31 down, 9 (or less) to go!

How far along: 31 weeks. Baby is the size of a coconut and heading into a growth spurt (which means I am too, great.) Just 9 weeks to go, I wouldn't be upset if he came earlier :) Just as long as I am back from my trip to Vegas!

Maternity clothes: All day...
Sleep: I think I get enough sleep, not way comfortable but I am not waking up as often at night. I have had a few nights that I wake up wide awake in the middle of the night but luckily Jaden takes long naps, which means I usually get a nap in too!
Best moment of this week: My doctor appointment! It was my second appointment with my new doctor, and the first one Jason has gone to with me. I didn't like this new doctor at my first visit and really debated to change, but at this last visit we sat and talked about my plan during delivery and how to handle things. He is very quiet and calm, but easy to talk to. He already performs a lot of things that I mentioned I wanted in the delivery, which made me so relieved! Also, I was able to spend some time talking with my mom this week. We usually talk once a week and I love it, she is so easy to talk to and I tell her everything. Can't wait to have sleepovers with her next month!
Miss anything: Not being pregnant :) 
Movement: yep! It's not constant flutter movements, but I feel him punching and rolling so much during the day. I am more uncomfortable this time because he is so low and it's hard to sit for a long time. My hips start to hurt and he is always in the wrong spot...it wasn't like that with Jaden. 
Food cravings:  Very unhealthy things!! Oreos is my craving this week, and I've thought about how good it would be to dip the oreo in either peanut butter or rainbow chip frosting, then dip that all in milk. That's diabetes waiting to happen. Raisin bread, nutella, pumpkin and apple cider are also things I have been craving. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: not really. 
Have you started to show yet: I'm past showing, and just look huge :(
Gender: BOY!!! I have a feeling this one will have red hair. I had a dream the doctor told me he had a head full of red hair too. I hope he does! Jason was the cutest stinkin red head. 
Belly button in or out: Out. People make comments about it all the time, as if I don't know. 
Looking forward to: Getting the boys room done. Jaden's need painted and then we need to get the nursery done, duh. I'm excited for my trip to Vegas for Mona's wedding too! I'm glad I am able to make it, just wish I was going without a round face. The holidays are coming up and we will have family here for Christmas and my mom will be here for a week when the baby is born, I am excited to have family visit!

I feel like I have complained a lot this pregnancy, and reading how I answer these questions just confirm that, but honestly it hasn't been that bad. I just feel pregnant! The hardest part is feeling like I have no control over my body.

  1. I'm SO glad you're liking your doctor more. It's so important since you and your baby will be in his hands come delivery day. :) Now that you think that the little guy will have red hair, I'm excited to see if he does! :) Good luck in Vegas...you better not have the baby there! Counting the days until we get to come see you guys and the little baby!!!

  2. I know I will be so upset if the baby comes in Vegas! I have a doctor appointment the day before and he's going to do an exam to be sure I'm not on my way quite yet :)
