Pregnancy Update: 33 Weeks

How many weeks are you now?
33 weeks, 6 days
 
Baby's size?
Honeydew Melon per the What to Expect app.

Symptoms:
This week, baby hit a growth spurt in a big way. I felt "off" for several days and each time that happens, my bump grows noticeably bigger.

Baby Seal has also been head down since our 3D scan and now I'm feeling his hiccups up high. I also used to be able to feel something small like a foot at the top of my bump and now what I feel is much larger - either his head or his rear end.  I sure hope he hasn't flipped head up. I know there's time for him to turn around again, but that window span is growing (literally) shorter and shorter by the day.

His kicks are also growing noticeably stronger and stronger - it's funny to watch my bump move as he moves! 

The heartburn still comes and goes at times but I've learned to pinpoint the trigger foods. Thankfully, it hasn't been anything I can't live without so far! 

Still no swelling or stretch marks although I check daily for both! 





Cravings?
Cookies and Cream Hershey's Chocolate. YUM.
Also PB&J Sandwiches!

Aversions?

Same old same old - fish.

Sleep:

Sleep has been good! Still waking up once or twice per night to potty - usually just once unless I drink water way too late.

Purchases:
A baby bed mattress and the cutest Mickey Mouse shoes for our maternity pictures last weekend!

What I miss: 
Sleeping on my tummy

What I’m looking forward to:

Our baby shower this weekend! I can't wait to share the pictures with all of you!

Best Moment of the Week:  

So many fun moments took place this weekend - the baby's furniture is up, our maternity photo shoot went well, and I had an amazing maternity massage!!

Here's a sneak peek of the furniture so far:

 

I'll do a full reveal as soon as it's all together.

 

Also, I finished his hospital wreath! 

That's all for now! Another week down, six more to go! Baby Seal will be here before we know it! 

Have a great day!
