32/33 week Charlotte Update

How far along?
32/33 weeks

Maternity clothes?
yes. I actually wore a pair of non maternity jeans that are a few sizes bigger than my regular pants and while they were a little big it was nice to wear real pants. Shirts are half and half.

Stretch marks?
none

Weight gained:
total- 25lbs according to my scale and 27 lbs according to the dr scale. I wear a towel at home...fully dressed at the Dr so I am sticking with my at home weight!

Sleep:
Horrible! Restless leg syndrome is in full force and there is really nothing I can find that will help. So I spend most of the night moving around. Dr suggested no more naps and no more caffeine...led to headaches so I went back to caffeine and no naps and seems to be helping me fall asleep.

Best moment this/last week: My baby shower! I have some really great friends here!!

Movement:
She is a moving machine!

Food cravings:
Sweets, oatmeal, and chocolate

Gender:
Girl-Charlotte Grace

Labor Signs:
Non, some Braxton hicks but nothing too serious. More cramping this week than last but I'm still thinking nothing serious.

Belly Button in or out?
on its way out

Wedding rings on or off?
off...they are causing a rash like they did with Clayton

What I miss:
sleeping on my stomach

What I am looking forward to:
Having my body back and meeting my little girl

Weekly Wisdom:
Drink lots of water!

Milestones:
I am in the single digit weeks now!!!


Dr appointment went well. Nothing new to report. At 36 weeks I get my Group B strep test and then I start going every week! We are still praying that she holds out until at least the 25th of April...there is so much going on between now and then that I really don't want to miss out on!! The Dr did say she thinks Charlotte is going to be smaller than Clayton was but the Dr in the delivery room said that Clayton was going to be 7.5 lbs at most right before I delivered him at 8.8 so we will see :)
