I was so tired this day..but you can’t tell by my squinty eyes at all, right?!!?
How far along: 31 weeks!
Total weight gain: gained 18 lbs total.
Maternity clothes: Still able to wear most tops, but pants these days are either workout pants, leggings, or maternity.
Stretch marks: Just the ones from Christmas Eve on my chest, but still using the amazing tummy stretch mark oil {here} and the chest cream {here}
Sleep: Still getting up every night to go pee and now it has escalated to twice a night..oh joy;)
Best moment of this week: Going to a girlfriends cabin for some r&r..was so great to have girlfriend time even if it wasn’t exactly smooth. Had another bout of contractions while up there and had to take a Terb pill, and thankfully they stopped. Then we all had to leave a night early because of a snow storm that was coming in and expected to trap us there for days. Amazingly enough, the trip was still perfect..even with all of that!
Miss anything: Exercise {other than casual walks and yoga}, beer and wine. But the things I get to experience now completely outweigh those:)
Movement: SO much movement. My belly looks like something is literally trying to come out of it at times…
Food cravings: Didn’t have anything specific this week
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Have you started to show yet: Yes, and I can’t believe I still have 9 more weeks of growth to go!
Gender: Boy!!
Labor signs: Just the contractions, although my doctor said they havent done anything to ‘change’ whats going on down there yet, praise God!
Belly button in or out: The whole thing is out now..and I find it hilarious
Wedding rings on or off: On, on the days that I actually wear them..which I am trying to do more these days so I don’t look a hussy;)
Happy or moody most of the time: Super happy. Happy that he is in there cooking away, and praying it stays that way!
Looking forward to: J having spring break this week. It has been so nice having extra time with him. And just knowing that neither one of us is going out of town anymore until this little man arrives is comforting!
