Monday Morning Pop Tart

Week 33: You tagged along while we photographed our last wedding before you arrive. Your dad said I was a trooper and I think you were too. =) We had our picture taken with Pistol Pete at the wedding reception! GO POKES! Other than that we’ve been doing a lot of resting in the evenings. I don’t have the energy right now to do much else. We did have an appt. with Dr. A. this week. Your heart rate was 153 this time because you were squirming all around having a jolly good time in there. You seem to be just like you’re supposed to be and I love hearing that we’re both doing A-OK. I don’t think that’ll ever stop being a relief and I’m very grateful!

Highlights

How Far Along: 33 weeks

Size of baby: Durian. (Apparently it's a large, spiky fruit from Indonesia.)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Forgot to ask again. =| I'm sure I'm up over 45 lbs though.

Maternity Clothes: Yep - been donning maternity yoga pants to work (and even to the wedding we photographed) instead of my too-tight maternity dress pants. It's sad but true. 

Gender: Still don't know.

Movement: Yes! It's getting a bit more painful too - little booger. Took a kick/punch to the gut like I haven't felt in a long time. If I hadn't been sitting in the car it probably would have brought me to the ground. haha.

Sleep: Still getting some sleep. I'll take it!!

Symptoms: More stretch marks, more hip pain, and more of the usual suspects. 

What I miss: Energy and being able to move/turn over in bed without it practically taking a crane.

Cravings: Cereal, muffins/breads

Best Moment this week: Hanging with Pistol Pete and surviving the wedding!

What I am looking forward to: Childbirth class (I think) and maternity pictures with Laura!!
