Our Baby
By pregnancy week 33 your baby will weigh in over 4.2 pounds and will measure roughly 17.2 inches in length or more! (Our doctor estimated L.L.'s weight over 3 pounds)
Changes In Your Growing Baby
Your baby is steadily gaining weight during pregnancy week 33. For the remainder of your pregnancy your baby will continue to put on weight. The amniotic fluid surrounding your baby will reach its highest level at 33 weeks pregnant, then decline somewhat as your baby continues to grow larger.
During pregnancy week 33 and beyond your baby's brain is working hard at maturing. This week your baby's head will increase in size by as much as 2/8 of an inch due to rapid brain growth and maturity! Your baby's skin will also start transforming into a more pink color (I'm sure it's not pink for L.L.) as your baby starts to add fat to his body.
Your Body's Development
By 33 weeks pregnant your uterus now measures roughly 5 inches above your belly button. (CONFIRMED by our Doctor) You may have gained up to 28 pounds or more by this point in your pregnancy. (19 - 20 pounds for me so far). Many women will gain weight more rapidly in the third trimester due to the rapid growth in their baby. Most babies start gaining anywhere from five to nine ounces every week from pregnancy week 33 until delivery.

The countdown continues! It's really hard to believe that what's in that bump you see will be delivered next month!
