I went to the dr today for my check up.
Weight - gained 2 lbs, at a total of 23 lb weight gain which is on the low side of normal.
Blood Pressure - 107 over 70, again the low side of normal
Measuring - "just fine", I always mean to ask him what I'm measuring at every appt but always forget
Baby's Heart Beat - 144 which he said is a good strong beat
Baby's Position - Head down with his booty on my left and his feet continuously pushing on my ribs on my right (I could have guessed that though without the dr telling me)
My next appt is on the 18th of June, so 1 day less of 2 weeks from now, and we'll be doing an ultrasound (yay!!!), talking about labor (scary!!!), and also checking labor progression ... wow, while I hope I don't go late, but it's crazy to think I could have a baby in a matter of weeks! I'm excited though. Anyway, here are my pictures for 33 weeks, and I was only measuring 41 3/4 inches, which is only 1/4 of an inch bigger than last week. Although today I feel 10x more ginormous than yesterday even.
Wow, I am completely exhausted today. I hardly got any sleep last night because I was being eaten alive by bugs (or at least it felt like it ... I have like 3 bug bites this morning), I couldn't breathe because I was stuffed up, my throat was completely dry even after a drink of water, I had to get up to pee probably 4 or 5 times, and my legs were aching when I would lay in one spot for a long time. I think that was probably the worst night's sleep I've gotten in a long time. Hopefully I didn't toss and turn too much and keep Shane up too. I haven't had any energy to do anything, but also haven't been able to take a nap. It takes me probably an hour to fall asleep because every time I start to drift, I start to get uncomfortable and have to move. I feel like I have a 20 lb weight hanging on me and I went to go shopping for some stuff for Tayson, and got to the baby isle, but then had to leave because I was too tired. Sad huh? I thought so. Anyway, done venting.

Whew, what a fun-filled week we had last week! We ended it by strolling

You know that October 18th is way more than "1 day less of 2 weeks from now," right?
Yeah, I'm sorry you feel so tired and crummy. Bad news is that it's not going to get any easier to sleep until you've delivered. :( But at least after that you can sleep well for the few hours between feedings!
wow, I don't know where that came from, but i'm glad you caught it because I never would have. Let's hope I have a dr's appt before then, condsidering, Tayson will be coming before then. haha
You finally updated this thing...sheesh! So, your belly looks a lot like mine...I wonder why. And as far as peeing 4 of 5 times a night, I know EXACTLY how you feel! But it helps a little the fact that I get up at 4 in the morning so my body has been trained to just wait till then so I only wake up once to pee, unless its on a weekend and I sleep in. And as far as energy...I felt the same way a few weeks ago, but for some reason the last few days (about a week and a half) I have hed much more energy in the evening that I could actually keep the house clean instead of let Brian do it, and make dinner every night. So, that might be getting better real soon. I know you are eating healthy, or at least you were last time we talked, so I don't think that has anything to do with it, but anyway...good luck. And, yeah, I hope you have a Dr. Appt before then too. Crazy girl! =)
