Thirty Three Weeks

I miss my camera. I feel like I've gotten alot bigger the last couple of weeks, but I have no way to show y'all.

How Far Along: 33 Weeks
Size of Baby: Peyton weighs a little over 4 pounds, about the weight of a pineapple.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I'm at +8 for this week. I think my doctor is getting a little concerned about me not gaining weight because at my last appointment she asked me if I was starving myself. I mean, I'm eating as much as I can on this low carb diet. When the recommended amount of carbs per day is 300 and I'm supposed to stay under 70, I'm bound to lose some weight.
Maternity Clothes: Most definitely
Movement: He must be feeling cramped because he's been doing a lot of stretching lately. I'll feel a foot on my left kidney and a hand in my right lung at the same time.
Gender: It's a boy! Peyton Graham Satterwhite
Sleep: Still trying to take naps or rest after school each day.
What I Miss: I miss pizza this week.
Cravings: Diet coke. Luckily for me, I can actually have it.
Symptoms: I'm getting to the point where I'm about ready for him to be here. I feel like I'm running out of room and my back and legs have started cramping. They say it's from the extra weight I'm carrying, but 8 lbs isn't really that much extra.
Best Moment This Week: Kaleb giving me a hug and telling me I'm so lucky. He's just started saying so many funny things lately. Oh, and he's discovered Raffi (thanks to Uncle Brad's gift card) and it's really fun to hear all the songs I used to listen to as a kid.
Wnat I'm Looking Forward To: It's not until next weekend, but I'm looking forward to my first baby shower for this little guy. Maybe that will make it all seem more real (as if the giant belly wasn't enough).
