Weekly Update 31 Weeks

{last week}

How far along? 31 weeks, 6 Days

Baby Size: Pineapple

Total weight gain: 26 lbs (at my 32 week appt) 

Maternity clothes? Yes, and unfortunately beginning to not really fit in much.

Stretch marks? My belly is still clear! 

Sleep: Pretty prepared for a baby now I believe. I wake up constantly and can't 

go back to sleep for a couple of hours. Usually I need some power naps. 

Best moment this week: On this last day of week 31, my sister in law went into labor 

and we stayed at the hospital waiting on my sweet little niece. Made me even more anxious!

Miss Anything? The ability to not run out of breath so fast...tying my shoes is a workout. 

Movement: Yes, she is always squirming around and sticking out of my belly. 

My belly is forever lopsided from Little Bit. She's also hiccuping a lot more lately. 

The end of this week, people started saying that it looked as if I dropped already. ??

Food cravings: Nothing particular over the last few weeks...although I randomly thinks of frostys.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Once I hit the third trimester, my morning sickness

seemed to get kicked up a notch. I'm back to throwing up 1-2 times a week. 

Gender: PINK Lady

Symptoms: Towards the end of this week some new symptoms started...I'll share more 

of those in week 32 since that's when they really kicked in! 

Belly Button in or out? A little of both!  

Wedding rings on or off? On -- but noticeably tighter

Mood: Great, but getting slightly uncomfy and tired. 

Looking forward to: Her arrival. It's getting closer and closer. I can't 

believe it is single digits now! After seeing my niece, I am even more antsy

to meet this Little Princess! :)

Weekly Update: 28 Weeks

{last week}

How far along? 28 weeks, 6 Days

Baby Size: Eggplant

Total weight gain: 18lbs so far! 

Maternity clothes? Rocking them like they're hot. 

Stretch marks? Still looks like I am avoiding that right now :)

Sleep: One night it is great and the next night it is not so great. 

I'm also having to pee a bit more now that Miss Priss is getting bigger. 

Best moment this week: Doctor's visit and hearing her sweet little heartbeat. 

However, I really didn't like my gestational diabetes test. That crap was NO Fun.

Thankfully my mom came with me and we made a fun day out of it! 

And we got her furniture and set it up on Friday! WOOHOO. I am in love! 

Miss Anything? Just the flexibility and ease to sit certain ways and put shoes on. 

Movement: She was on a roll this week. Body parts sticking out -- stomach doing rolls and 

freaking my husband out...I LOVE it. 

Food cravings: Sloppy Joes. That has been a random craving throughout the pregnancy. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: I believe I've gone about two weeks without throwing up!

Gender: Ballerina

Symptoms: Backaches and frequent peeing. That's about it.  

Belly Button in or out? A little of both!  

Wedding rings on or off? On

Mood: Great mood! 

Looking forward to: Reaching that 30 week mark and letting the countdown begin!

I'm so excited about this little peanut of mine! Our shower is soon and I can't 

wait to finish the nursery and get things ready for her. It's getting close! 

Did you feel like your pregnancy 

flew by?

Weekly Update: 27 Weeks

{we missed our pictures this week, but luckily had this one}

How far along? 27 Weeks

Baby Size: Rutabaga {what the heck is that?}

Total weight gain: Around 16lbs

Maternity clothes? Every day. All day. 

Stretch marks? No but I've noticed my zebra line is higher than my belly button

And it is crooked. It's not a straight line -- that bugs me. 

Sleep: Some nights is awesome and others are not so great!

Best moment this week: Attending my sister in law's shower and seeing all of 

the beautiful things her baby received. I can't wait for my shower. Invitations went out this week!

Miss Anything? Being able to trim my bikini line and actually see what I'm doing. TMI.

Movement: Tons of it. I'm starting to think she's going to be an active child because she 

loves to move around all day. It's so wonderful to feel that! 

Food cravings: Had a friend chicken craving one day and I took care of that quick!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Still getting nauseous! 

Gender: Ballerina

Symptoms: Just feeling pregnant. My husband's boss pointed out that in pictures

my face looks fuller now. Nice. 

Belly Button in or out? One side is out a little more than the other. 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Mood: Great mood! 

Looking forward to: Completing the scrap book that I've started for my pregnancy. 

I want to have it out at the shower and of course have it for Little Bit to look back on. 

So excited about it! I can't wait to meet this little girl. I just want to kiss her all up!
