Updated Belly Pic for 32 Weeks

I've been slacking as far as having Ethan take belly pics, so I made him take one today. I'm officially 32 wks tomorrow. I'm HYOOOOOOOOGE! I swear my stomach got bigger overnight again. It just kisses the steering wheel now--and I've got my seat back as far as my stubby legs can reach. I also whacked it against the ATM today when I misjudged my newly increased girth. I AM proud to say that I still fit in the booth at our local diner.

Remind me next time to put some makeup on and maybe schedule the pic for when I'm not totally exhausted. At least the baby's photogenic. That makes one of us!



I had lunch with my friend Bilynda and her 5 mo. old son, Marcellus, today. It was great to see them both. He's GORGEOUS! The most content, happy little baby. He smiled at me almost immediately and didn't even fuss when I held him for a good 10 minutes. It was great to see her and grill her with my one million mom-to-be questions. I was encouraged to hear about her success with breastfeeding and attachment parenting/baby wearing, since I plan to do both. Hopefully we can do lunch again soon!

wow, you look absolutely wonderful.. and no, not huge, there's a baby in there!
I can't believe you are already 32 weeks. I went at 36 weeks.. so I would say be prepared.. 'cause we weren't and that was the hardest part in the beginning. I TOTALLY procrastinated and she had no nursery at all until she was like 3 or 4 weeks old.

Wow!!! Miss Organized-to-the-Teeth Dina didn't have the nursery ready?? Holy crap that makes me feel so much better. I've been dealing with major guilt over not having started in on the other bedroom yet. Maybe this weekend will be the weekend we actually make a dent in it. I keep saying that...

Thanks everyone :). I'll remind myself of your kind comments every time I whine about feeling like an arthritic hippo.

Looking good!

If you haven't got your sling already, get yourself a BabyTrekker - the link is on my blog for my birthday entry. Best thing my husband got me this year - my elder two were both in one and they are the fabbest of the fab.

Breastfed mine for increasing periods too (last one stopped at 21 months) so you can add me to the list of people to call on for support if you need it.

I'm crossing my fingers for an early arrival too - bit scary to think that in as few as four weeks there could be a baby here. Alas, past history suggests that I could have as much as eleven weeks to go!
