32 Weeks and Counting

Only two months to go!  It's amazing how quickly this pregnancy has gone, yet then I look ahead at the last eight weeks and think UGH!  Life has become progressively more uncomfortable, so I definitely understand why most women dread the last trimester.  Luckily I'm still able to sleep well throughout the night, but sitting in a chair for more than 30 minutes is a near-impossible task.  Not to mention burlesque dancing while 7 months pregnant is VERY difficult.  =p

My belly has slowed down quite a bit...there were several weeks where it seemed to double in size, and now it appears to be at a standstill.  I've actually lost a few pounds this week, which my doctor says is normal for this trimester since my fluids are decreasing to allow more space for the baby.  Cameron has been VERY active...she loves to kick and punch in multiple directions at once.  I can tell she will make quite a water polo player!  I've started my kick counts and they usually takes her only 2-5 minutes to complete her 10 kicks.  This girl doesn't mess around!!


Since we're nearing the end, our to-do list is quickly diminishing.  We packed our hospital bag this weekend (hey, you can never be too prepared!) and will be taking our labor and delivery class in a few weeks.  Then all we have left is to finish the last few decorations in the nursery and she'll be here before we know it.

I'm looking forward to the baby shower this upcoming weekend!
