33 Weeks

So, this post is super late and I'm sorry for being so behind. I was trying to hold out for the maternity pictures that I took on Monday, Feb. 20th. I've only gotten one back so far but more are coming!!!

How amazing is this! Lacey Smith did such a good job!

Anyway, I will post more as I get them. SO excited!

How far along? 33 Weeks

Total weight gain: It's hard to say because the scale at the midwife's office reads 4-5 pounds more than my scale at home. My starting weight was taken on the scale at home so we'll go off of that...I was 132.8 when I found out and am now 164.8... +32 pounds which is perfect according to the midwife! :)Maternity clothes? maternity all the time...Nothing else will do! (Except basketball shorts or sweats)

Stretch marks? I found it....so sad.

Sleep: I'd give it a B- 

Best moment this week: Seeing all of the progress on his room! Almost done! but mostly...maternity pictures with the amazing Lacey Smith!

Miss Anything? running...I really wanted to run the other day and I couldn't.

Movement: ALL the time! LOVE IT! He is very active!

Food cravings: fruit, peanut butter, candy, smoothies, and tator tot casserole

Anything making you queasy or sick: coffee and sea food. most meats.

Gender: BOY! Christopher Blake!
Labor Signs: Nope...just some BH contractions!

Symptoms: shortness of breath when he's laying just right, lots of gas, and exhaustion.

Belly Button in or out? Innie

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! but I still have moments...
Looking forward to: Finishing his room. and my SHOWER!!!! and seeing the pictures!

Everything is still super! He's doing awesome, head down, and all the signs point to a healthy and happy birth! I have decided that instead of a home birth, I will be having Christopher at the birth center. I was really torn about this decision but in talking with my Dad, birthing class teacher, and midwife, it really is what's best for CB and I. It will still be 100% natural and the birth center is amazing. it's like having a baby at your grandma's house LoL!

Fruitful Vine is where I am delievering. This is where I go for all of my apt's and the birth center is there as well!
