Weekly Check-In: 33 Weeks!

Stats:

How far along: 

33 weeks

How big is baby: Honeydew

Baby's keeping her eyes open while awake. She's also starting to coordinate breathing with sucking and swallowing.

Total weight gain:

+22.5 pounds

Maternity clothes?

Yep!

Belly button in or out?

OUT and it hurts... I seem to catch it on almost everything!

Sleep:

What's sleep again??? I wake up to go to the bathroom about every hour to hour and a half... I have to roll over every 30 minutes or my arms fall asleep. It's a battle to get this stuff they call sleep.

Best moment this week: 

Getting new maternity clothes! I finally have shirts that cover my belly again.

Food Cravings: 

None really. Milk... I love milk when I'm pregnant!

Food Aversions:

Carbonated beverages.

Symptoms: 

Insomnia, lower back and hip pain (to the point where I can't walk in the morning), crazy dreams, hemorrhoids, and all the other usuals. Heartburn is back with a vengeance...even taking zantac twice a day--I'm still having to pop tums..boo.. but hopefully that means she has just as much or MORE hair then our Gabriel did. :-) She has hiccups all.the.time!!!! Also started having BH contractions...and some real ones too.

Movement: 

She's my strong crazy girl. She usually keeps my belly looking all crazy and lopsided. She loves curling into the left side, but I don't get much kicks anymore because she's SOOOO BIG. So I usually just see her movements and feel her rolling moving legs and arms. She has TONS of hiccups, which Gabe had a lot of them too. I don't remember Gabe's being sooo powerful, because hers hurt sometimes. 

Gender: 

Miss Kellie Rain

What I'm looking forward to: 
Gabe's reaction to his sister. He loves babies, and I think he knows one is coming soon. 

What I miss: 

Sleep, Energy, Fitting into clothes....

Milestones:

One month until full term (which is when I delivered Gabe) and 7 weeks until due date! It's going by so fast!

Next appointment: 

April 2nd @ 11am!!! :-)
