33 Weeks {a pregnancy update}.

33weekspregnant_adollopofmylife
(not really sure why this picture is so fuzzy, or why I look like I'm hungover. I didn't realize it looked like this till I uploaded it, and I'm not sure I'll get another chance to take a picture today so this is what we've got to work with.)
How Far Along: 33 weeks, 4 days
Size of baby: 19-22 inches long, 4.9 lbs, about the size of a Pineapple (I really think he is LONG because I am getting kicks in places in my organs and ribs that I never got with either of my other boys).
Total Weight Gain/Loss: (as of 4/5/13) 27 pounds.
 Maternity Clothes: Maternity clothes for pretty much everything, although even maternity clothes don't really fit right.
Gender: BOY! Tyler Paul.
Movement: The boy MOVES. Almost as much, or maybe even more, than Brayden. Which scares me a little :)
Sleep: I've slept ok, other than having to wake up atleast 3 times a night to go to the bathroom. And my dreams have been CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY. 
Symptoms: I have most of the symptoms listed in the books that accompany the third trimester. The only new thing for me during this pregnancy is the slight swelling I'm getting. It's only later in the day, and only on days when I overdo it and/or eat lots of salt. So I'm trying to watch both
What I miss: I miss being able to keep up with my boys. It's so frustrating not being able to bend over, run after and play with them in the way I normally would.
Cravings: Pretty much anything. Although I'm to the point that if I eat even one bite more than I should, I get heartburn, and that makes eating no fun at all. 
Food Aversions: nada.
Best Moment this week: Just making it through another week is a moment worth celebrating right now. ha!
What I am looking forward to: Definitely looking forward to my sisters wedding that's coming up! And if you've read my blog for a while, you'll know this is my SECOND wedding that I've been 34 weeks pregnant in. Apparently when I get pregnant, my sisters get married :)
