Total weight gain/loss: 4 pounds but I lost the last two weeks so she said I am right now track.
Maternity clothes?  Yes, trying to hold off buying any new ones but I don't know this belly is outta control.
Stretch marks? Had them before pregnancy and getting a few new ones. I am ok with that.

Food cravings: Yes whoppers from Burger King & Guacamole
Best moment this week: My doctor's appointment because I asked so many questions about labor & delivery. She was so cool about everything. I am so excited. 
Miss Anything? Sleeping on my belly. Oh boy I can't wait!
Movement: Yes but different. More painful jabs & swipes. Ouchie mama.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Brushing my teeth still.
Have you started to show yet: Yes.
Gender: Unknown
Labor Signs: Lost part of my mucus plug. Doctor told me it's normal & that to worry if I leak fluid. I had lower bottom pressure over the weekend. Not sure what that was about. I didn't have to go to the bathroom. But it sure felt like it.  
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? Off & my husband came home from school and saw my hand & he joked like he was upset. That guy lost his ring 2 years into our marriage lol.  
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy & in love. I always get this weird feeling over me when I see something I love or a person I love. I get all excited.
Looking forward to: Maternity leave. :) oh & Christmas.
Doctor's appointment: Gained 3 pounds, measuring 37 weeks, blood pressure great, Hb 130, clean urine, & everything is looking good. I got my t-dap shot. Let me tell you, it got puffy & felt like someone punched my arm. I had a huge bruise & bump for a few days.
Randoms: Next appointment will be a few days before Christmas. She said she will check for dilation & Group B strep. She also said if I am dilated that she wont stop me from having baby :) I doubt it but hey worth a try. Not even sure if I want to be checked because the less hands the better but I am already getting my swab done so maybe.

Food cravings: Pumpkin pie, ice cream, pho, queso dip, & jerky
Best moment this week: Thanksgiving. I loved seeing my aunt & uncle. Being with family makes having a baby so much more real. That's all they talk about. I stuffed myself that day. Many days after as well.
Miss Anything? Moving a little faster than a turtles pace. I am just about done being pregnant now.
Movement: Yes. It has lessened. I heard that was normal. I can tell it's sleeping hours now.

Doctor's appointment: I saw my nurse practioner instead of my regular OB because I have been picking up full time hours at work. I didn't have any questions for her which I felt bad because at 33 weeks you'd think I'd have a ton of questions but I don't. Only for my doctor. I will see her this week. I lost 3 pounds before Thanksgiving ;) & everything else was normal.
Randoms: Pelvic pain, I can't get comfortable anymore to sleep. It feels like the baby is laying right on my lungs. I get full so fast but then merly 1 hour later I am starving. I have to sit in the recliner to get comfortable. I have been leaking colostrum since week 29. Only from the left boob. It's so strange. I wake up to a sticky shirt. Happens almost nightly. Let's see here what else can I bitch about ahaha. I swear pregnancy is a beautiful thing. But somethings us women have to put up with. I sweat like a hog  & breathe like a fat kid.
