Week 32, or 7 months pregnant. I have been feeling pretty great lately. My heartburn isn’t as bad as during my first pregnancy (I think because I am carrying lower). My weight has slowed down as well. During the second trimester, I was gaining around 2 lbs per week. Now it’s less than 1 lb per week. In total, I have gained 28 lbs! Yikes.
I have been experiencing constant contractions, much like I did with Remy. It was around this time that I was put onto modified bed rest until I gave birth at 38 weeks. At my most recent 30 week exam, my doctor wanted to perform an internal exam to see how dilated I was. I declined one, because I said that knowing the number would only make me nervous. I had to take a urine test instead, but I won’t know the results for a few more days. I was also measuring 3 weeks ahead, so God only knows when our little babe will arrive. Maybe he/she will be an October baby.
I feel wonderful for making it this far. Although I don’t want him/her to arrive just yet, I have peace in knowing that if I did go into labour early, chances of survival are over 90%.
Here is a look at my previous 32 week update.
Have a great weekend! What are some of your plans?
