Baby #2 Pregnancy Tracking: 32 wks

January 30, 2012 By Erika Zane

30 Jan

Only eight more weeks to go!  woo hoo!

I was 32 weeks on Wednesday, so actually more like 7.5 to go.  I know I could always be late, but I wasn’t last time, so I’m hoping this baby wants to be just as prompt 😉

Let’s see… What sticks out about being 32 weeks pregnant?  I no longer find getting in and out of the car, bed, or off the couch easy.  It takes just a little more energy and balance to do just about anything.  I have to consciously take a deep breath before walking up the stairs, especially if I’m carrying my little 30 pounder (ie Little Man).

What’s melting my heart lately?  At my last appointment almost two weeks ago (I have another one this week), when we listened for the heartbeat, LM pointed at the doppler and said “baby?!”.  He also responds to the question “Where’s the baby?” by pointing to my stomach and saying “baby!” and if I ask if he wants to give baby a kiss, he always says yes.  I know the idea of a baby brother is still novel to him and there will still be an adjustment when the baby does arrive, but I think we’re well on our way to an excited big brother and little helper.

What’s still stressing me out?  We have a lot to pack and the pending closing on the new house (tomorrow!!!) because, though everything seems to be in place, “it ain’t over ’til it’s over”.  Updates and, hopefully, pictures tomorrow afternoon!

Diana, my local best friend, took these pictures for me outside a couple of hours ago.  I think these turned out great!  Thank you Diana!  I think my stomach grew a ton over the past couple of weeks.  I feel like it grew an inch this weekend.

I hope you all had a great weekend!

About me

Hello and welcome.  It’s been a while.  For Lent this year I decided to fast from the thing that took too much of my attention from what is truly important: Social Media.  Though there are countless amazing benefits to Social Media, after about a month offline so far, there are seemingly just as many negatives.  I never realized how much of my brain had been hijacked by it.  I’ve had so many revelations about how much easier it is to move forward when I’m not constantly reminded of the past.  But I still want to record my family as they grow at this ridiculous speed and, I’m realizing, so many of our family’s memories are here.  Those along with so many of the struggles and stages we’ve worked through.  Maybe in the midst of COVID19 isolation and my kids around me so often, I’m brought back to a time when they were too young for school and with me so often.  Writing here during that time helped make up for the limited adult conversation in my days and the overwhelm provided by my… little treasures 😉 My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here.  And I promise it’s not always as magical as some of my golden hour, sun-soaked images would suggest.  There’s usually too much coffee in my system and we welcome all the prayers.  Come on over if you want to process with me.
