31 Weeks With Baby #2

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 31 Weeks!

Total Weight Gain: 20 lbs. I cut out wheat again completely (no cheating) and I'm only eating an unnaturally sugary treat once a week.  My belly is growing bigger and I'm not gaining.  I'm sure I will, but I guess I didn't need to this past month as the last month I put on too much:)

Maternity Clothes: I need to break out my bigger sized Cami tops.  Mine a starting to not want to cover my whole belly.  I'm still rotating three different pants for work and maternity tops.

Best Moment this week: Finding a dresser and time to go get it as a date day with Dan.  My mom came down this weekend and we're going to get to hang out, just the two of us, tomorrow. 

Gender: B.O.Y.

Movement: All the time it seems like.  He has his quiet times when he's sleeping, but for the most part he is quite active.

Food Craving: I sure hope that this baby is going to be a less picky eater as I am craving such healthy food.  All I want are fruits and vegetables and I've also been craving a lot of recipes that call for balsamic vinegar.  Is it natural to want to drink it straight?

What I miss: An ice cold margarita.  It's starting to get warm and I'd love to have one:)

Sleep: Sleeping very well still. By this time with Svea I need two pillows to help support my hips and I don't even need that.  I am noticing that when bedtime hits I'm not just tired, but exhausted again.

What we are looking forward to: Finishing up little boy's room and getting some baby boy clothes from Matt and Lacee.  I'll feel so much better when I know that if he comes he'll have a space that functions well for a baby.

Symptoms: I'm really feeling him now pushing against my lungs and ribs.  It's hard to bend over to the floor and when Svea sits on my lap certain positions are not comfortable with her little body leaning against me.  Other than that I'm just getting rounder and larger:)
