33 Weeks! Already?

I'm 33 weeks today! Pregnancy #3 is flying by. I thought my second one was quick, but this is just crazy. I can't believe that I'll be having a baby in less than 7 weeks. Woohoo!

• With Bailey, we took a picture every week in the same outfit to see how much I grew.
• With Lou, Bailey and I took a picture almost every week in the same outfit to see how much I grew.
• With Parker, both girls (or just me if they were already in bed) and I have taken a picture each week when we remember and in the same outfit whatever I have on!

We haven't taken today's 33 week picture yet so here are some pics at 32/33 weeks of all three pregnancies. If bare belly shots scare you, then just squint. It makes me look thinner anyway!

Gestational Diabetes Update: So far so good! I'm still peeing on a stick once a day to check my ketones and checking my blood sugar four times a day. Not the most fun process, but it's doable. Next week we will start weekly Biophysical Profile ultrasounds to keep an eye on Parker's growth and the amniotic fluid. We are excited to get to see her once a week!

At this point in a "normal" pregnancy, a woman can expect to gain about a pound a week. At this point in my "abnormal" pregnancy, I've lost a total of 1 lb over the last 4 weeks (instead of a potential gain of 4 lbs). This is not a concern because the baby and I are healthy so I'll just consider that my weight loss program is starting early! At 33 weeks, I've gained a total of 20 lbs. Not to shabby!
