VERY Pregnant.

Today I am officially 32 weeks pregnant with these girls. I'm measuring 10 weeks ahead, so I am definitely feeling VERY pregnant! Thankfully, it really hasn't been a hard pregnancy. I've been having trouble sleeping (not to mention I literally wake once every single hour throughout the night to pee), but that is completely normal for me at this point during pregnancy. Swelling is only high if I'm on my feet too much (also normal).

But there has been two things going on with me that I haven't experienced in past pregnancies... one is that I have a certain spot in my back that is irritated and somewhat painful at least 50% of the time and the other thing is that I'm having a hard time getting much food down at once. Last night for supper I had one regular slice of pizza and a little salad and that was too much! I felt so NAUSEATED. And it takes a really long time to digest anything. So that means that the rapid weight gain I experienced between about 22-30 weeks has significantly slowed. I'd read in one of my twin pregnancy books months ago that the reason for all of the weight gain in the earlier months is because once you get toward the end, you can hardly eat, hence the need for fat reserves. Makes total sense to me now!

Robby and I have been busy getting the nursery together. I am so excited about it! Both cribs will arrive this week as well as the bedding. I'm going to order the girls' dresser in a few days and that will officially be the last of anything major we need for them. I can't wait to get their room complete and share pictures!
