33 Weeks: Running Out Of Room + Running On Empty

How far along?: 33 Weeks.. 4 Days.

Maternity clothes: Nope, nothing new.

Stretch marks: Still the same as last week.

Sleep: Oh.. I am so tired. Week 33 is the week that has seen my toilet trips go through the roof and this does not stop at night. I wake up an incredible amount of times during the night with a full and very squished bladder.

Best moment this week: On Saturday your Dad and I spent the day off together and had a little play around with your car seat - putting it on the pram and learning how to use it. It's so tiny, I can already imagine you in there with a little blue blanket over you.

Miss anything?: I miss having energy and not having to spend a chunk of my day going to the toilet.

Movement: Still lots and lots. At times I think you are perhaps doing somersaults in there or trying to bust out of my skin. I love feeling all of your lumps and bumps and showing your Dad. I often stroke any hard lumps that come up on my stomach and wonder if you can feel it.

Food cravings: I think that I've finally had my first 'craving'! A couple of evenings back I would have done almost anything for a slice of birthday cake with thick icing! I'm also really enjoying orange juice and satsumas lately.

Anything making you queasy or sick? No.

Gender: Boy <3

Labour signs: No

Symptoms: 
No energy whatsoever. 
Lots of back pain! {Upper and lower}.
I have been having period like pains in my lower stomach just below the bump and sometimes shooting pains in the same place {I don't know what this is, I'm thinking that maybe you're laying low or it's just a bit of stretching}. 
At work today my vision went completely off. I could hardly see anything including the computer screen in front of me, it was really scary and it lasted for a good 10-15 minutes! I phoned the labour ward and we went through everything, I've been told to take it easy and phone back if it gets worse. It's worrying and frustrating because I never know if it's 'normal' for pregnancy or if I should be concerned.

Belly button in or out? Out.

Wedding rings on or off? On!

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy when I'm not tired {which unfortunately I am most of the time}.

Looking forward to: Our antenatal classes which start on Monday.

Also This week: We had the appointment with the anaesthetist yesterday regarding my scoliosis and whether this would effect whether or not I could have an epidural. The anaesthetist seemed to think even though it could be a little harder to do it wouldn't be a problem, so that was good! 

Your Daddy and Sammy wanted to get in on the 'bump post' this week!

Here we both are.. Your Dad - freshly shaven and your Mum - looking rather exhausted.
