How Far Along? 31 weeks
Size of Baby: A pineapple
Weight Gain: 25 lbs since pre-pregnancy
Maternity Clothes: I’m all about wearing what’s comfy these days–which includes a lot of leggings & longer sweaters. I love that I’m able to wear many of my sweaters from before I was pregnant since they have an open front!
Nursery: The week has finally arrived! The nursery is being painted on Tuesday, which means Tom will be able to start hanging things up for me this week 🙂 Now we’re just waiting for the furniture to arrive!
Movement: I feel baby move whenever I lay down or am resting on the couch. This is still one of my favorite parts of being pregnant — I love sitting back & watching my belly move!
Symptoms: I feel like I have to pee {all-the-time!} I’ve also had dry hands lately which could also be due to the change in weather we’ve had recently in Chicago.
Sleep: Luckily I’m able to fall back asleep quickly after going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. However, lately I’ve been feeling baby move a lot in the morning, so once I’m up, I’m up! I’m also loving my naps on the weekends.
Cravings: Chocolate — I’ve been enjoying all of the sweet Halloween candy!
What I Miss: I can’t really think of anything different that I miss this week…
Best Moment This Week: Having our maternity pictures taken — I can’t wait to see how they turned out!
We also attended our last wedding of the year! It’s hard to believe that the next wedding we go to, we’ll need a baby sitter!
Looking Forward To: Our baby shower next weekend hosted by my mom & sisters 🙂
