33 weeks, coundown has begun!

I've just reached 33 weeks mark yesterday and yes, the countdown has begun! Nothing really new to report except for the 4d ultrasound we got at about 29 weeks! You can see the pictures here: http://www.theluvbaby.blogspot.com

They are incredible! My baby, looks like a baby! Fat little cheeks and everything! My belly seems to showcase that my baby is pudgy. I can't walk down the street w/out someone asking me if I'm due any day now, if I'm carrying twins, or tell that my baby will be a big girl. What are they trying to scare the crap outta me?

The past few weeks I've gotten a bit more tired and it has been harder to sleep. Someone told me its my body adjusting to the sleep schedule my baby will have, which made perfect sense! I can only sleep 3-4 hour stretches, and will wake up wide eyed for no good reason. So my new thing is to just go to bed right after work, wake up and eat etc, and go back to sleep again. And sneak in naps whenever I can...which has helped alot! Instead of trying to force a 8 hour sleep shift, sneaking in smaller naps have made me feel much more refreshed. Its not real sleeping, but its better than nothing. I guess I'll be doing that for the next 18 years.
