8 weeks and counting
I had my first two week check up today. I'm 32 weeks and I feel like I'm about ready to pop! Everything is good with the baby and me. We're growing and my blood pressure is great! Which is good, because with Jake I almost had preeclampsia. So at my last check up I didn't gain any weight from the month before. I was holding at only gaining 11 pounds so far. Then today I gained 6 pounds in two weeks! I can't believe it. I have not gained weight all over, this is pure baby. With Jake I gained like 60 pounds and with Zoe I gained 40. So all this not gaining weight as much is very new to me. The whole just growing a baby weight is very different. I have found that I am much more uncomfortable earlier than I was with the other two. I think he has dropped some because my breathing is much better then it was about a month ago. But other than that, I always have a foot in my ribs. I swear Jake left a little cut out for a foot in my ribs. Every child has put their foot in this one spot in my ribs. Other than the foot in the ribs, I have pressure in my lower pelvis area. Another sign that he has dropped a bit. That is just too early for this, but then I want him out soon. I know it wouldn't be good to have him now, but thinking I have less than 8 more weeks of this, I just can't take it! Help!! Does anyone know any good tricks to make yourself more comfortable? You'd think after two pregnancies I would lots of tricks up my sleeve, but I can't even sit up right to eat without being in pain. I really wish this baby comes soon. Sooner than just a week early, but still be healthy. I'm huge, so he has to be a big baby! We'll see. Wish me luck!
