31 week Bumpdate!

This week: I think the worst of the heat wave has passed so I'm hoping to feel a bit more motivated to get outside this week. I'm literally just counting down until summer school is over {9 days} and trying to fill up my afternoons with friends. Oh, and the Royal Baby was born! We were at the 99 when Jeff yelled out, "It's a boy!" from the breaking news on the TV. Will & Kate's anniversary is April 29 and ours is April 28, so it's been fun being pregnant at the same time, too. We had our 31 week doctors appt. and everything is on track! Baby looks good and has a heart rate of 140-142. She is head down, in position! 

How far along? 31 weeks! The countdown is officially in the single digits!

Baby's size: Baby P is the size of a pineapple! At our ultrasound yesterday, she was weighing in at 3 lbs 13 oz, in the 56th percentile. The doctor estimated that she should weigh about 7-7.5 lbs at birth. I think I can handle that :)

Total weight gain: Womp, womp. I knew that the gain would finally catch up. Apparently I've gained 9lbs since my last appointment, bringing the total to 14 lbs. It's still lower than I ever thought I would gain by this point and my doctor said that I'm right on track but I almost fell over when I saw the number jump that much in one visit! I blame it on the heat and Sonic. I want to keep it under 25, so it looks like Rocky and I will be hitting the streets again!

Maternity clothes? Same. I bought a few more skirts and tanks at Old Navy and TJ Maxx, a mix of maternity and regular. I also ventured into Motherhood Maternity for the first time and was appalled at the prices and quality of some of the clothes. I'm definitely looking forward to wearing regular clothes again.

Stretch marks: Still just my thighs.

Sleep: It depends on the night. Most mornings I wake up feeling like I slept for an hour but I'm actually sleeping better once I can get settled. Getting settled is a project, though.

Best moment this week: We got to see our sweet little peanut! I was so excited to have an ultrasound and baby girl was cooperative and even smiled for us! :)

chunka cheeks & smiles!

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach. Regular clothes shopping.

Movement: Lots of pitter patter right under my ribs and much bigger movements. Nothing painful but I can just feel the difference in her size now. She is now head down and I can usually tell what the movements are.

Food cravings: Same old. Cold drinks and fruit.

Food aversions: Nothing new.

Gender: 99.9% sure it's a girl! 

Belly button - in or out? It's starting to pop out but stays kinda flat most of the time.

Wedding rings - on or off? Still on

Symptoms: Pelvis pain is mostly gone. Definitely there when I move a certain way but nothing like what it was. Other than that, no complaints!

Mood: Happy, happy! Loving my sweet family!

Looking forward to: 9 more days until my sanity is back. SO many good things coming up! Baby showers, bridal showers, parties! Also planning a weekend getaway with the hubs!
