33 Weeks

Total weight gain?: 17lbs

*How big is baby?: Baby weighs a little over 4 pounds and has passed the 17-inch mark

*Sleep:I haven’t really been having any trouble getting to sleep.  My big problem is getting back to sleep after Doug leaves in the morning.  Once he wakes me up I am wide awake until about 10 minutes before I have to wake up.  When I finally fall back asleep it is time for me to get up and get ready for work.  Ugggghhhhh!!!

*Sex: A sweet little GIRL!

*Maternity clothes: Loving my capris this week.  We had a pretty hot weekend here in WA!  The temperature actually reached 80 degrees!  I made Doug bring the AC unit that we have upstairs so that we can use it for the next couple of weeks that we will be here in our house.  We are definitely bringing it with us to Heathers!

*Showing yet?: My belly is getting bigger and bigger!!!!

*Stretch marks: They are staying away for now! 

*Movement: She has calmed down quite a bit.  Thank goodness she has the hiccups daily because they let me know she is ok.

*Food cravings: Strawberry lemonade.

*Labor signs: None at all this week! 7 more weeks to go!!!!  The due date is getting so close!

*Belly button in or out: I think it is on it’s way out! It just keeps getting flatter and flatter.

*Wedding ring on or off: on.

*Worst pregnancy symptom of the week: Still having the horrible rib/stomach pain.  I wish that the pain would move around from day to day….but no, same place everyday…getting worse and worse!

*What I miss: Doug is getting ready for his physical fitness test that he does every 6 months.  So I miss his eagerness to eat bad unhealthy food with me when I want to indulge.  I miss my ice cream eating buddy!

*What I'm looking forward to: I am looking forward to our birthing class this weekend.  It is either going to ease my mind or make me realize how unprepared we are.  Either way…I'm still exciting about going.

*Best Moment of the Week: This past weekend we had some great friends throw us a couples baby shower for Madigan.  It was on Sunday which was Cinco De Mayo, so of course we had us a Mexican themed baby shower.  It was so fun to get together with all of our friends that work with Doug and their wives.  Sad that we are going to be moving away in the next few months.  They are such a fabulous group of peps!

*Week 33: Baby weighs as much as a pineapple!
