33 Weeks and the Countdown has started!

I went to the doctor last Monday at 32 weeks, but have been so busy to post. Sorry! I am now at 33 weeks. The doctor says everything is going perfect. My blood pressure went back up like the doctor wanted; it was 110/66. I gained 3 lbs. these last two weeks, which put me at 4 for the month. Not bad to almost be done and only have gained 23 lbs. I think I am over the whole weight gain drama. It is what it is, and it is all for Syd. Dr. Betterton tried her best to measure my belly last time. I don't know what I measured, but lets just say, when the doctor tries to measure your belly from bottom to top three times and you ask "Is everything ok?" and she says "well, I am trying to find the top of her and she seems to be a little big in there" Hmmmmm... lets think about this. I have been asking her if she is sure that July 16th is her due date and every time she says yes. When I asked her at this appointment, all she could say is "you know...they can come whenever they want." That tells me that she has no idea! Oh well, Syd will come when she wants, just not too early I hope. She is still moving around daily, but all her movements are right under my rib cage and are more pushing than kicking. The doctor says that probably means she is head down, getting ready. Her space is definitly limited, which causes me to move a little slower because she weighs more (about 4lbs. and 17 in. long) but she has moved down so I can breath. Which is a major plus.  Hope to keep the updates coming for all, but for now here is what Sydney has done to my belly the last couple of weeks. : )
