32 weeks

How far along? 32 weeks 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: 28 pounds 
Maternity clothes? I'm mostly wearing maternity clothes, or just bigger sized pants and shirts that are loose fitting. Although the gold shirt I'm wearing here is a normal shirt I squeezed myself into lol
Stretch marks? They are definitely popping up all over the place, but still none on my stomach. None of them are really bad either, they aren't deep red or very big.
Sleep: I'm sleeping really good actually. Love my body pillow, worth every penny.
Best moment this week: Running around seeing family and enjoying the holidays. The nursery is just about finished, and we are setting up baby stuff all around the house. So exciting!!
Worse moment this week: Lots of ups and downs with my gestational diabetes diagnosis. Different doctors have different opinions on how to go about treating it. It sucks having to prick my finger 4 times a day (sometimes more when my glucometer is messing up) and feeling guilty about everything I eat even when it's healthy. It's hard balancing my gestational diabetes with my birthday, the holidays, and social gatherings when the only option is food I can't eat. I know it is all for a better cause though, and I'm handling it the best I can. My 2 hour after meals blood is always good, my fasting numbers are a little more tricky.
Have you told family and friends: Everyone knows
Miss Anything? Eating whatever I want without the guilt.
Movement: More and more movement. She is running out of space in there!
Food cravings: I've been realllllllly wanting a milkshake or ice cream but it's too much sugar ): But I do love my breakfast meats every morning.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing at all. Nausea has been good.
Gender: Girl 
Symptoms: Lots of Braxton Hicks contractions on Christmas (it was a full moon), and recently I've been getting some actual contractions. Nothing serious or painful, just my body practicing I'm sure. Hip and back pain as always, and lots and lots of pressure down there.
Labor Signs: ^^
Belly Button in or out? Still getting more and more shallow. Not popped out yet, I wonder if it ever will?
Wedding rings on or off? Actually right now they are off due to my fingers swelling last night, but they are usually on.   
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!! Very excited to see January come and go
Looking forward to: Ultrasound on Tuesday for a growth scan, more and more doctors appointments, baby classes, nesting, etc. Things are getting more and more real!
