounds gross to me lately.
Accomplishments This Week: I washed most of the baby’s clothes and lined his drawers. I also started to pack my hospital bag!
Things I Miss: Wine. I would really like some wine and a huge pitcher of sangria all for myself.
Michael and I also had an appointment with our obstetrician yesterday. Our little guy was very cooperative during the anatomy scan and is measuring just perfectly.
Oh- and we’re still having a boy (my paranoid husband made the technician double check!).
In all honesty, I couldn’t really make out the images on the screen very well, but it was still wonderful to see our baby and watch him move (rather than just feeling it all of the time).
I was so excited when the doctor told us that the baby weighs about 4 lbs. 4 oz. right now. It was just one more reminder that this is very real!
Unfortunately, we still don’t have the results of my glucose screening, but I plan to follow-up tomorrow if I don’t hear back today. As promised, I’ll keep you posted!
Have a great day!

Looking good!
can we talk about how wonderful you look?! At 32 weeks, I was huge. You look so fit and cute
Baby boy is perfectly healthy 
I loved the anatomy scan…so fun to see.
You’re too sweet. Thank you!
Wait. Chinese food aversion? I don’t know if we can be friends anymore.
You look gorgeous!
Haha. I think that my aversion to Chinese food stems from the fact that a lot of it contains broccoli!
Erin, you are the cutest pregnant woman I’ve ever seen! Seriously, your belly, your smile… it makes me happy
Aw. Thank you, Brittany. You’re such a sweetheart!
Chinese food is bad for you anyway. The baby is doing you a favor.
Happy sharefest!
