33 Weeks

I had a great appointment today!  We’re kind of in the “just checking in” phase of appointments…just sitting down with the doctor to make sure everything sounds good, measuring my stomach, getting lab work, and hearing the heart beat.  Everything’s looking great and completely normal! I go back in two weeks, and after that we’re on the weekly schedule! 🙂

Size of Baby: According to Baby Center, about the size of a pineapple!  A little over 4 pounds and 17 inches long.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I am almost even with my last weigh-in at the doctor…so still up 19 pounds.

Maternity Clothes: Starting to grow out of maternity…I’m wearing the same few things over and over.  I absolutely refuse to buy something for the next two months or less though, so y’all will just see me in the same thing over and over for awhile! 🙂

Gender: It’s a GIRL!  Emma Ramey

Belly Button In/Out: I think it is officially flat.  The upper half sticks out occasionally too…I don’t understand why the upper half though.

Stretch Marks: None still!  The line below my belly button is just a little darker this week.

Movement: Movements are BIG now.  I don’t get too many kicks (mostly rolling around), but when I do, she kicks with a purpose!  And they’re starting to hurt a little, especially when she kicks the same place over and over.  But I still love it!

Sleep: Starting to get HOT!  I haven’t had any issues with being hot the whole pregnancy, but the last few nights I have been burning up, even with a box fan blowing right on me!

What I miss: Being able to bend over, pick things up, lean down, etc…you don’t realize how much you need to move around until you can’t do it!

What I am looking forward to: Our first shower is Saturday!

Cravings/Aversions: I’ve been super thirsty and wanting fruit the past couple of days.  I’ll get on my kicks where I want candy too!

Symptoms: The Braxton Hicks are getting stronger…I had one last night that I could barely breathe through, much less function.  A little achy, tired by the end of the day, and still super moody…everything’s just getting to me lately!

Best Moment This Week: Watching the belly…I’m trying to soak it up while I still can!  It’s SO cool to see her moving, kicking, and hiccuping!
