31 Weeks

Yesterday I turned 31 weeks, which means I’m down to the single digits –- as in only 9 more weeks left! On March 11^th I’ll be full term (37 weeks) so really in 6 weeks I’ll be ready to have this baby. If that’s not insane, I don’t know what is!!

Here’s a BIG tidbit for this week:

“This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 lbs (four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He’s probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby’s kicks and somersaults keep you up.”

Trouble sleeping? Why yes I am! Getting up 2-4 times a night to go potty, my sciatic nerve waking me up, Peyton’s kicks, and now I have trouble falling back asleep because of how excited I’m getting and all the things running through my mind. Now Steve’s telling me he’s having trouble sleeping because I’m taking up the whole bed (my sleep positions are limited to big sprawls, hee hee.) But like a good husband, he understands, and like a good wife, I don't wanna hear it. ha ha J

Tomorrow we’re taking our parents to a 4D ultrasound and I’m so excited! I’ll definitely post some pics of Peyton, which I think will look incredibly similar to him when he’s born.

Stay tuned!
