33 weeks





How Far Along:  33 weeks on Tuesday 6/05/12. 
Size of baby: BB2.0 is the size of a pineapple
Gender: Boy- Bennett Gray
Maternity Clothes: Still just wearing dresses and workout clothes, not breaking down to buy maternity at this point. 
Weight gain: 20 lbs! 
Belly Button: It's kind of an innie still but I feel like any day it will pop out!  
Movement: Very wiggly! My stomach jumps from side to side all of the time.
Sleep: Not good. Because of all the braxton hicks contractions at night, I'm having a really hard time sleeping. I'm usually awake for a good hour every night around 3am.
Symptoms: I never want to make it seem like I'm complaining because I am loving every second of this pregnancy. I would take all this plus more to make sure Bennett is healthy. But, the truth is I'm having those aches and pains that come along when the final countdown is on. Heartburn is still in full force!  Contractions are definitely worse - they are the kind that start in the lower back and I'm having lots of low pelvic pain. My entire stomach tightens.  The good news is the "nesting bug" showed up at my house this week and I'm loving it! 
Cravings: I'm nauseated and full feeling all the time - even when I haven't eaten in hours.  But I'm still loving almost any kind of cereal. I'm basically craving tums with the heartburn I'm having. 
Best moment this week: Getting the bursts of energy I need to get some of my to-do list done before Bennett's arrival!
