How far along: 31w1d
Total weight gain: 21lbs
Size and growth of the baby: about 3.3 lbs. & over 16 inches long
From my weekly email: This week, your baby is heading into a growth spurt. [S]he can turn his or her head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath the skin. Your baby is probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
Sex: it's a surprise!
Maternity clothes: lots!
Sleep: it's been a bit better this week
Best moment(s) of the week: having our first baby shower!!
Movement: yep!
Food cravings/aversions: Loved banana nut muffins this week!
Morning sickness: nope
Symptoms: more back pain a heartburn, but that's to be expected, right?!
Belly button in or out: in, but flattening
What I miss: being able to stand up quickly
What I'm looking forward to: taking our prenatal class this weekend!
