Boy, getting to the end of pregnancy using the fruit/veggie equivalents sure has lost it's oomph...this kid is still squash sized...but I have no idea what that really means anymore.
Still...I'm told he's healthy and that's what matters. His head is 8cm (if I'm understanding what I was told last week during the sonogram, just before I hit the 32 week mark). Our baby is now 4lb3oz...59th percentile and head down (though I was later informed that his position meant nothing at this stage in the game). He was shaking his head back and forth practicing his inhale/exhale techniques when we spied on him during the ultrasound.
Last week I mentioned, or I think I mentioned, being able to notice his presence a little more clearly. In the last few days I've "seen" him twice...meaning he's poked a little something high enough and still enough for me to rub and feel...an elbow? a heel? something pointed, anyway. Now, if the kid would just find a different place to practice that...the area is right around where I have phantom gall-bladder pain (or liver issues?) Of course, I'm sure he's thinking how lovely it would be if Mama could stop sleeping on her stomach ... I swear, I have pillows propped properly at bedtime, I'm not a stomach sleeper to begin with...but for some reason I keep flipping in that position. I don't think it's comfortable for either of us, LOL.
No nesting has set in as of yet. Maybe it is gearing up, because the generalized feeling of being antsy about our place is starting to get to me.
Peace

It won't be long now, will it, Jamie! Those remaining weeks will fly by! Very, very exciting. 
Blessings,
