Subtle Changes

33 weeks pregnant-
This week has brought a few changes for me and my growing body. I can truly say that I ‘feel’ pregnant now. I have always felt like I looked pregnant, but I never really felt it… until now! It’s a little bit harder to get up. I walk a little bit slower. I lose my breath a little bit easier. Shaving is getting a little bit harder, and forget about trying to tie my own shoes!
I went to the doctor today and she told me that the baby has positioned herself back into the ready position. She was hanging out up-side-down for a long time and then she came back up into my belly. Two weeks ago she was diagonal in my belly and just doing her own thing. Today she has moved back to my pelvis and is in a curled up position. Because she is back into my pelvis stretching up my abdomen, she has stretched my belly. I am officially as big as I should be and everything is measuring normal. I had the notion that I would be working up until I popped, but now that I am feeling bigger and moving slower, that decision will have to be revisited in about a month! Oh yeah, and today at the doctor’s office I got to feel her heal. I’m not sure how the doctor knows what we are touching, but I’ll trust that she knows a thing or two… I don’t think I’m her first pregnant lady! I have always known her butt, but today I got to feel her foot. It’s tiny!
