Dropped?

I'm starting to get anxious and nervous!! My mom and a couple of co-workers have told me that I look like I've dropped. That freaked me out at first, but then I read in my "What to Expect When You're Expecting" book that this is around the time when that happens. The baby gets into position and is pretty much cradled in the pelvis. If I could skip the labor and delivery part of this and just have my baby without all that, I think I'd be great. Going through labor and delivery scares me. I'm getting anxious just typing about it!! Oh well...I guess I'll get over it. LOL. 

In the meantime I'm trying to get the house organized and the nursery put together. We've got the crib put together, now we have to put the organizer and bassinet together. We're almost there. Once that's done I can put all her stuff away.  :D

Hurray for Paint and Carpet!!

Our house is looking so good! Danny, Shane and Mom got the nursery painted earlier this week and it looks fabulous!!! It came out perfect and exactly what I was wanting. And yesterday the carpet was installed. We had new carpet put in the nursery, the office, and the kitchen (indoor-outdoor carpet). It changes the whole feel of the house and it's wonderful. So much more comfortable. We're almost ready for baby India to be here. This weekend we're going to set-up the crib and other furniture in the nursery so we can start putting all her stuff away. That means I can start washing all her clothes and putting them away too!! I'm so excited! I will post pictures after we get it completely set-up.

32weeks and 5days Pictures!

I've been feeling as BIG as a house lately, so last night I had Danny take some new pictures of me and my belly. I think my stomach has pretty much doubled in size since my 28week pics.  She's growin'!!








And here are my swollen feet! They are like pillow except not comfortable. LOL.

32 Week Appointment

I gained 5lbs. in two week! YIKES! Well, it's not so bad I guess. My doctor says I'm still below the average weight-gain for this stage of pregnancy, so I can't complain too bad. I think I've gained a total of 22lbs. throughout the pregnancy so far. I have lots of growing to do these last 8 weeks.

My baby bump is measuring at 33cm. which is normal and India's heart rate is still at 140 and strong. My doctor says she is probably around 4lbs. right now. I can definitely feel that 4lbs. rolling around in my tummy. She has been very active and even more the past couple of days because I have a sinus infection. Every time I sneeze or cough she responds with a squirm or kick. I guess I can't blame her. I'm probably keeping her from napping! LOL.

Funny notes:
You remember those sneaky stretchies I was talking about a couple weeks ago? Well, they invited their buddies to come hang out on my upper thigh/hip area. I spotted them this morning while I was getting ready for work.

At the baby shower Eddie (my older brother) wanted to guess the diameter of my belly. So He guess 42 inches, Terra (my sister) guessed 38 inches, and Jessi (my friend) guessed 39 inches (i think). Anyway. I measured. It's 41 1/2!!!
