Very late in the week for my 33 week update, but better late than never :). Happy Friday (Yes, it’s Friday the 13th, but it can also be a good luck day!) Enjoy.- How far along: 33 weeks. 6 days.
- Total weight gain: If I’ve actually been calculating accurately, it’s about 44 lbs!
- Sleep: Exhausted, and waking up throughout the night to relieve my bladder.
- Best moment this week: Sleeping in past 7:30am!
- Movement: Yes, he is still an active Chili pepper. Now I can even see his little body parts protruding around my belly!
- Symptoms: Exhaustion, excessive back pain and additional heaviness in my tummy.
- Food cravings: Crackers and cheese and even the occasional veggie craving.
- Food aversions: Smell of bland chicken cooking. Never stops.
- Labor Signs: Baby is moving tons at times, which makes me think he is trying to come out soon!
- Belly Button in or out? In-be-tween.
- What I miss: Summer. But that will be here before we know it, thank God!
- What I am looking forward to: My second baby shower with family on Long Island!
- Weekly Wisdom: Enjoy this time and freedom as much as you can.
- Major Milestones: Baby has passed that 17 inch mark and is looking much less like a wrinkled alien.
