Pregnancy - WEEK 33 (June 30th – July 6th)

This is me...NO make up, 5:45AM, and exhausted. Pretty.

7 weeks to go.

Or less.

Whew.

Who’s as ready to meet Baby Girl as I am!?!?!

That’s all I think about now-a-day’s….what does she look like? Is she going to have black or really dark hair? Is she going to have blue eyes like me? I think it’s safe to say that she has my mouth…..just by the sono pictures. Lol.

What’s her personality going to be like? Is she going to be stubborn like her Mama….and the rest of my side of the family? Is she going to want to be on-the-go and active like her Daddy?

Will she be tall? Will she *hopefully* get my mom’s side of the family metabolism? Or will she be like me and everything goes to her ass? Or will she be like Ryan & his parents and be super in shape?

Will she be an artist?

Or will she be athletic?

Or both?

So many questions. I wonder so much!

As, I’m sure, every expecting mother does. But I just can’t wait! I want to meet her now!!!

Well, not right this minute. But soon. Ok, how about after we move. Anytime after that, I’m good.

I’m still having the typical pregnancy symptoms of sleepless nights, stuffy nose, shortness of breath, and oh ya, my personal favorite….swollen feet. Yup, the feet aren’t getting any better. No matter how much water I drink. Or how much I try to stay off them. By the time I get home they are huge and sore and all I want to do is stab a person. Not good when you need to pack up your shit for your impending move in a week. Whatever.

But, all in all, it’s still not that bad. If I can catch up on sleep on the weekends, then I’m usually good. And this weekend being a holiday, I’m going to rest up for sure!!! I should come back all energized and ready to go! (ya, I’ll let you know if that happens)

On to Baby Girl!

This week she’s still growing. And growing, and growing! They say she can double in weight by the time she’s born…..lets all pray that doesn’t happen, because having a 10 lb baby is not in my future.

Baby Girl is acting more like a baby by closing her eyes during sleep and opening them during awake times. She’s also getting more and more pushy. The amniotic fluid is maxed out so there’s more baby than fluid, which means I’m feeling her more….and boy does she let me know she’s there!!! There have been a few nights where she’s kicked and moved and tried to stretch out, for about 3 hours….non-stop!

Another big achievement is the development of her immune system is complete! She can now be able to provide protection from mild infections, along with help from my anti-bodies, of course. So that’s good!

44 more days to go!


FYI This will be my last post for the week, as I don't have internet the rest of the week. The July Blog Every Day Challenge will commence on Monday!
Have a great 4th ya'll!!!
