I have a little bit of free time, so I thought I'd get a head start on this entry. ;)
I am 32 weeks tomorrow! That means...
EIGHT weeks left til my due date!
SIX weeks left til the same week Noah came!
FIVE weeks left til I'm full term and baby would be ok to come anytime!
I've been thinking a little about how this pregnancy has differed from my pregnancy with Noah. I wanted to just note a few ways: (
hopefully I haven't done that already and just forgot HaHa)
*With Noah I felt nauseated pretty much ALL the time during the first little bit. I didn't vomit very many times, but a lot of times I felt like I just wanted to so the nausea would go away for a bit. This time I didn't feel nauseated near as much, and I never got sick (vomited). Instead of that, I had a little bit of "heartburn" during the first little bit, which I never got with Noah, but I never really had the burning feeling, just the acid reflux (gross!).
*For some reason this time around I've been SO gassy, as in having to burp ALL THE TIME! It was really bad during the first little while, went away, and now it's coming back. It's really annoying HaHa.
*As I've already mentioned above, this time I've had a lot of acid reflux, which I did not have with Noah. It subsided for awhile, but it's back.
*With Noah I had aches and pains, but with this one they came a lot sooner and a lot stronger! I've also had ones that I didn't have with Noah, such as my hips.
*Leg cramps. With Noah I had them, and they were just as painful with him as they are with this one. They literally jar me out of a sleep and make me want to cry. With Noah they were only in my calf muscles, this time I have had them in my feet and thigh as well. I have to try to be very conscious of the way I stretch my leg, flex my feet, or how I move when I am laying in bed, because one small wrong move and I can get a horrible cramp. Because I have been getting them in other places than I did with Noah, I have gotten them a bit more. Not very fun HaHa.
*Braxton Hicks contractions. With Noah I never noticed them, but I'm sure I had them, I think every woman does (it's just a matter of noticing or not). This time I have noticed a few.
*RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome). I had it with Noah, I think I had it worse with him at night. This time though, I get it other times than just laying in bed/trying to sleep. I'm not positive, but I don't think I really experienced it much more than at night with Noah, but I could be remembering wrong.
*Size. Stephen says I look bigger, sooner this time around. I feel about the same. We'll have to try to do some more comparisson photos.
For now that's all I can think of, but I'm sure there are more HaHa. All in all though, both of my prengnacies have been pretty wonderful. Sure I could have my complaints, but considering how it *could* be, I feel pretty lucky! :) Thanks to my babies for going easy on me...well easy so far for this pregnancy as well! ;)
