33 weeks



How Far Along: 33 weeks
Size of baby: Pineapple - a little more than 4 pounds, 17 inches
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 15 pounds - even though my belly seems to be growing and growing, weight seems to be holding steady
Maternity Clothes: Definitely. Some of the regular t-shirts that I wear to bed are not going to be covering my belly much longer. That still seems so weird to me.
Movement: He's an active little guy. The other night, he rubbed his foot back and forth across the same spot so many times that it actually became uncomfortable. I did get some tips from friends on how to help coax him into a different position and to hopefully stay in that position. Last night, he rolled and rolled in there for quite awhile. Rolls, kicks, and punches are his favorite. He doesn't like to sit still very much.
Sleep: Napping and sleeping in late - though hard time falling asleep at night even though I feel tired. I'm having very real vivid dreams again -- like when I am awake I'm completely unsure if it was a dream or if it really did happen.
Symptoms: exhaustion, dry eyes, sometimes heartburn, backaches - no swelling thankfully
What I miss: a yummy drink...at this point it doesn't really matter what it is - just something other than water, milk, and oj
Cravings: Slushies again and cadbury cream eggs....yum!
Best Moment this week: not much happened this last week...I was ill a few days and so thankful that I didn't have a bunch of morning sickness after dealing with that. I don't know how people handle it. Also, we got his pediatrician lined up....we're getting closer and closer.

And the newest progression picture:
