Wow, I just realized how much BETTER I was at journaling when I was pregnant with Kenna. Of course I had all the time in the world as I sat in my hospital bed, but still, it makes me feel bad.

Yesterday was my 32 week appt with Dr Schwartz. I have been contracting more this week, but he doesn't seem too concerned about it. Of course as the pregnancy progresses, it will be more common to contract more. Both cerclages are still in place so that is a good thing. Dr Schwartz gave me a refill of brethine while I was there. I explained that I'm not taking it every time I contract, just when they start to become too close together or very painful. He agreed with my regimen and thinks I'm using the medication appropriately.

The baby's heart rate was in the 160s this week, which is very slightly higher than normal but she was bouncing all around in there. I feel like she is moving all the time! She is either doing somersaults or hiccuping constantly! Yesterday she was flipping around in there and Kenna was able to see my belly move. It was cute. She loves to talk to the baby and feel her move. She is always asking if the baby is awake or if she is kicking.

Over the weekend we went camping at Missisinewea reservoir. It was a great little vacation. We have realized we are quickly outgrowing our camper. It only has 2 beds and bunk. The bunk is the area we use to store our clothes so then we are down to 2 beds. With the belly I have, Tony and I could not even share one bed in the camper so we had to sleep in separate beds while Kenna stayed with mom and dad. Kari, Tim and Andrew went camping as well. I think the kids had a great time. Dad took the boat down and took it out various times. Kenna loved the "boat ride" and was even talking about it this morning. She had a blast on the water!

Kenna is doing excellent going on the potty. She has been in big girl panties for well over a week and a half now, only wearing pullups at night and naptime. I'm so proud of her. I love not carrying a diaper bag everywhere, but can't get too used to it because it will start up again in less than 7 weeks when the baby is born!
