32 Weeks Baby is the size of Squash

12/5/12 I hit 32 weeks. On Friday 12/7/ I had my 32 week Doctor visit. She said everything looked great and that I was measuring spot on. They basically get this measurement from taking a tape measure across the length of your belly. I have one more appointment left in December and then I "graduate" up to weekly visits and the oh so fun checking of me down below. Jealous....yeah I thought so!

I started feeling a lot of pressure down there too and some cramping as well. The cramping feel like menstrual cramps so at least it isn't an unknown feeling, but still not comfortable. The doctor said that this is very normal. Along with the oh so fun Braxton Hicks contractions that come and go. But the weirdest feeling is feeling very heavy and a pulling weight along with the intense pressure often it feels like she is going to "fall out" Again the Dr said this was normal and I have read many books that talk about this same thing too and call it "falling out". So that makes me feel a lot better.

I got all "dolled" up to go to a friend's holiday party. I was amazed at how long I lasted. Bryan and I made it to her house and then also to a bash for his friends too. I don't believe we even made it to bed until it was close to 2am! I think this is an all time record for my pregnancy. As tired and exhausting as it was I was glad I went out. I am trying my best that I can still do things before the arrival of our sweet little one.
