How far along: 33 weeks
Size of our baby: Clayton is now over 4 pounds and roughly the size of a pineapple
Total weight gain/loss: Total gain: I am now up to an extra 34 pounds. Eeek... a little more than I was hoping considering there's still over a month to go. BUT, I really don't care. I am healthy and my baby is healthy, I will deal with the weight gain later!
Maternity clothes: Dresses are the most comfortable thing I own right now. I am wishing that I wasn't so pasty white and looked better in them but that is okay. I am outgrowing a lot of the pants/capris that I have been wearing most of the pregnancy and a few of my maternity t-shirts are starting to get too short.
Stretch marks: None so far! Woo Hoo!!
Sleep: Sleep is hit or miss. If I take afternoon naps, I can't sleep at night so usually I just try to go to bed early instead. Occasionally I am tired enough to sleep through the whole night but most nights I am up several times to pee.
Best moment this week: My birthday last week was pretty awesome and my prenatal massage was great too. However, I have to say that the highlight of the week was finally getting through the mile high piles of things to do on my desk at work. I am now feeling like I am finally organized enough that I could leave at any time and someone could pick up where I left off!
Movement: Tons of movement! Clayton is head down with his feet hanging out in my ribs all day. The first couple of movements each day are a great reminder that he is alive and well. After that, he needs a little nudge to get out of my lungs so I can breath! Fortunately, he still understands that his Mama likes to sleep at night and saves all his movements for the daytime.....which is NON STOP :-)
Food cravings/aversions: Still love pizza and sweets more than anything! Fast food breakfast could suck me in real quick but I don't wake up in time to get it (fortunately)
Belly button in or out: Belly button is in but is getting really flat. I would still be surprised if it ever pops all the way out.
What I miss/What I am looking forward to: Miss: Wine, my much larger non-maternity wardrobe, my husband. Looking forward to: 5 weeks left of work! Weekends now free of travel so I can finish up the last of the things on my to-do list, my niece being born in a few short weeks...or days :-)
Weekly Wisdom: You have to find a way to laugh at all of the rude things that people say. Most of the time, these people have never been pregnant or they are so far removed from pregnancy that they don't realize how rude they are. The ones who might know they are being rude are just idiots and we should laugh at them anyway!
Milestones: 5 weeks of work and 6 weeks until baby! C-Section scheduled for June 8th!
Symptoms: I pee 500 times a day... that's my main complaint. Most other things are gone or sporadic.
