31 weeks - Surprise Baby Shower


How far along: 31 weeks and 5 days.
Fruit/Vegetable Comparison and Size: Pineapple - Over 16 inches long.
Total weight gain: 26 lbs. 
Exercise: 1 prenatal yoga class, 2 gym days
Maternity clothes: Anything comfortable... sometimes Matt's shirts?
Sleep: Definitely tired by the end of the day and ready to fall asleep. Still getting up once at about 5am to go to the bathroom.
Best moment(s) of this week: Well... technically this was last Saturday, but we'll call it this week. My sister-in-law Kim and her sister Sheryl put together a surprise baby shower for us where Matt's family from Pittsburgh came along with friends from the Philly area. Kim also got in contact with some of my friends and family from Oregon and had them send items/cards to the shower, so it felt great to feel so loved from across the states. 

Me, my niece Lena, Kim (sister-in-law), Laura (sister-in-law) and Mom Roth
Miss anything: Just feeling like my old self. Don't get me wrong, I love being pregnant, but it will be great to be more mobile once the baby is born.
Movement:I think he's been in every possible position this week - side to side, head up, head down, diagonal---let's just hope he gets head down and stays there in the next few weeks.
Food cravings: Bagels with cream cheese, Salad with cucumbers, cranberries, sunflower seeds and ranch and spicy foods
Symptoms: Just feeling a little low on energy, but still truckin' along. 
Have you started to show yet: Mmmhmm, people are starting to wonder if I am really due in July.
Gender: Still a boy!
Belly button in or out: Out!
Wedding rings on or off: Same as before, still on.
Looking forward to: A nice long 3 day weekend with Matt and then going to the midwife on Wednesday. Hopefully he's still doing well in there!
