31 Weeks

 ***I wrote this on Saturday so I'm just gonna leave the answers alone. =)***

31 weeks, 4 days
How far along?: 31 weeks. Yep, I was completely right in assuming this week was going to fly by. I swear that I just wrote my 30 week post yesterday. The rest of this month is going to be just about the same. Oi! Just in the next few days we have two birthday parties to attend to & C's 2 year well child check.

How big is Holden?: According to my WTE app, he is approximately 19 inches long, about 3.9 pounds & is STILL the size of the head of lettuce. lol The bump says he is15.2-16.7 inches long, 2.5-3.8 pounds & the size of a pineapple. Ah...he's somewhere around those parts. =)

Total weight gain/loss: +31 pounds...sigh.

Maternity clothes?: Nothing, but.

Symptoms: It's been a pretty good week as far as symptoms are concerned. I've certainly been tired & I still have to pee ALL.THE.TIME, but my heartburn is almost non-existent & so is my back pain. I do notice that my SOB is getting worse since my organs are running out of room & as Holden grows larger. His movements are also getting more pronounced & those occasionally cause some discomfort as well.

Stretch marks?: Yep, still just Lois so far though.

Sleep: I can never seem to get enough of it, unfortunately. I can only imagine how tired I will be when Holden actually arrives. Oi! That is about my ONLY fear when it comes to going from one kiddo to two.

Movement: He still isn't a big fan of moving "for us", but he does move constantly now. He's still 100% a night owl & it's really starting to worry me about his days & nights being so mixed up.

Food cravings: Still nothing really.

Gender: Baby Boy

Names: Holden Thomas (Brother)

Labor Signs: Nope, nothing yet.

Belly Button in or out?: It's definitely still in, but it is continuing to get more shallow. If it pops out it will definitely be when I am "done" though.

What I miss: Feeling like I still have plenty of time until this kid gets here! Seriously, I can not believe that it is August already. He REALLY is going to be here before we know it & I don't feel 100% ready for him yet.

What I am looking forward to: C's birthday party tomorrow & our trip to SunRiver on Thursday. It will likely be our last vacation as a family of 3.

Best Moment this Week: My baby boy turned 2 years old!!

Milestones this week: The wedding/engagement rings are officially off. =( I am wearing cheap costume jewelry for now in their place. I can't remember how long I was able to wear them with C, but I think it was a bit longer.
