Blondie Pregnancy 3.0 (33 weeks)

The weather is getting warmer and I'm getting rounder :) Whew! There have been some hot days this week and I can actually feel my fingers starting to swell haha. This little boy is a night owl and keeps my up wayyy past my bedtime with his rolls, kicks and punches (ouch!). We just got home from our last vacation as a family of four. It was soo relaxing. I am so glad we went and I didn't worry about people saying I would be miserable. I wasn't! And since we know we are getting induced at 39 weeks we can officially start the 6 weeks countdown! (Please stay put until then little guy!!!).


Eat...Can you say starvin' Marvin? Omg I am hungry all the time! I am still loving PBJ's and cereal (growing a little Toby for sure!) and am trying to limit my sweets (because I could seriously eat a whole pan of brownies by myself). It is SO weird because the only time I like sweets, milk, cereal or peanut butter is when I'm pregnant. It's happened every time for me. I think I could tell I was pregnant just by my milk craving alone haha. I do not normally drink milk EVER. I have cut out all juice, sugary drinks and just drink a small cup of coffee in the morning and then water the rest of the day. I love water so it's not that hard.


Sleep...I sleep great once I am asleep. Falling asleep is a separate issue! This little guy is such a mover at night. He moves nonstop from about 10pm until midnight. NONSTOP! You can see him move from my belly and if I've eaten anything recently all the movement makes me so nauseous. Once I finally fall asleep I sleep great. Some nights I even sleep until morning (those are my favorite) but most nights I am up a few times for a pee break lol.


Health...I'm up 28 lbs so far and am definitely starting to switch my mindset from "eat what you want you're pregnant..." to "ugh in a few weeks I am going to have to get this weight off..." Still enjoying being pregnant and not feeling guilty about what I eat. I pretty much have spent the last five years (when not pregnant) being cautious about calories and what I weigh so the pregnant break from that is so nice. I hate getting weighed at my doctor's appointments but my sweet husband always reminds me that I'm pregnant and to enjoy it! I am haha! I go to the doctor every other week and we had an ultrasound at 32 weeks where our little guy hid his face the ENTIRE time. He weighs 4lbs and is a shy little guy :) Guess we will just have to wait a few more weeks to see his sweet face! My fingers have started to swell in the last few weeks but nothing else. My fingers actually always swell in heat (pregnant or not) so this isn't something new. I took my rings off a couple of weeks ago and have bought a replacement set (read FAKE) to wear for these last few weeks haha. I am someone who feels naked without my wedding rings on so I didn't like the thought of going completely ringless for the next month and half. Call me crazy but I love my rings :)


Life...His nursery is still a work in progress but it's almost complete. My mom made all of his bedding and a cover for the diaper changer and I can NOT wait to put it all up. Toby hung shelves in his reading corner for books and some pictures. We still need a small lamp for his dresser and a rug for the floor and are waiting on his custom monogram to come in for over the crib but otherwise his room is just about finished. His closet is stocked and he may even have a name (hence the monogram order lol) :) We are excited and ready to meet this boy! I still can't quite wrap my mind around the fact that I am having a BOY haha. I am a total girl mom and love having girls so this is going to be a change but I am SO excited to have a little guy in the house (fingers crossed for a big Mama's boy hehe). Just a few more weeks to go..............
