Well Don’t I Feel Huge

oy.

If this is 33 weeks, I’d just like to say that I’m askeered of 40.

Officially- I am bigger than when I delivered both other kids at 35 and 36 weeks.

Miraculously- still have a functioning cervix.

Mostly- I’m grateful. This is awesome. I’m up. I’m running (with huffing and puffing, but still). I’m taking care of sick kiddos and running errands and not strapped to a hospital bed and monitors with no dignity or underware. Life is good.

Small Request- If we could arrange to have my left leg not go numb in every position known to man, that’d be good. K thnx bai.

  1. You look great!! The left leg numbness is sciatica from the pregnancy and it will probably go away after the baby is born. There’s some simple exercises that you can get from an orthopaedic surgeon or a quick visit to physical therapy.
    Great LO too!!

  4. You look adorable! With my second son at 33 weeks I could set a full size dinner plate of food on the “ledge” and eat off it!

  6. You look FABULOUS!
    I think #3 pregnancy was the hardest…I hurt everywhere, and got real big real quick. Easiest labour and newborn baby though!!

  7. You look awesome! And I can certainly relate :) Been stalking your blog for a few weeks now and I’m “coming out” by tagging you (don’t worry, it a virtually painless one :)

    Take care!

  8. Pregnancy #3 was the hardest for me because I went FULL TERM. She was born exactly on her due date and not a minute sooner. It drove me insane to be pregnant for ONE WHOLE WEEK longer than the other two. She is the loudest of them all and my husband claims she’s his favorite because that child has SPUNK.

  11. I think both of us are very lucky to be able to have (so far) a normal pregnancy that most women get. It definitely is nice to not be on bed rest or having other problems! I totally hear you on the left leg going numb, I can be standing or even sitting and the stinkin thing will go numb. Very uncomfortable but then not as bad as what I have been through before. You definitely look tiny as well as beautiful and glowing! we may be carrying these babies bigger than our other two, but thank the Lord we still are carrying small compared to others! So glad your doing well!!! Yep, still prego here!

  15. I’ve been stalking your blog for a bit - just wanted to let you know, I’m currently 32 weeks and about twice the size of you!!!!!! LOL! But I have 9-10 pound babies, so that might have something to do with it!

  16. I live in the UK and visit your blog for your wonderful scrapbooking creations but have to admit to looking at your progressing pregnancy, all the best for your new little one and the rest of your family.
