Week 33--all of a sudden the number of weeks left is getting remarkably small! This week our baby girl hit the 4 pound mark and is more than 17 inches long, or the size of a pineapple. That is quite a change from the little fruits we started out with! This week baby girl is working on hardening her bones and putting on weight.
I am continuing to feel pretty good although I am starting to have a little bit of lower back pain, which I am blaming on spending over 3 hours in the car doing visits on Tuesday. I am hoping it will go away but it is pretty tolerable for now so it is nothing to worry about. I am still working out and sleeping okay.
We went to the doctor on Monday and everything looks good. I am measuring on target and the baby's heartbeat sounds nice and strong. The doctor said the baby feels like she weighs around 4 or 4 1/2 lbs so everything seems smooth. After a week off next week we will go to weekly appointments...fun!
We plan to work on decorating the nursery this weekend and also got our last big purchase we needed to be ready for baby girl's arrival:
We were able to get our car seat off the registry using some gift cards from the showers and a discount coupon. Next we will figure out how to actually install it in the car and have it inspected but it feels good to know that we have everything big that we need taken care of. We are getting more and more excited to meet baby girl but hope she stays put long enough to get big and healthy (and to let me finish up my work)!
