31 Weeks

How far along?: 31 weeks! 

How big is baby?:  Over 16 inches in length and around 3.3 pounds. 

Weight gain/loss?: +3 for the overall. I have an appointment on Thursday, so we shall see! 

Stretch marks?: I should change this to say, besides the few that Brayden left, none. 

Maternity clothes?: Yes, please. If I am not in maternity clothes, I am in large tshirts!

Sleep?: Pretty well still. I have been waking up in the middle of the night lately for an hour or two- for no reason, just wide awake. Sometimes I play Angry Birds, sometimes I read blogs... but I am always wishing I could just sleep. 

Food cravings?: Donuts. Make it stop!

Gender?: We are having a girl! 

Movement?: Yes! I can tell she is getting bigger as her kicks and punches are getting stronger and more visible. Brandon watched the other night as my stomach jolted and moved. It is just insane. 

Belly button?: I officially have an outie. My hubs thinks its gross, mostly because mine never popped out with Brayden. 

What are you looking forward to this week?: My manicure tonight (much needed), our appointment and ultrasound on Thursday, and getting more things ready in her room now that Brayden's been successful for 2 nights in his big boy bed! 

Baby girl can turn her head from side to side, and she is busy plumping up! She will continue to be active, which is a great sign that all is well. Her busiest time it seems is right about when I crawl into bed- go figure- so I hope that doesn't stick around! :) It is just incredible to feel her move and squirm, even though once in a while they are painful! 

Lately, I can not stop dreaming about the baby. I have dreams about delivery, the first days home, and what life will be like afterward. They are all pretty fuzzy and I don't remember many details, but when I wake up, I am just SO excited to meet her. 

Her room is coming together nicely. I couldn't help myself the other night and I put the crib sheet and the bumper on, even though I said I would give Brayden a week in the big boy bed. I didn't tie the bumper because we still have to move the mattress back up, but I love the way it looks. Photos to come! :) I am waiting on one more wall hanging which I will be able to share before she comes, but I also decided to do her initials on the other wall- so that will have to wait!
