32 Week Update


How many weeks?  I'm 32 weeks and still going!

How am I feeling?  I'm definitely feeling like 3rd trimester pregnant.  I'm feeling bigger and I'm moving slower.  My belly is feeling heavy, but I'm not even close to being as big as I was with the sextuplets.  This is how big I was when I was 18 weeks with the sextuplets.  Sleep has been getting a little more uncomfortable, but surprisingly I'm sleeping good most nights.

Weight gain?  I haven't gained this past week.  I'm still at 22 pounds total weight gain.  No weight gain the past week surprises me because I've been really getting into the Halloween candy.  I just can't resist all that chocolate. 

Doctors appointment?  I'm seeing my doctor weekly.  Last week my doctor did fetal heart rate monitoring and contraction monitoring for about 20 minutes.  The results were good.  Kayla's heart rate was good and it showed normal healthy activity.  

Baby preparation?  We finally got a chest of drawers for Kayla's room.  I was going to order one online, but I kept searching craigslist in hopes to find one and we finally found the perfect one.  It matches the color of her crib and it's the right size for her room.  We don't have a lot of room for furniture in her room since we have a full size bed in her room and we don't want to get rid of it or have any place else to put it.  We plan on using that bed later.  Slowly we are getting her room ready.

  1. I am a long time reader, but I don't comment much. I just wanted to say that I love the name you picked out for your daughter! I have a wonderful sweet 4 year old named Kayla Grace. I am so happy for you and your family, we have also struggled with infertility and pregnancy loss and were blessed with a wonderful surprise this year when we had our second daughter with no fetility treatments at all. I have been praying for you and am so happy that you have made it this far in your pregnancy! I will continue to pray for a safe delivery and a healthy full term baby!

  2. The chest of drawers and the crib look great together, Kayla will have a beautiful room! In a little bit over a month she will be here and the family will be happier than ever. I'm excited for you and can't wait to see her! Love, Claudia
