As I've proved in the past, I'm awful at updating this blog, so sorry for the huge gap yet again!
Today's picture was taken at 31 weeks and 3 days. Just a little under 9 weeks to go!
Two weekends ago Kevin and I moved to Clinton! We're renting an adorable condo right next to the marina. I can't wait for warmer weather and for Declan to get here so we can go for walks in the new neighborhood together! We're finally able to use one of our wedding gifts! Thanks, Skizz :)
After 2 exhausting weekends, we're all moved in and even finished painting Declan's nursery! We've decided on a "Vintage Airplane" theme!
We had a growth ultrasound on February 19th to check on Declan's growth, since my belly was measuring a little on the big side. He was a perfect 3 and a half pounds! Right on track! We're really excited, except this means we're officially done with ultrasounds unless something else pops up. Hopefully the next time we see the little guy, it will be because we're holding him!
Declan has been moving around SO much and my stomach is doing rolls all of the time. It's really cool to see. Other symptoms I'm having are some SERIOUS heartburn (ouch!) and lots of aches and pains. Luckily, my husband is absolutely incredible and has stepped up a lot.
I thought it might be fun to put together some of the Bump pictures to see the progression. It really brings out the growth in my cheeks and arms... oh, and the bump, too! Haha
On to the stats!
How far along? 31 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss? Last appointment was 166, taking us to 22 pounds gained!
Maternity clothes? Maternity clothes are my only clothes haha except, of course, sweats :)
Stretch marks? Still nothing!
Sleep? ...What's that? Declan is getting me ready for motherhood! I wake up a lot during the night and have trouble getting back to sleep... Mainly due to heartburn. I sleep like a champion during the day, though. I'm pretty sure I napped through our entire Saturday.
Best moment last week? One of my students is making me a keychain that says Declan on it in one of her classes. Corny, but it was a highlight of the week when she told me :)
Movement? Outrageous amounts of movement
Food cravings? Tomato and cheese sandwiches... In fact, I'll probably make one as soon as this post is done.
Labor signs? Wayyyy too early.
Belly button in/out? No more innie here. This belly button has popped!
What I miss: Sleeping on my back... and wine. Oh, wine.
What I am looking forward to: We'll start birthing classes next week!! We're hoping for a natural, medication free birth (unless Declan or I are in danger, then the doctors can do what they need to)
Milestones: No real milestones this week!
