32 weeks and going home :(

I began my 32nd week on Tuesday of this week! I can't believe I will have this little man within the next 5-10 weeks. I'm excited about going home for the shower and appointments but I'm so bummed about leaving Wayne here in Indy again! But not long at all until he's home, at least for Christmas. We hope he's home for good by the 20th of January because I'll be 38 weeks, and we don't want him to miss a moment of Truett's arrival. I can't believe when I get home I'll only have 2 weeks left to shop. I usually have all my shopping done by now, but it's kinda hard when your thousands of miles away from home and no way to get presents home if I buy them here!



My last shower is this weekend and my 32 week appointment is on Monday with my OB. I can't wait, it's been 6 weeks since I've been. So this should be interesting with my weight and belly measurement. I'll keep you posted. My goal weight is 123 lbs., last time I was 117 and I'm trying to keep a pace of about 1 lb. per week. If I hit my goal then I'll have gained 19 lbs. at 32 weeks, sounds good to me. I do feel like I've gained at least that much. I've been having a rough time at night, I guess that's God's way of getting me prepared. I now have to sleep on my sides there is no way around it. If I sleep on my back I can't breathe well, he puts pressure on my lungs. I won't even discuss sleeping on my tummy, I feel like I'm squishing him and me, although I did sleep on my belly until about 25 weeks. That is also about when I started to show 25-27 weeks. Now at 32 weeks I toss from one side to the other, and wake up each time I do. I feel like I'm pulling something if I lay on one side too long. SO that's the whiny pregnant lady's complaints.




I am so excited to see the finish line. I'm not going to have a camera for a while, I'll be at home with only a 35mm. But I'll try to get some shower pics and develop them for this blog. I hope everybody has a great weekend!
