How far along? 33 Weeks
Baby Size? A pineapple approx 4.5 lbs
Total weight gain: 27 lbs – actually had only gained 2 lbs when I went to the doctors office last week which was a miracle after vacation.
Maternity clothes? dresses- some maternity and some not. Maxi dresses are the best!
Stretch marks? none on belly yet, using mustela and coconut oil now
Miss Anything? sleeping on my tummy and back. wine. My full closet of clothes and a summer cocktail!
Movement: Moving a TON. its so fun. He’s moving day and night: I haven’t felt hiccups yet which I know is really common or at least I don’t know what they feel like.
Food cravings: smoothies
Symptoms: heartburn. I’m not sure exactly what Braxton hicks are supposed to feel like, but don’t think I’ve had those yet.
Belly Button in or out? still an innie. hoping it stays that way.
Wedding rings on or off? on
Sleep: definitely miss sleeping on my tummy and back. I have some nights where I sleep great and other nights that I don’t sleep well at all. I’m getting very sleepy again in the afternoons and wishing I could take naps around 3pm.
Best moment this week: I had a wonderful doctors appt where baby and me were looking very healthy and on target. I was measuring 33 weeks at my 32 week appt. it doesn’t really mean anything but I’m hoping its a sign I might have baby a little early! I also got an unexpected visit from my sister in law and niece Emilia this week which was so much fun. She is two now and it’s just the cutest age.
Exercise: Bad week of exercise. Had to cancel my Pilates this week because of schedule conflicts and only got 2 days of walking in.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Gender Prediction: It’s a BOY
Labor Signs: No
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy. Really can’t believe how fast these last 6 weeks or so are going to fly by.
Looking forward to: Having Matt take down the crib in our rental now and move it over to my moms house so I can nest over there and get the nursery set up the best we can. Im definitely sad I don’t get to set up a nursery in our new house because I have such a great vision of what it will look like, but I am thankful to be able to set one up at my moms house for now! We are slowly getting moved over there and have to be completely moved by the end of the month.
You still look so tiny at 33 weeks! You'll know what BH contractions are when you have them:) It feels like period cramps in your belly. I've had both real and BH contractions and the difference is pretty noticeable. Real contractions wrap around from your back and make your whole belly tighten up. I agree about Maxi dresses. Just about the only thing I can wear these days! Not long for you now girlfriend;)
