The average baby at 32 weeks gestation is 18 inches long and weighs about 4 lbs. The baby is taking up so much room now that I have to choose between eating because I'm hungry or being able to breathe. I'm complaining.. I know, but I challenge you to find a woman entering her 8th month of pregnancy that doesn't complain of the discomforts. I really hope the next eight weeks goes by quickly.
