Update 33 Weeks

How far along?: 33 weeks
Total Weight Gain: 16 pounds!
How big is baby?: Sam is around 4 1/2-5 lbs this week! My little sweetie is getting soooo big!
Food cravings?: Right now I am still on an ice cream kick, it just always sounds good to me... but it has to be the right kind, I don't wnat it out of a gallon carton, I want like a soft serve cone from Dairy Queen... AJ makes fun of me for it.
Belly button in or out?: I have very little belly button left, though I am accepting that it will not pop. Right now it's almost gone though, lol.
What I'm looking forward to: Baby Shower! Which is only 3 days away!!!
Milestone: Counting down still. Only 49 days to go.....
Feelings this week?: I think I'm starting to swell, in my picture my face looks like it's swollen a little bit... I did just wake up a few hours ago, but still. I know my hands are swelling since my wedding ring is getting too tight.

I am really feeling like I have a big boy on my hands right now...(Or in my tummy.) He may not be that big, but it sure feels like it! I can always see him moving around now and I know he's running out of room very quickly... When I can feel his butt at the very top of my uterus, right under my boobs, and then I can feel his head in my crotch it just feels to me like he is long, especially since that doesn't even include legs!!!

I am also starting to feel like I live at the hospital, between all types of appointments and these classes, I am getting to know the building pretty well.. Which is a good thing considering I will want to know the layout when I'm there giving birth.

Other than that everything is going okay, I had some back pain a few days ago and it freaked me out since I hadn't felt anything like it before, but I called my Dr and they told me it didn't seem like labor since I wasn't contracting in my uterus, but to go lie down and drink lots of water. It went away after a few hours of that, but man it freaked me out! I am starting to think what caused it was one of two things, the pain started in my hip so I might have pinched a nerve there or something, or I think that Sam might be making his way down to my pelvis and dropping down in there... I'm not sure though, what do you think based on my picture? I think the other thing is that this kid must have his feet jammed up in my ribs considering all the rib pain I have been getting. I'm sure that will make my Mom happy since I did that to her the whole third trimester! Lol.
