8 weeks left

Holy 32 weeks. I swear each week flies by!! This past week was a good one. I was able to go to Utah to be in a wedding for one of my dearest friends, as well as have a baby shower while I was there. I will post pictures at the bottom!! 


How far along:

32 Weeks

Size of baby:
Florida Pomelo, once again a head of lettuce, a squash, or a jicama. Weighing in anywhere between 2.5-3.9 pounds. Measuring anywhere from 15.2 to19 inches. That's quite the range. 

Total Weight Gain:
As of the other day it was 15.5 pounds. And that was on the original scale I weighed myself on the day I found out I was pregnant. 

Stretch Marks:  

They are starting to fade a bit actually. I'm sure there are plenty more to come. 

Movement:   

Just when I thought she had no more room to move around, she finds a way. I can feel her entire leg go across my stomach and her arms stretch down low, her feet are always trying to find my ribs. I feel kind of bruised in one spot where she ALWAYS is kicking. Sometimes it really hurts when she moves because there is just no space in there but she doesn't care!! It's cool that I can tell what is where. She's head down, I can feel her back and bum and legs, and as Chelsey likes to call it, her creeper fingers. People who have been pregnant will know what I'm talking about. She wiggles her fingers and it's the weirdest feeling ever. 

Belly Button in or out?:
In, but it's so so shallow. It'll be flat here soon. 

Sleep:
I wake up a bit but usually fall back asleep. The last few nights have been hard because there have been some sicknesses floating around in the Bond house which makes for some louder sleepers.... Which is why I'm awake at 6 am blogging. Okay she's also kicking my ribs and it's a bit sore haha 

What I miss:

Being able to bend down and pick things up without doing an awkward squat while grunting hahaha. 

Food Cravings:
I miss Thai chicken pizza. I should've gotten it while in Provo. Don't know what I was thinking. 

Food Aversions:  

Nada

Nausea:
Grateful it has left me. 

Moody/Happy?
Happy with a hint of moody if something sets me of haha. 

Wedding ring on our off?

Haven't had to take it off yet! 

Symptoms: 

Um my coccyx hurts. There's no other way to say it. Mainly when I was road tripping. Not as bad now. But still it does not feel great. 

Best Moment this week:
Abby's sealing (LDS temple marriage) and Chelsey throwing a baby shower :) 

Worst Moment this week:
My poor husband is sick and it's the saddest thing ever.  

What I’m looking forward to:

My final ultrasound is this Thursday! I am so excited to see Harper with Bryce, he wasn't able to come with me last time. I'm hoping they switch over to 3D again but I won't hold my breath. 

Name:

I have been getting so many sweet comments about the name we chose and it makes me so happy!! I can't wait to meet our Harper girl. 

Baby Shower

Chelsey, one of my best friends who I met in hygiene school, through me a shower while I was in Utah. She had the cutest decor, and made delicious food! I am the luckiest person to have such amazing friends. :) it was hard because most of the people who said they would come to the shower had stuff come up, so I was sad I didn't get to see them since I probably won't be in Utah until awhile after Harper gets here, especially because my back hurts so bad from driving that far. But I was so so happy the people who came did. It really meant the world to me! 

(31 weeks and 4 days, Chelsey is 37 and 1 in this picture) 

This was 2 weeks before after Chelseys shower :)
