how far along? 33 weeks
total weight gain: still none (I lost a lot of weight in my 1st and 2nd tri) but I'm ALMOST at my break even point
maternity clothes? my god yes
sleep: is becoming very difficult to get comfortable. I can't fall asleep, I have restless leg syndrome, and I have to pee 8 times a night. Fun times
best moment this week: getting our daughter's room organized and washing clothes, blankets, etc
movement: she is still active, but not as active as she used to be about 4 weeks ago. Usually she likes to tap dance on my bladder at night
gender: girl
labor signs: I'm starting to have contractions, especially when I get stressed out or do too much
belly button in or out? still an innie
food cravings: cheese enchiladas - all the time. Only issue is I don't have much room in my stomach so I can't eat much in one sitting, but I'd be happy to eat cheese enchiladas at each of my six meals (or more lol!)
what i miss: feeling like a normal human being. Wearing my contact lenses - The last week or so my eyesight has changed to where I can't wear my contacts. I have the feeling my astigmatism is off slightly which means I can still see fine with my glasses. My vision should go back to normal once I deliver.
what i am looking forward to: getting closer to meeting our daughter
weekly wisdom: don't dump all of the fun stuff you get from your baby shower in the baby room. Organize it right away so it doesn't become so daunting. I'm also glad that I started washing now in case I get even huger than I am now and can't move.
milestones: Hitting 33 weeks. Although she still has time to cook in the oven, she likely will be just fine if I do deliver now with little to no complications. That's a comforting thought. Don't get me wrong she needs to stay in the belly a little longer (even with all of my complaining about how uncomfortable I am) but it's a reassuring thought.

I can't believe you are at 33 weeks already! You're in the home stretch! Hang in there - it does get more uncomfortable, but the payoff is the best. :)

Calcium sups are supposed to help with RLS, btw. I had it during my PG and was going nuts, but the calcium did the trick for me after my midwife recommended it.
