Facts About My Pregnancy:
- Lower abdomen and back pain
- I can feel our baby's movement strongly now
- Having a hard time sleeping already
*** I was able to find a helper already... She was supposed to help me with different stuff especially with Meinhard when I already gave birth... She was with us since March 20. But still Meinhard wants me to take care of him, give his bath and feed him... He will always say, "he doesnt want a yaya, I only like Mommy to take care of me"....I just hope that he will get used of having her Ate Myra around so it will be easier for me especially when I give birth to the baby.

Honey, Meinhard and I had our shopping day for our "Bunso Baby"... Her things were almost complete since she will be using the old things of her Kuya Meinhard. We just bought some stuff for her and I really had fun shopping in the girl's section... There are so many cute stuff for little girls... I just hope that our baby is really a girl, or else all the things that I bought were pink...

But of course, I end up buying some things not listed in my shopping list like the avent bottles since it was on sale and some other stuff which I think our baby will need....

And Meinhard asked me to buy this cutie little shoes for her little sister... He told me this is nice for "Bunso Baby" and he will give this to her (Kuya is really sweet)...
Your Pregnancy: 33 Weeks
Last updated: August 2006

How your baby's growing:This week your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds and measures 17.2 inches from the top of his head to his heels. His skin is becoming less red and wrinkled, and while most of his bones are hardening, his skull is quite pliable and not completely joined. This will help him ease out of your relatively narrow birth canal.
Note: Every baby develops a little differently — even in the womb. Our information is designed to give you a general idea of your baby's development.
3 Questions About... Monitoring your baby's movements
Q1. How often should I feel movements?
Your baby should be moving as frequently as he has for the last month or so. Every baby has her own pattern of activity and there's no correct one. As long as you don't notice any major changes in your baby's activity level, chances are she's doing just fine.
Q2. Do I need to keep track of my baby's kicks?
For an added sense of security, many practitioners recommend that after 28 weeks, you monitor your baby's movements at least once or twice a day. There are lots of different ways to do these "kick counts," so check with your caregiver about how she wants you to track your baby's movements. Here's one common approach: Choose a time of day when your baby tends to be active. (Ideally, you'll want to do the counts at roughly the same time each day.) Sit quietly or lie on your side so you won't get distracted. Time how long it takes for you to feel ten distinct movements — kicks, twitches, and whole body movements all count. You should feel at least ten movements within two hours. (Don't worry; it probably won't take that long. Sometimes you'll feel ten kicks within the first ten minutes.) If you don't feel ten movements in two hours, stop counting and call your midwife or doctor.
Q3. What should I do if I think my baby's movements have slowed down or changed?
Ask your practitioner what kinds of changes she'd like you to be on the lookout for. In general, you should let her know anytime you've noticed an absence or slowdown of fetal movement. Your baby may simply be in a different position, but she might also be in distress. Your caregiver may have you come in for a non-stress test or biophysical profile to check on your baby.
This Week's Activity:
Wash your baby's clothing and bedding. You know all those adorable outfits you bought or received at your baby shower? You should wash anything that will go near your baby's skin to remove any irritants in the fabrics. The gentlest detergents are those designed for babies and those that are labeled hypoallergenic or good for sensitive skin.
