Week 31


How far along?   31 weeks
Total weight gain:  15 lbs
Symptoms:  Heartburn and shortness of breath.  It's getting crowded in here!!  Felt baby's first episode of the hiccups this week!  It was pretty cute :)
Am feeling:  Uncomfortable.  I huff, puff and grunt when putting on shoes and socks, sitting up ... it's not fun. 
Best moment this week: Another check-up, another healthy baby!  But the BEST moment was by far my baby shower!!  So many fun things this week -- my 30th birthday, multiple meals at my favorite restaurants, and a baby shower.  I feel this HUGE sense of relief now that we have some of the essentials.  Also, my wonderful husband assembled the crib and our nursery now looks like a nursery! :)  My heart is incredibly happy and full after this week!  
Miss anything? A good sweaty workout ~ I really miss interval training on a treadmill.  Right now, I guess I'm just happy that I am still running! 
Food cravings:  Grapes, strawberries and chocolate.  
Maternity clothes:  SO incredibly sick of all my maternity clothes.  I can't wait to wear normal clothes again!
Sleep:  Still sleeping pretty well, but very hard to sit up once I'm down!
Gender: Boy
Stretch Marks: None yet - hopefully on my last bottle of Mustela stretch mark cream.  I sure hope this expensive stuff works.  I've been religious about slathering it on twice a day!
Labor signs:  None yet.  
Looking forward to: Setting up all the gifts we received and another shower in February!  We have also reached the point where we see the Dr. every 2 weeks, which definitely makes this feel very real!  YIKES!  :)  Definitely hitting the nesting and organizing stage of pregnancy... I will be planning, organizing and cleaning from here on out!
