33 weeks

How far along? 33 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 15 lbs. (Although there is some controversy over this number, I think I got weighed in at a bad time and their scale is off)
Maternity clothes? My maternity clothes (mostly the tops)aren't fitting well. The shirts are becoming too short, but I don't want to buy more stuff this close to D-day.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Cruel and unusual punishment. I need to sleep now because I won't when the baby comes and I can't because I am so uncomfortable.
Best moment this week: Finishing my last day of contract work at the clinic! Now just doing the one job.
Movement: He is a mover and a shaker.
Food cravings: Appetite not so good now. I feel stuffed all the time. So mission "Force Snacking" is underway.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks contractions have surely increased over night it seems.
Belly Button in or out? Out.
What I miss: Sleep.
What I am looking forward to: Fridays weigh in so I can prove to everyone that the last one was a fluke.
Weekly Wisdom: DO NOT WATCH SOMEONE ELSE GIVE BIRTH RIGHT BEFORE YOU DO!

Three classes down and one more to go. Mike did the daddy bootcamp class, which he enjoyed. I did the breastfeeding class, which caused me to hold my nipples for a good two days. The hosiptal tour and registration is what we did yesterday. I never realized how much paper work went into having a baby. The birth certificate is filled out and ready to go. The last class is Babies, Booties, and Baths.

Work is really getting tough now. Three twelve hour shifts in a row is going to be hard. The only good thing about it is that I will have four days off in a row, if I make it. Turned in maternity leave info to my employer. So I guess stuff is getting done. It's weird to say, but I will full term in a little more than three weeks!
