week 32 is in full swing & i am feelin’ it with suuuuper swollen ankles and legs. my legs are water-logged, ya’ll. my calves don’t even jiggle anymore, they are hard as rocks & my feet only fit into slider sandals, it’s a liiiiittle redic. we went to our 32-week appointment this week and we asked if the numbness and tingling in my legs is normal and they said “normal” goes out the door during pregnancy, so there’s that. they said that baby is measuring right on track and probably weighing about 4.5 pounds. we had an ultrasound & saw some sonogram photos but, to be honest, he looked like a little ghost on the screen. i couldn’t really make out his face or body very well, but it’s fine because we only have a few more weeks until we meet him! i’m getting so excited (and nervous) about his arrival. like when will my water break, where will i be, will it be embarrassing, etc. and then the whole birth thing still reallllyyy freaks me out but there’s no turning back now! we are registered at the hospital and are planning on getting a tour of the maternity wing next weekend which should calm my nerves a bit. finding things that fit is becoming more and more challenging, even dresses that fit a few weeks ago don’t go over my belly, so it’s a daily struggle, but carrying him is such a privilege and i can’t wait to feel the love when he enters the world and makes us parents.
