33 Weeks
I thought I would get in a pregnancy update before baby comes!
Baby Wyatt is a little over 4 pounds, and he can now tell the difference between night and day (for Wyatt that means day = sleep, night = boogie!) He is pretty active now, which makes me SO happy, because up until now he has been pretty mellow. I think he's finally (hopefully!) stopped doing somersaults, and most just likes to wiggles his hands and feet.
I am feeling good - just trying so hard to keep contractions at bay. I am craving gyros and candy apples, which have been the same cravings I've had every pregnancy. I'm also loving oranges and peaches, and am way too addicted to Metromint water. It's SO much yummier than just plain water, and when I have to chug water all day, it's great. But it's kind of ridiculously expensive.
Other than some heartburn, swelling, and normal 8-month pregnancy fun, I really do feel good, and I'm so thankful for that. I LOVE the end of pregnancy - I've talked about it before, it is just such a special time. That anticipation and getting ready to meet your baby, there is nothing in the world like it. Knowing this is my last time, I just want to cherish every single second of it! Wyatt's bassinet and crib are set up, his bitty clothes are washed and folded in his drawer, and he has a family (and many friends) who are so looking forward to seeing his sweet little face! But we are all praying that he stays put a few more weeks, so he can skip the whole hospital ordeal and be with his family where he belongs.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Love your picture. Saw it on FB a few minutes ago.
Beautiful picture of you, Vera! :)
Well, I am glad that you made it this far, but was hoping for a bit longer off of bed rest for you! I'll be having you in my prayers for you to keep the little bun in the oven for a while yet.
Oh, and your comment did post last time...not sure what is up with that. I'll have to see if there are any updates I need to do.
