32 Weeks - Baby #3

Tuesday morning was our 32 week check up.  Only 8 short weeks to go before baby Williams gets here!  Between vacation swim lessons, work, golf tournaments, etc the last 8 weeks is going to go by really fast!  Everything went great at the appointment...stats below.

Stats
How Far Along
: 32 weeks
Size of baby: Honeydew (19 inches long and about 4.5 lbs)
Baby's Heart Rate: 160's
Measurement: 31 cm
Blood Pressure: 114/70 (mine is always low)
Weight Gain: 1/4 of a pound (yes the nurse actually wrote down a 1/4 of a pound and Dr Reiter laughed and said I've never had someone write down 1/4 of a pound) so a total of 20 pounds so far (I'll round up the other 1/4 of a pound :-))
Maternity Clothes: Um Yes!
Gender: It's a Surprise!
Movement: All the time now mostly in the morning right before I'm supposed to get up and at night when I'm going to bed.  Now that he/she is in my rib area sometimes the movements are a little uncomfortable but it's still fun!
Sleep: It's ok...hip pain and restless leg syndrome (only in my right leg for some reason) make it interesting.
Symptoms: Heartburn is coming back and I'm still feeling some light cramps every once in a while.  I actually had a lot of cramps/tightening yesterday and had to lay on the couch and drink lots of water last night to get them to stop...but it's still not 'labor pains' so assuming it's just Braxton Hicks.
What I miss: ???
Cravings: Decaf Sugar Free Vanilla Iced Latte with Soy from Starbucks!
Best Moment this week: Feeling rolls instead of just kicks and guessing what body part that was that just hit my ribs, etc. 
What I am looking forward to: Vacation in a few weeks!
