Hi everbody,

First of all, I wish everybody a Very Happy New Year 2008! This is going to be a memorable year for all of us since our little one is arriving soon...

I had my 33 weeks appt yesterday. The baby head is not down yet, I can feel the head by touching near my naval! Baby pushes my tummy with the head whenver there is a loud noise around or when my daughter speaks something. I can feel a elbow/leg on my right side of my tummy. I think it is really less space in there. I am keeping my fingers crossed when my baby' s head will turn down. In next appt, they will hv the strep test. I am feeling so hungry sometimes and not so hungry sometimes so eating as it is required. Everything else is on mark.

Does anybody have any cravings? I love to eat masaledar spicy food and sometimes for something sweet... I read somewhere that eating little bit of chocolate now and then will give a happy baby, so enjoy girls!

My mom is arriving here on Jan 21st, eagerly waiting for it. Planning to work until 3rd week of jan. Still thinking how many months I shd plan to stay home with new baby before returning to work. Anybody else planned? Hope everybody has parents/in-laws visiting to look after during delivery. I am planning to pack my hospital bag just in case... n also wash new baby clothes n keep ready when I hv some energy.

Keep updating and take care girls,

Wish you also very happy new year. Good to know that everything is fine with you. Abt baby' s position, there is still time.
Today I had my 3rd trimester ultrasound and they said everything is good. Baby' s head is down and weighing 5pounds 4ounces (approx)now. Also said that amniotic fluid levels are also good.
We are happy to know that. Couldn' t see our baby' s face clearly though. She is mushed close to my tummy. I can still feel her hiccups and kicks.
Good luck everybody. Keep updating and take care.
