31 weeks......just a few days late!

Ooof! After a CRAZY week, (with multiple nights of parent/teacher conferences, a field trip, changing lesson plans, technology training, data teams, and nasty weather) I am finally getting to make this post! I'm hoping that next week will finally slow down for a little bit---at least at work! I've been chasing my tail the past few weeks and I am pooped!!!!




How far along? 31 Weeks!
Symptoms? Just feeling uncomfortable. Round ligament pains on occasion, heartburn, sore hips. That lovely gas from the first trimester has come back (I know, gross, right?) Peeing ALL the time now, thanks to sweet boy treating my bladder like a squeeze toy.  On occasion, I can feel little man pressing into my rib, but usually he will just punch me directly in the bladder. I love his movements, but man, he's hurting me from time to time! Ouch!
Sleep: Sleeping well, just flipping like a pancake. Still getting up to tinkle once or twice every night.
Best moment this week: Making it to Friday! Ha....it was a LONG week! :)
Miss Anything? Cold, deli sammies. I've been listing off sandwich orders to Christopher for the day after delivery.
Movement: Baby dances all the time. I love seeing my tummy roll around in different directions. Sometimes he feels like he is pushed up and laying against my front, which is exceptionally uncomfortable. I usually try moving around to encourage him to change positions, but that usually results in him punching my bladder. Oh well. 9 weeks, kiddo! :)
Food cravings: Nothing in particular; I just have a good appetite. The scale at the doctor made me panic at my last appointment, so I am trying really hard not to give into so many temptations these last few weeks. OF COURSE, baby is due during the holidays....SO. Hmm. We will see how that goes. Yowza.
Gender prediction: Boy!
Labor Signs?  Nope
Belly Button in or out?  So small....so flat (but still an innie!)
Wedding rings on or off? Yesterday my fingers were a little puffy and my rings felt snug, but not to the point where they were hard to get off. I'm thinking I may stop wearing them soon, just in case.
Mood: Irritable....but that's nothing new....just escalated by pregnancy
Weekly Wisdom: Just. Breath. Hard times will pass!
Looking forward to: Passing out candy to all the trick-or-treaters that come a' calling! I love seeing the kiddos dressed up in their costumes--so fun! :)
