Week 33

Baby Size: pineapple

Maternity Clothes: maternity tops/shorts/jeans, maxi dresses

Food Cravings: Caffeine free coke, dessert and sweet things

Food Aversions: pho, chicken

Symptoms: back pain, and I think (?) I had my first Braxton Hicks contraction this week

Sleep: my back usually hurts by morning, so I'm up and at 'em around 6:00 AM most days. Usually waking up 1-3 times, depending on the night

Movement: Feeling strong movements, elbows and limbs, can see her moving across my belly

Belly Button: popped out 

Gender: GIRL!!!

Best Moment of the Week: cleaning/organizing our baby's room (we added a bookshelf to house all her books and picture frames), started our childbirth class, and attended a friend's baby's 1-year birthday party.

What I'm Looking Forward To: maternity photo shoot this week, and family visiting for our upcoming baby shower

What I Miss: running, spinning class, and other high impact sports. An example of my lack of mobility these days; I got locked out of our house this week, and was tempted to climb through an open window when I realized that might be a tad harder with a big belly.  I called my husband to propose this idea, to which he sped home, obviously he did not agree this was a suitable idea...
