32 Week Update

Im a little over 32 weeks along now and today I went to the doctor for a sonogram to check Easton's growth! Oh boy....it looks like our little man may not be so little after all!! At 32 weeks and 2 days, the sonogram showed he could be somewhere around the 5 pound 6 ounce mark. He also measured around 35 weeks! Wow! I saw Dr. Harris afterwards and she said that he showed to be in the 83rd percentile for weight. Totally explains why I have gotten so uncomfortable lately! She said that it was too early to make any decisions about his delivery at this point but we would continue to watch things as I get closer to the end. I was induced with both of the girls and feel like that could be a possibility again this time too, but who knows! Here are a few pieces of info about this pregnancy so far:

-I failed my one hour glucose test and came super close to failing the three hour one. Luckily I didn't, but was told to watch excessive sweets and carbs.

-I have successfully made it to 32 weeks with no major complications. With Brooklyn, I was already on bed rest AND had gone into preterm labor.

-Braxton Hicks are picking up in frequency and intensity

-I am hungry all the time and craving sweets (of course), mexican food, and any kind of fresh fruit or veggie!

-I have still gained less than 20 pounds, actually losing a pound since my last visit!

-My feet will swell if I am standing a lot but otherwise Im doing great

-Sleeping is almost impossible and Im battling a sinus infection. I was able to pick up an antibiotic today.

-Im extremely hot and stay inside alot to keep out of the heat

-dream alot

-Nerves are beginning to set in once again.



Selfishly, I am so ready for him to get here but realistically I know that he is not ready at all. I hope that he comes at just the right time and I can savor every moment of the rest of this pregnancy...knowing that it will probably be my last. Im praying that this labor and delivery is a smooth one and that there is minimal pain and no complications. I've enjoyed delivering each one of my babies and I want that experience one last time with Easton!
