How far along: Thirty three weeks as of Wednesday, May 28, 2014.
Size of baby: Lima Bean is over17 inches from head to heel, the size of a pineapple, and weighs a little over 4 pounds. Based on last week's ultrasound, I am guessing she is now about 4.75 pounds.
Maternity Clothes: Yep.
Movement: Lima Bean is a mover and a shaker!
Sex of baby: It's a girl!
Sleep: Sleep was hard to come by this week. First, Henry got sick at the beginning of the week. On Wednesday night he had a 103 degree fever. After freaking out (he has never had a temperature above 101 before), we called the doctor, who was surprisingly nonchalant about it. He basically recommended Motrin and watching for other symptoms. Henry slept well that night, but his fever was still 102 on Thursday. He was pretty cranky but otherwise symptomless. By Friday night, although his fever had gone down to 101 or so, he woke up at 10pm or so coughing. We suspected croup, and everyone's sleep was horrible that night. On Saturday, I realized that I was getting sick, too. I had a low-grade temperature of 100.5 with a sore throat and general aches. Saturday sleep was bad for everyone again. But by Sunday, Henry was getting better. My temperature was normal, but I definitely had a full-blown cold. So my sleep was bad because of congestion and coughing. Ugh!
What I miss: A good night's sleep, the ability to take medicine for a cold.
Cravings: Soup, smoothies. I am definitely craving fruit much more frequently this pregnancy than in Henry's pregnancy.
Symptoms: Backache, stuffy nose made worse by a cold.
What I'm looking forward to: Honestly, getting over this cold at this point!
