how far along? 33 weeks
size of baby? Size of a Durian Fruit
heartbeat? 138 BPM at our last appointment
total weight gain/loss? +6 Ibs.
maternity clothes? All the way
stretch marks? A few
sleep? So I totally lied last week when I said sleep was fine,because as soon as I posted last weeks blog, I was up all night. I am getting up multiple times to go to the bathroom and now it takes me a while to fall back asleep and I wake up every time I turn...my body is just getting ready I guess!
best moment this week? Hearing the babe's heart beat and spending time with Drew. He's really started putting his hand on my belly and trying to feel for baby (who always stops moving as soon as Drew puts his hand on my belly), but I find it really sweet and tender, I love it!
movement? This baby get the hiccups like crazy so I am feeling that for a good portion of the day. When I'm sitting and calm I like to watch my stomach ripple and move. It's crazy looking!

food cravings? The sweet tooth has kicked in, NOOOOO!! It has been really hard for me to avoid all the sweet stuff and it doesn't help that Easter is right around the corner. I just want fresh baked cookies, ice cream, candy and the list goes on and on. As I'm typing this I want to go get a pazookie from BJs! (mmm...hot, fresh baked gooey cookie)!
gender predictions? We will find out May 26th!
what i miss? My belly not itching, it's really started to itch and I scratched so hard the other day it looked like there was a hicky on my belly...whoops!
what i'm looking forward to? I'm ready for the nesting phase to hit, my house is a desaster and I currently have no motivation to do anything about it. I did clean out my car the other day that may have been step one, I definitely don't want to bring a baby home in a dirty car.
how are you feeling? Overall good, but I think I'm starting to get Braxton Hicks. Drew and I went for a walk the other night and I thought I was going to die by the end, my stomach was so tight. I think I walked too fast, but I laid on the couch afterwards and when I got up I could barely walk because my lower back hurt so bad. It stinks too, because it is great walking weather and if I'm going to be indulging in all these sweets I need to do a little walking to combat some of the unwanted side effects of sweets.

If you haven't already, try coconut oil with 100% pure lavender oil on your itchy belly. It's my life saver!
Thanks, I do use coconut oil, but I haven't tried it with lavender!
