How far along? 32 weeks
Sleep? I finally found a body pillow that provides good support without causing me to overheat, yay!
Symptoms? Back pain and it's getting harder to move around. Heartburn isn't as bad as it has been.
Food cravings? Water, I'm always thirsty.
Food aversions? Still spicy foods, just because of heartburn.
Labor signs? I had some contractions over the weekend (32.5 weeks) for a couple of hours in the middle of the night. It's definitely getting more real! I've also been having "zingers" as my midwife likes to call them.
Belly button in or out? It's popped!
What I miss? Being able to move around and get up and down comfortably
What I'm looking forward to? We have so much going on, I'm looking forward to hopefully having some time to slow down and enjoy our little family of three, as well as the Christmas season.
Milestones? Having my first bout of contractions. Started doing kick counts as of 32 weeks.
High? Our 32 week appt showed that everything is doing well and right on track. My iron was low after our last appt and my energy level seems to have improved somewhat now that I'm taking an iron supplement.
Low? Continued exhaustion. We are being pulled in many directions right now with different urgent needs (and have been for a while). It's been draining in many ways. Praying for some rest before baby comes!
Bump? Growing and growing!

We moved Gid into his "big boy room" over the weekend. He's been resistant to the idea of not sleeping in his crib (converted into a toddler bed), so we ended up taking it down so that it was no longer an option. The transition went amazingly well! He did get up several times in the middle of the night and had a hard time falling asleep the first couple of naps and nights. Overall, though, we feel like it was a very smooth transition! I can finally begin work on the nursery, which looks to be a bit more work than I had anticipated. There are still quite a few remnants of Gid's stuff in there, and lots of totes to sort through. We are looking forward to celebrating the Christmas season with Gideon and have already been enjoying the sweet innocent joy that Christmas is for a two year old!
