Total weight gain/loss: Forgot to check this morning. Oops!
Sleep: Awful.
Movement: I've had more than a few "ouch!" moments this week as this kiddo karate chopped me on my pelvic bone. Yowza. I'm afraid to type this for fear of jinxing myself, but I haven't really had too many kicks to the ribs yet, which is delightfully refreshing yet equally perplexing considering Baby Reeder's high enough to be constricting the crap out of my lungs.
Labor Signs: Hey, let's add this one into the mix as we near the finish line, shall we? (Even though it was pretty much worthless last time, with my lovely 2-day induction at the end.) Braxton Hicks contractions have been popping up here and there for a few weeks now, but nothing leading me to believe this kiddo will actually come out early.
Food/Cravings: My appetite still hasn't fully recovered. Maybe it'll return this week...?
Gender: Can't wait to find out!
New w/pregnancy #2: I hate that I'm about to say this, but I don't seem to be enjoying pregnancy as much this time around...
What I miss: Sitting on the couch comfortably.
What I am looking forward to: August 28th, give or take a few days.
Best moment this week: Hands down it was hearing my little one's heartbeat at the OB. It was very relieving to hear that everything's okay in there & he/she survived my week of hell!
Weekly Wisdom: There really is no such thing as too many pillows when you're pregnant. I'm only at 5 right now, but each one is super vital (like, major critical if I want to get any sleep.) I could definitely think of uses for 1 or 2 more, too.
Milestones: We're under 50 days :)
If you recall, at my 28 week appt the OB told me I was measuring right on track and that the baby felt average-sized. This time? "Wow, there's baby over here and more baby way over here. I think we have another big baby on our hands." Awesome.
Baby Reeder at 33w0d
p.s. It feels waaaay bigger than this.
