32 weeks

How far along?: 32 weeks, 1 day. Do we really only have 8ish more weeks to go!? Gah, time really is slipping by WAY too quickly. I know now that time is NOT going to slow down. At least I've picked up a few more things for baby boy that we need & if he came now we would at least be ready for him in THAT sense.

How big is Holden?: According to my WTE app, he is approximately 19 inches long, weighs about 4.5 pounds & is the size on a Honeydew melon. The Bump says that he is 15.2 to 16.7 inches long, weighs 2.5-3.8 pounds & is the size of a squash. Again, so somewhere around there.

Total weight gain/loss: +28 pounds, which is probably wrong, but that's what the scale here at the rental house says & it's all I have to go off of at this point. I'm not complaining, but I highly doubt I've lost 3 pounds.

Maternity clothes?: I live in them. =)

Symptoms: I've been good with both the heartburn & back pain this week. The need to pee is nearly constant at this point & I am still completely exhausted, but if that's the worst of it then I am good with that. Other then that he's just been moving a lot which can be uncomfortable at times, but is better then not moving enough so I'll take it.

Stretch marks?: Just Lois, but she seems to be getting more noticeable unfortunately. Bah!

Sleep: I've been tired this week, but mostly because we are so busy & because we've been on vacation. Sleeping in a new place, on a different bed has been hard on all of us. I'm sure sleep will get better again once we return home.

Movement: Still shy, but still moving A LOT. He has been a bit more active during the day this week thankfully, but still seems to be up a lot at night too. Does he ever sleep in there? lol

Food cravings: Nothing.

Gender: Baby Boy

Names: Holden Thomas (Brother)

Labor Signs: Just painful BH. I've had two pretty good experiences this week & painful BH suck! I never had major BH with C, but these are no joke this time around. Body...seriously? We know how to do labor so you don't really have to practice so much, okay? Thanks!

Belly Button in or out?: Still in thus far.

What I miss: Not having to deal with BH!

What I am looking forward to: Enjoying the rest of our vacation with family before returning to reality & house issues. *sigh*

Best Moment this Week: Spending time with family & enjoying our last vacation before Holden arrives.

Milestones this week: First BH contractions! Ouch.
