Can it be possible that my bump is SMALLER this time around? Check me out at 33 weeks pregnant with Leila here. |
How far along: 33 weeks
Weight gain/loss: Up a pound this week. Total weight gain so far = 19.5 lbs. I am so PUMPED about this! Just for some reference though, with Leila I gained 20 lbs in the last 8 weeks (lots of water weight). That's bad, real bad.
Feeling: When I find time to jog (which has been only 1x a week these past 2 weeks) I feel amazing. Seriously, I don't even feel pregnant. I love it! Hopefully I can squeeze in a run and more than one weight work-out this week. Exercise makes me feel normal (as opposed to pregnant).
Maternity clothes: Of course! Again, this shirt (above) is a little shorter than I remember it. Nothing but stretchy pants are comfortable anymore. I sucked it up and wore jeans today. The pockets left imprint marks on my thighs. Can I wear yoga pants to work? I'm guessing I can pull it off in March. By then, people will be feeling sorry for me.
Stretch marks: Nope.
Sleep: I am having trouble falling asleep and once I do, I am up in no time to pee. I try not to drink my bedside water at night but this cold is making me thirsty.
Best moment(s) this week: Went shopping for some new furniture for the kids' room. Leila is getting a bunk bed and a new dresser!
Food cravings: Sweets are my thing this week.
Gender: Little man named Carson.
Movement: Yes, especially at night. The doctor says it feels like he is head down and I agree!
What I miss: Time. I am spending my time working, resting, and visiting with my family...all EXCELLENT ways to be spending my time. I have less time and energy to exercise and keep up with the housework.
What I'm looking forward to: Moving along with the kids' room. Jeff will be picking up the furniture next week and then I can get Carson's tiny clothes washed and put into the drawers.
Weekly wisdom: I am not waddling...yet!
Milestones: Last time, 33 weeks is when I started NOT liking being pregnant anymore. It was August (too hot!) and I was swollen in places besides my hands. This time it is much better!
Due date: 3-13-13

My sicky girl Leila has no idea how Carson will change our lives. Honestly, neither do I. |
