Weekly Update: 33 Weeks!

WEEK: 33!!! 7 more to go!

MONTH: 8

TRIMESTER: 3

GENDER: Girl!

THIS WEEK THE BABY IS: This week baby you weight a little over 4 pounds (heft a pineapple) and has passed the 17-inch mark whoo hoo! Your rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and your skeleton is hardening. The bones in your precious skull aren't fused together, which allows them to move and slightly overlap, thus making it easier for you to fit through the birth canal. (The pressure on the head during birth is so intense that a lot of babies are born with a conehead-like appearance.) It is ok baby, I think you will be the cutest conehead ever!These bones don't entirely fuse until early adulthood, so they can grow as his brain and other tissue expands during infancy and childhood.

SYMPTOMS: Besides the usual pubic bone pain and lower back pain. I now have KILLER heart burn! It is different than pre-pregnancy heart burn though. Also I now have cankles (they are so cute... not!) Also, have some crazy crazy dreams that don't makes sense!

CURRENT MOOD: EXCITED!

CURRENT CRAVING: Bean and Cheese burritos and Hot Chocolate!

CURRENT WORRY: As of now I am working on the final touches and making sure I have EVERYTHING I need before Mr. G leaves town.
