Tomorrow I will be 32 weeks based on the last ultrasound (which brought me 3 days closer so that is the date I am using ☺) I think it is funny how seriously some women take the weeks vs months debate. Yes I know that each month really doesnt have just 4 weeks in it, but why make things so complicated?! Pregnancy last for 40 weeks according to every medical professional under the sun, most of us know that we are really not pregnant those first two weeks, and only marginally pregnant the next two weeks (as the fertilized egg travels and implants and becomes the zygote, embryo whatever) I got my positive pregnancy test on June 1 2012. So I have known that I am pregnant for the last 6.5 months. Wow it feels much longer than that ☺ I'm at that stage where when people ask how far along I am, and I answer in weeks, they get confused. Well so am I. I'm somewhere between 7 and 8 months. I have 8 weeks left. I have 35 days until full term (37 weeks)
Josh has made the guess that the baby will be born on 2/9/2013. Not a bad guess. Its a Saturday. I am not sure. Knowing that Zoe was born 3 days early from her best guess due date which I now think was a whole week off and should have been 12/22/2003, I am leaning to a guess of 2/3/2013 for this baby. Or I am also calling 2/14/2013 as well because that really could happen. Not that I want to go past my due date....
Since last Saturday she has been pushing into my hips.... almost like pushing into the hollows of my pelvis. And she has been giving my cervix one hell of a beating for about two weeks now. Today the pressure is pretty constant. I've had to stand up and move around twice already and its not even noon yet. If I stand and sway it seems to lull her back to sleep and I can get some relief from the cervical beatings. Also my legs are hurting, which probably happened with Zoe but I don't remember. My ankles and calves ache. Chewing on ice makes me happy, I don't necessarily crave it, but when it happens that I get ice from my water into my mouth and I can crunch it, it really makes me happy ☺
Lets see if I can add a picture from 29 weeks
That worked well ☺ lets see if I can add a progression pic
