32 Weeks!

32w0d completed

33rd Week of pregnancy

8 Months Pregnant

9th (!) Month of Pregnancy

Third Trimester

Weight: 150.0. Lb (the scale shifted back and forth from 149.9 to 150 so I went with the heavier number.)

Blood Pressure: 105/65 (I took pictures just in case I didn't bother to update for a month)

Resting Heart Rate: 107bpm

Fundal Height: suffocating 41-2cm this day

All this uterus crawling up in my lungs. It's actually under my ribs. >:0

Fetal Heart Rate: Down to 130-140 range.

Fetal Position: At least one head in my pelvis, as noted by the cervix pictures.

Definitely got a heart up here though. What I'm not sure of is if that heart up here is the pelvis-head child's heart or if it could be at all. My birth groups are having fun debating. 

Belly!

My shirt doesn't fit. >:0 none of my pants do either I spend most days wearing spandex.

Comparative! 32 Weeks with my second child

32 Weeks this time 

Developmental growth: baby is supposed to gain 1/2 their birth weight from here on out, so I should be getting heavier faster. A baby born at this gestation is likely to be able to breathe on it's own and shouldn't need to spend too much time in a NICU. That's really it.

Okay I sincerely dislike this method and will have to figure out a new one. I wonder if I need to enlist the help of Man. I'm sure he'll appreciate that.

This is the only angle a picture would work. I'm not really happy with the result but this is the best I could do.

Note how the vaginal wall has changed color. You can see it in the hymen most clearly. It's like... Ombrévagina.

Trying this on my back. You can still see baby head compression but it's less pronounced. Of course, I also can't see what I'm doing.

I absolutely gave up today. Baby head wasn't even letting me OPEN the speculum. I'll have to use a different method to get a picture.

Clearer picture of that baby head compression. Ow.

31 Weeks 1 Day

Okay this is why it's so hard

See that kind of outline on the top of the speculum where some of the vaginal fluid is outlining where there is skin touching the speculum?

It's doing that because ITS COMPRESSED BY A GIGANTIC BABY HEAD.

Yes that is competition between a head and my cervix. It is definitely uncomfortable.
