Sarti Twins - 32 Weeks!

 (Yes, I look half asleep in this pic...that's what you get by Friday at 6:30am!)

I can't tell you how many times I've started and updated this post...things have been crazy! I'm still sick after a week, been preparing for my long term sub and shopping for a new doctor (drama for another post).

How far along? 32 weeks 2 days.

Size? Honeydew, 19 in, 4.5 pounds each according to WTE, if I things work out with a new doctor, I should have a growth scan this week that will give me more specifics on these little bubbas.

Maternity clothes? Very few options at this point, hence all of the Instagram posts in the same tank top that I'm currently wearing, shhhhhh.

Showing? My belly is measuring 40 weeks, so definitely showing!

Weight gain? I think I'm getting close to 30 pounds, eek! I was slow to gain at the beginning but I'm making up for it now...at least there's 2 in there :)

Stretch marks? Same couple on my hip and Dan found some at the bottom of my belly that I obviously can't see. Sad!

Gender? 2 boys! B & W ;)

Sleep? Hit or miss, switching sides and getting up to pee is next to impossible so I'm in for it!

Movement? Tons of movment, a lot of rolling around instead of jabs and pokes. Baby B's head is always poking up, it's crazy to feel them both moving around in there :) It's time to get out the ironing board and lay upside down to flip breech baby A while there's a chance that there is room left.

Food cravings? Nothing major, but I passed the 3 hour test so no gestational diabetes for this girl!!

Anything making you queasy or sick? Each night I wake up feeling queasy but I pop a couple of tums and I'm good.

Labor signs? Braxton Hicks, and lots of pressure and pain, looking forward to an appointment to give me more specifics on whether or not I'm progressing.

Belly button, in or out? Stretching but in :) I don't think it's going to pop!

Wedding rings, on or off? Off :( Rocking the trusty WalMart replacements.  

What I miss? Walking without crazy hip pain, getting in and out of bed comfortably and once and a while a cold glass of Pinot Grigio sounds amazing!  

Symptoms? Mostly really uncomfortable but the carpal tunnel has gotten a lot worse and according to my mom's physical therapist can cause permanent nerve damage. Today I invested in a wrist brace for my right hand (worse that my left) and it's proving to be a great look for me. Hopefully it helps because half the time I can't feel my fingers. Oh, still cankles.


Happy or moody? Happy and enjoying the babies roll and move and play! Also happy to be done with work and taking it easy to keep them cooking as long as I can. Still anxious about the doctor situation but there's got to be a good reason for it, right? Right?

Best moment of the week? Waking up from a nap to Dan cleaning...I guess he's nesting too!

Looking forward to... Starting with a new doctor and hopefully having a good experience, getting to see the babies again and operation gestate!
