33 Weeks

BUMPdates

5 Sep

It’s Football Night in America, and we’re ready!

How far along? 33 weeks

Total weight gain? 30 lbs. Yeah… I gained over the last two weeks. Oops.

Maternity clothes? If it doesn’t have an elastic waistband, it’s not happening.

Stretch marks? Still no!

Sleep? Sleep has been much easier this week. Maybe I’m just so exhausted that my body doesn’t even care about being comfortable anymore.

Best moment this week: Getting asked to be a bridesmaid in Amanda & Cody’s wedding (yay!), and realizing that I actually will be able to take advantage of the open bar. It’s the small things.

Miss anything? Seriously, what don’t I miss? I have informed my husband that I’m officially done being pregnant. D-O-N-E.

Movement: Baby C has either dropped, or grown taller, or both. I now get to endure near-constant punches to my crotch, in addition to aching hips and pelvis. I know you envy me.

Food cravings: I know they’re disgusting, and not even real chicken, but I love me some McNuggets.

Anything make you queasy or sick? Nah.

Gender: She’s still a girl.

Labor signs?: The BH have calmed down, but they’re still there.

Symptoms: My hips hurt. My back hurts. My tailbone hurts. My pelvis hurts. Oh, and my feet are swelling. Not that I’m complaining…. Did I mention that I’m DONE?!

Belly button in or out? Outtie.

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or moody? I manage a good mood for approximately 8 hours a day. When I get home, all bets are off.

Looking forward to: Football is back, baby! Here’s to watching the games with friends, eating “football food” and enjoying some brew. Go Horse!


Official countdown: 7 weeks 0 days
