Week 33 update

Baby is the size of a honeydew.

How far along? 33 weeks.

Total weight gain/loss: Steadyish. After weeks of not really having much of an appetite, I suddenly couldn't get enough to eat this week. Hoping that doesn't show up on the scale next week ...

Maternity clothes? Gah.

Best moment this week: Nesting - got lots of projects worked on and feeling more prepared for Wesley's arrival!


Symptoms: A whole mix of fun - constipation, soreness, exhaustion, heartburn, stomach pain ...

Movement: This baby has got some serious strength. I spend a lot of time gasping and groaning as I feel his movements - it's quite painful.


Food cravings: Pizzzzzzza. And cheese. And ice cream. And still lots of fruit. And salad. And M&Ms. OK, mostly the pizza and M&Ms. 

Aversions: Still the breakfast grains.


Gender? IT'S A BOY!

Sleep: Not sleeping well at all. I'm tired, just can't get comfortable or stay asleep.

What I miss: Sleeping well.   

What I am looking forward to: Wrapping up some projects and organizing. I feel like everything takes a ridiculous amount of time and energy to finish these days, but I'm trying to chip away at everything as I can.

Weekly Wisdom: Try to treasure every moment, even the tiring, painful ones.


Milestones: I got a haircut - I didn't want short hair, but I wanted less hair. She ended up cutting more off than I expected, and now it is shorter than I think it was at any point during my pregnancy with Elle ... which means it is the shortest it has been in almost three years. It'll grow back, and I don't hate it - I just miss my longer hair.
