32 Weeks


Today I am 32 weeks pregnant, meaning there are only 56 more days to go till our baby's due date! Every day I get more and more excited to meet the little kickboxer that's been living inside me for so long now. At the same time however I am starting to stress more about the birth itself and about all the things that need to get done before our little baby boy arrives. However yesterday was my last day of work so I will now have plenty of time to focus on getting things done around the house for baby's arrival.  

My childbirth classes are going well, I really love all the information I am receiving . I also started up prenatal yoga which has helped relieve a lot of my back pain and the first hour of the class is actually a support group so that part is just great! Sal and I also went to our first infant care class this past monday where we learned about diapering, swaddling and different techniques for soothing a newborn baby. Next Monday is the last class where we will learn mostly about breast feeding. 

Also next weekend is my baby shower and I am SO excited for it....I actually can't believe that it is really next weekend as I have been waiting for this for so long now that I just can't believe that it is finally here. It should be a lot of fun, and I will be sure to post pictures!

How Our Baby is Growing at 32 Weeks: By now our baby weighs about 3.75 pounds and is about 16.7 inches long, so basically taking up a lot of room in my uterus!! I am going to be gaining about one pound per week now with about half of that going to the baby. In fact in the next 7 weeks he is going to gain a third to half his birth weight!
